About the operator
Don’t take it from us – here’s what people have to say about this operator:
- 697julietd0 contributionsLook no further, this is the tour!I was a bit apprehensive about booking given the sketchy looking website. However, after reading the reviews I thought to just go for it. Honestly, I’m glad that I did! The kids loved it, especially the abra ride. The tour guide was humorous, super knowledgeable, clear in instructions for the group. The tour covers lots of sites and you have the benefit of an air-con coach plus bottles of water. Pick up from the hotel was smooth and the team were flexible in accommodating us being dropped off at Dubai Mall. All in all, great service, wonderful tour and well worth the money.Written September 10, 2024

I explored the bustling supermarket, indulging in a variety of local delicacies. The highlight was a serene boat ride, offering picturesque views of the cityscape. The entire experience was a blend of cultural immersion and relaxation, making it a memorable day. Thank you 🙏🏾Written September 4, 2024

- suemO2092CO0 contributionsAn amazing private tour of Dubai city.This was an excellent tour for us as we only had limited time in Dubai to see the sights. With this tour we were able to choose what we wanted to see as well as being guided on recommendations provided by the guide. Our guide was Nimish. He was extremely knowledgeable about Dubai and he was very conscious of our needs. We spent a very pleasant 5 hours with Nimish and his driver taking in the sights of this amazing city. I would highly recommend this tour and Nimesh to anyone who is looking to learning more about Dubai in a short time.Written August 28, 2024

- B973VXharrys0 contributionsSkip the lineWas simply a skip the line which was nice but there was 0 narrative or information re the building provided. The skip the line was the best partWritten August 21, 2024
- StorkRN10 contributionsGreat tour! The 148th floor lounge and skipping the line was worth the upgrade!Upgrading to the 148th floor was so worth it! When you check in, you’re taken to a private VIP lounge for snacks and juice or coffee while you wait for your time. We got to skip the huge line and be taken up to the 148th floor lounge where you get to take as much time as you want to check out the views and then you can sit in the lounge and be treated to unlimited snacks, water, juice, any coffee drink you want! The lattes/cappuccinos had the Burj Khalifa design on top! After your done on the 148th floor, you descend (no lines) to the 124th and 125th floor. It’s super crowded there w no seating, so the higher lounge was worth it! You can explore those two floors before getting in the separate VIP line to get the elevator back down. There was still a line to get down, but nothing like the normal line! I went at peak time, sunset, so it was fairly crowded, but not so much so on the 148th floor! Worth the upgrade!Written August 21, 2024
- Harjeet-Aujla0 contributionsBurj khalifaWe booked to visit the sky 148 floor plus 124 and 125. First time going went up to the desk to get our voucher changed for tickets as we booked via a third party. Approached the desk to ask if we could pay for a further upgrade to the lounge. The gentleman didn’t speak to me printed my ticket and pointed me away. Rude to say the least. However our tour guide was great and when we got to the 148th floor the staff was amazing.. We had a lovely time up there. VIP tickets definitely helped as I don’t like to queue.Written August 19, 2024

- nataliia_stupynets0 contributionsTotally worth the priceTotally worth the price. I had some doubts about the experience at the beginning, but once you see the queues, all doubts vanish😂 The lounge was not crowded, the waiters ware always there to get you seated somewhere nice, to fetch some drinks for you and even to take the pictures of you :) The only mistake we did was going down to 125th, don't do that, you won't miss anything but will spend quite some time in queues trying to get to the ground floor.Written August 12, 2024

The desert setting is stunning, torchlit dining after dark - vegetarians willingly and abundantly catered for, followed by stargazing led by the accomplished Astro-science communicator and Astrophotographer Prabhu and his knowledgeable team. And that’s just the evening activities. Woken for sunrise, you’re transported to the stunning peak to watch sun rise over the expansive Mleiha valley. Unlimited beauty in every direction. A short walk in the dunes lead by Prabhu to Fossil Rock to see the spirals of seashells of times long ago when this land was part of the seabed. These were the highlights for me. The team were super friendly and knowledgeable with a safe and healthy respect of Covid precautions maintained throughout. My Mleiha visit was the highlight of my time in Dubai, highly highly recommended!

We stayed overnight with a group of 9 and had the entire camp to ourselves that night. The setting is perfect, with Fossil Rock and the mountains all around. Dinner was tasty and plentiful and our guide Shihab was very helpful. The kids enjoyed the astronomy show but didn’t see the archery we had read about. Bathrooms are spotless. Tents and sleeping bags were comfortable, we had brought our own pillows. We didn’t sleep too well because the wind was ferocious but he said that is uncommon. It was a bonus that we had our car parked right there for extra storage. Overall A+ experience.
