Adventure

Published on Apr, 2024

We were on a morning safari. Everything was wonderful, it was a real adventure. We saw a lot of animals and falconry. I enjoyed the breakfast, the dancing and the stories about the Bedouin culture. Special thanks to our guide Raj.

Super Safari for a first time in the Desert.

Published on Mar, 2024

The Safari was absolutely everything I had hoped for! Runel was the most amazing tour guide. I have rarely met someone that was so knowledgeable about the desert, animals, Dubai and UAE, also culturally. A very kind person as well and funny. The Safari I chose was perfect as it only lasts a few hours. You are picked up and dropped off to your hotel. The only small thing I would change is adding more food options for picky eaters, it was nice that they offered sandwich options for the children as well. Everything else was super amazing!

Outstanding hot air balloon experience thanks to tour guide Mubasher

Published on Jan, 2024

I booked the hot air balloon trip and camel ride with Platinum heritage. I had a really fantastic experience especially with the hot air balloon ride. The tour guide Mubasher was very friendly and welcoming. He was also very knowledgeable. Breakfast was delicious and staff worked hard to prepare an excellent Arabic meal with diverse food choices. Mubasher was most helpful and had excellent customer centric skills to ensure people had a really memorable time. Thanks to Mubasher, I am looking to book another adventure again and intend to bring my friends and family. Roshni
