It was an amazing experience with our great driver Abbas. We enjoyed the desert in the morning time for us alone for a squat trip in the dunes and a nice sandboard surfing. We leaned a lot about the desert and people living there, with the explanations of the guide. We will come back soon.

We booked the trip via Viator and were very happy with the organization. The host/driver/guide Javed was excellent and the picnic just delicious. It's nice to see UAE from a little bit different side - the landscape is spectacular.

It wasn't terrible and it certainly wasnt great. We were picked up at our hotel about twenty minutes late in a Gray Lines minibus. Driver only; guide service was provided by headphones and a canned narrative often a bit out of sync from where we were at the time. Although it was booked as an English tour, we were the only people on the bus who spoke English. The other languages were handled as was English by the multilingual headphones. The driver spoke a very fractured English which was hard to understand and none of the other languages so I frequently had to translate the driver's comment as to where he would meet us and how long we could spend at a given site. The tour itself was comprehensive and covered a reasonable amount of sites with adequate time per site. Lunch was not included and not even water, which was a first for any tour I had been on. However the driver did stop at a supermarket in the morning so people could buy water or soft drinks. I noted that we frequently parked a substantial distance from sites involving long walks while other tour busses seemed to be able to park much closer. The extreme example came when we went to ascend the tallest skyscraper in the world Burj Khalifa. I noted that other tour guides either accompanied their groups to the top or at least arranged to meet them at the base of the elevators after the ascent. Not this group. The driver raced with other members of the group way ahead of us leaving my wife, who uses a cane and myself way behind, concerned we would lose sight of him as he navigated through a complicated and crowded Dubai Mall to reach the elevators to the top. We finally caught up, the driver gave us the tickets and we rode to the top on our own. However he said he would meet us back at the tour van, about 2 km away back thru the geographically complicated largest mall in the world. We asked security guards to direct us back to the right parking lot. The guards all expressed amazement that the guide had not stayed to escort us back as apparently everyone else did. With considerable difficulty we made it back to the van exactly at the appointed time only to find it locked and no driver in sight. Twenty minutes later he showed up with no apology anf the tour continued. At the end of the day, though we were only a few minutes from our hotel, he refused to drop us off there and said we needed to get a taxi to go back to the hotel. Indeed he stated he was being tracked by the tour company on GPS and would be penalized if he returned us to where we started. Otherwise he would take us back to the Dubai Mall, a half hour's drive away. You can probably do better than this tour to see Dubai.

Usman was my tour guide and he was very knowledgeable about the city of Ras Al Khaimah. He was energetic and made the city tour more fun. I did not feel rushed at all and the tour lasted between 4-5 hours. I’d highly recommend booking a city tour through Safarak. Ask for Usman as your tour guide.

Booked tour via Travelux, good communication and itinerary possible as requested. However, tour guide seems to be hired form somewhere else and was not really interested. We visited places as requested but the guide was clearly not aware of what was agreed. We paid for the golden coffee at the Emirates Palace hotel, but didn't get that. At Qasr Al Watan the guide didn't come with us because he had to pay for ticket. Same for Etihad Towers, had to pay for tickets ourselves and guide came later to the observation deck. As it was National Day there was an air show, he could have planned that in. Furthermore little to no explanation or guiding. Guide was constanlty offering other tours in which we were not interested, but he kept on asking. Last, but certainly not least, on the way back the guide was tired and we were scared during the drive back to Dubai, totally not acceptable! We paid USD 580, which is very expensive. This is ofcourse is no problem, but we also paid a lot extra. Because of this and the dangerous driving I can only come to an low average rating.

My tour (with guide Shakeeb) was absolutely fantastic! We hit all of the must-see stops and sights, plus some bonus surprises along the way. It was the perfect choice for a first day overview of Dubai’s gems. I’ve found that the city is best done by road and with someone who can fill you in on the little fascinating details. Shakeeb was full of fun facts and the extra touches he added made the tour feel tailored to me and my interests. I left knowing a lot more about Dubai, it’s customs, architecture and its beautiful people. The best part was getting a list of sights and neighborhoods I want to double-back and explore even further. A great way to fill out the rest of my stay. If you have a choice, I highly recommend this tour group!
