Excellent overnight stay in the desert. The highlights were the safari in an open 1950s Land Rover, sunrise with a cup of coffee on a sand dune and seeing falcons hunt. Loved the camp which was charming and great breakfast

Overnight Desert Safari by Platinum Heritage is the most amazing experience that you can possibly find in your life time. The whole journey is perfect for everyone no matter where you come from. They just arrange everything for you. First hotel pick-up was punctual, and our guide Fahad really took care of all of us. He gave us introduction and recommend and was willing to answer all the questions. We saw Arabian oryx and gazelle in nature reserve by Vintage Land Rovers. It feels so good that all the wild animals are well protected by four countries. Also we have falcon show together with amazing sunset. Everyone is so friendly and helpful. The services is 100% next level. After arriving at the camp, the party was just getting started. It was worth coming just for the dinner lol. I can't give away too much, so I'm looking forward to you exploring it for yourselves! We are very grateful to our tour guide Fahad who genuinely looks out for every tourist. He made this journey more incredible. Also his colleague Ravi is talented too, helping us with creative pictures. We are looking forward to seeing you again soon, next time we will try other heroes adventure.

This tour was recommended to us by our resort Atlantis, The Palm and for good reason! We will truly never forget this experience. The desert tour was absolutely beautiful and we were lucky to have an AMAZING guide with us, Nizar!!!! Nizar picked us up from our resort and toured us around the lands giving us amazing information and making sure we stopped for photos/to take the experience in. We opted to do the platinum package with an overnight stay followed by a sunrise hot air balloon ride. We cannot recommend this company enough. Everything was beautiful, safe, the food was amazing and the staff are highly skilled. If you are coming to Dubai, book this tour and ask for Nizar you will be so happy with the experience!!! Thank you again!

It’s such a great experience. Runel is so nice and introduced us a lot of interesting facts about the desert. It’s way more comfortable than what I thought. You can even take a warm shower. Will definitely come back again but next time with someone else and try the balloon.
