We had never seen how beautiful the desert is. We also did not appreciate how much it would be to sand surf and dune bash! Riding a camel will certainly be one of the highlights of the trip. Our guide Sherif was fabulous through the whole adventure.

Aamir was an amazing guide! Very skilled driving with the dune bashing and great conversationalist. He frequently checked in with us and made sure that everyone was okay during the trip. Everyone had a great time and the activities were well worth it.
Amazing! Loved the tour guide, he made the trip!
Thahzeer was a great guide and awesome photographer. He really gave us a thrill with the sand duning. Very informative, very friendly, and above all great customer service. Book with Thahzeer for your thrilling adventure
Morning desert safari with Ocean Air was an amazing experience and one of the highlights of our trip. Our driver and guide, Shine Davis, was excellent — very friendly, professional, and made us feel safe and comfortable the whole time. The desert drive was exciting but felt completely safe, and the scenery was beautiful. The camel ride was just the right length — long enough to enjoy and make it memorable, without feeling rushed or tiring. There was also an option to ride quad bikes, which was handled safely. I especially recommend the morning safari: the temperatures are more comfortable, the desert is peaceful, and the light is perfect for photos. Overall, a beautiful and unforgettable experience. Highly recommended!
We had a great experience at the Morning safari with our driver Masal Khan...he was exceptional and made us have a great experience! ...Must visit..👍👍
Thanks so much Masal for the amazing experience we lived today. We really appreciated the trip to the desert, together with my family. Dune bashing was so funny thanks to Masal who is an experienced driver, and it was great to try sand board! Masal was a very kind and professional guide, who rendered the experience unforgettable! I highly recommend this experience if you wish to discover the Abu Dhabi desert!
