Our driver Mohammed picked us up at our hotel and with 4 other people who were part of our tour we drove to the desert. All of the people on our tour were great and we had a great time with them. Our driver was a bit crazy but lots of fun so with music blaring we hit the highway... More

We were a group of 5 project team members. The unfortunate part was that the car broke down and we had a mini safari. By the time the radiator was fixed it was almost sunset and we were driven down to the desert camp. The food was ok ok. And the camp was fair. Did I enjoy the safari? Well... More

We booked the overnight desert safari with Lama after trying to contact several operators from Hong Kong with little response. The tour promised dune bashing, a dinner show with belly and traditional dancing and a trip to Wadi Khamis near Hatta the following morning. We paid extra to have a car to ourselves and would highly recommend this tour to... More

Lets just say i never got around to buying it as they presented a very unprofessional and unreliable attitude. The rates at the dhow were quoted as 150 per person, when i called their office to make reservation they quoted 180dhs, when... More

Great setting, Dhow appeared authentic and sailed smoothly, food very poor, crowded and consequently uncomfortable. Do not believe the brochure picture's they do not match what you get.

Our hotel booked us on a day trip to Abu Dhabi using Lama. We were told that we would see the sights. We ended up seeing more malls and craft emporiums than sights. At the sights we did stop at -- Sheikh Zayed Mosque and Ferrari World (If you consider that a sight) -- we were only given 30 minutes... More

I travelled to Dubai in December end with my wife and some relatives. Suffice to say, in all my international travels, this trip would most definitely rank the last in terms of satisfaction mainly on account of repeated blunders made during local excursions by 'Lama Desert Tours & Cruises L.L.C.' in Dubai. It all started with the first excursion of... More
