Dubai is one of the most prosperous and modern cities in the world. The city is bordered by the capital of UAE ‘Abu Dhabi’ in the south, the cultural capital ‘Sharjah’ in the northeast, and the Sultanate of Oman in the southeast. Situated within the Arabian Desert, the city has a unique topography and people from all around the world come to experience both natural and man-made wonders. There is more to Dubai than all these magnificent man-made wonders and there is nothing that characterizes Dubai as much as the huge and extensive deserts. The Landscape of Dubai mostly formed of Sandy deserts and gravel filled deserts. Desert Safari in the clean sandy desert is an adventurous experience, enjoyed by all age groups. The golden high dunes, the flora and fauna of the deserts, the camels, Bedouin Desert Camps, Entertainment shows, and Local cuisine there is so much experience in Dubai’s desert. The Evening Desert Safari should be on your must-do list when you in Dubai.

          An amazing time that you all must experience!
          Our Tour Guide was Saad, who was so knowledge, kind, funny, friendly and an all around joy! We had a large group and he was so accommodating. I highly recommend using the company, but especially, Saad for your Dubai trip, you won’t be disappointed!

          The Best Experience Ever!
          Our group trip to Dubai was amazing and it was even better because of the pre planned excursions provided by Surprise Tourism! Saad “Sam”was a great tour guide. We booked city tours, shopping, and Abi Dhabi. He was very thorough with his description of the customs and courtesies of the UAE! He was courteous and very professional. He answered all of our questions with certainty! We were very impressed with him! If you get an opportunity to visit the UAE and need a tour company book with Surprise and ask for Sam!

          Great tour!
          Surprise Tourism organized very well our tour to Al Ain, which is part of Abu Dhabi Emirate. We could visit three of the UNESCO monuments: Al Jahili Fort and the Qasr Al Muwaiji and Al Ain Oasis, where we had a nice relaxing time. We went on top of Jabel Hafeez for a great panoramic view. It was a great experience which gave us the best picture of the history of the place and also of the royal family.

          A company that cares for your safety
          Surprise Tourism was a very serious company which organized all the tour for us, not only the transfers from the Dubai Airport to the Hotel and from the Hotel to the Abu Dhabi Airport. The driver, Mr. Mohamed Irfan was very punctual, a skillful driver and took care of our safety in the crowded traffic of Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Many thanks for your care!

          Abu Dhabi City Tour
          My husband and I recently traveled to the United Arab Emirates with friends. One excursion on our trip was the Abu Dhabi City Tour. We had stops at the Sheik Zayeed Grand Mosque and the Louvre Abu Dhabi. Our guide, Ahmed, was knowledgeable and very informative regarding the history and stories about the construction and reasons these buildings were erected. Upon arrival at the hotel in Abu Dhabi, Ahmed ensured we were checked in prior to his departure back to Dubai. Ahmed was easy to talk with and he answered all our questions! Thank you Ahmed!

          Surprise Tourism company is a great source to explore Emirates!
          We had a tour in Emirates with Surprise Tourism. Our curator Mr. Muhammad organized our tour. We never met him personally, but we felt his care on every step of our trip. He made sure we were taken care of all the time. Highly recommend this company to everyone who would like to visit this wonderful country!

        I first would like to say I am greatful for the professional service we received from surprise tours. I was very pleased with all the tour guides. When I first booked with them I was very nervous of being scammed but mr Ibrahim the owner constantly stayed in contact with me and ensured my visit was one to remember. You will not be disappointed with all the personal experience you receive from this company ℹ definitely would recommend using them again.

        First, I would like to say that we actually went on many tours in Dubai I was only able to select one tour.
        Our tour guy, Sam, was PHENOMENAL! He was knowledgeable, patient, professional, fun and extremely accommodating. His attentiveness to our groups needs and desires throughout the entire vacation was impressive. His customer service is top notch and I honestly think that our trip wouldn’t have been as successful without him!! Sam the Man is THE BEST!!! Thank you Sam! Don’t forget to give me contact information for realtors in Dubai.

        To say I had an awesome time during my visit to the Desert would be an understatement. The ride in the Land Cruiser as good lively music was blasting was thrilling! I thought we were going to turn over a couple times as we were tossed around! The experience riding the Camels was heartwarming as I felt the nature of the beast. The colorful dance entertainment was great as fireworks topped off the evening. Saad (Sam) was an awesome tour guide making sure we had all we needed. I highly recommend him!

        First of all, we had the best tour guide ever, Sam! He is like a walking encyclopedia, with information about all things Dubai and worldwide - buildings, foods, historical facts, you name it!

        The sand dunes were so fun! We ordered the Polaris dune buggy ride and it was a blast! It was so much fun and memorable! I would definitely do it again! Sam met us at the hotel and ensured safe transport to and from. Once there, he took pictures and accompanied us every step of the way.

        Every excursion we booked was prompt and well organized by Sam. He's the absolute best! Anyone planning a trip to dubai, find this guy and book him! You will not be disappointed! His knowledge, professionalism, prompt timeliness, pleasant, fun personality, and vast in-depth knowings of Dubai and worldwide facts about buildings historical facts and events, demographics, foods, and just so much is superb!

        Omg! I had the most fabulous time in Dubai. We saw and experienced so many highlights and interacted with the local culture. Our tour guide, Saad (Sam) was very knowledgeable about Abu Dhabi and Dubai and curated the trip to meet our needs. If you want an unforgettable experience ask for Sam!!

        I think this was the funnest day while in Dubai. The Desert Safari with the 4 wheelers and the Sand Dunes in the SUV's were "off da chains" I still laugh when I think about it. The camel ride, tge entertainment and the food was GREAT! BTW, our tour guide Marshal, he's the best!!!! Hands down..

        From Airport pick up to drop off everything was excellent! We had an amazing time. Great customer service 👏🏽 our guide was amazing -Mr Ahmed, took really good care of us, very knowledgeable and informative and as quite patient with us. Muhammad Faizan not sure if that’s the gentleman who took us to the airport, but if not - he was also extremely helpful took us right through to the check in counter. I will definitely use and recommend this company again.

        Great experience !
        The 4x4 safari lived up to our expectations.
        However, the buggy activity chosen was somewhat disappointing because there was little freedom to realy enjoy the activity (too restrictive) and too much people on the circuit

        Dubai. For 5 days we booked tours with this company and they were brilliant. Complete professionals.. all the drivers and tour guides were brilliant and took very good care of us.
