Me and my newly engaged girlfriend enjoyed this trip very much!! It started off a bit slow, and had a messy moment during the pick-up, but once it started, it had everything - with the only disappointment that we were picked up as the last couple of three, and those we were forced to sit in the very back of the car/truck. I can for sure let everyone know that it is a different feeling sitting in the far back compared to the other seats, but we weren't able to decide upon that so I guess that was just some bad luck for us. Anyway, nice ambience during the night, nice tours in the desert, and the food was also great. They also managed to wrap together all that they promised. We would very much recommend this trip to anyone that travels to Dubai. It is magical and totally worth the money!
