Our Platinum Heritage Safari with Bashir was incredible! From the start, he made us feel like family — so kind, respectful, and genuinely caring. He made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying themselves throughout the day. Bashir shared fascinating stories about Emirati culture and desert life, and his passion really brought the experience to life. The vintage Land Rover ride, desert sunset, and traditional dinner were all unforgettable. Couldn’t recommend this safari — and Bashir — more highly!

Our desert safari with Platinum Heritage was absolutely exceptional from start to finish. The entire experience was seamless, authentic, and perfectly organized — a true reflection of the company’s high standards and passion for showcasing the beauty of Dubai’s desert heritage. A special thank you to Noman, our guide, who truly made the experience unforgettable. He was knowledgeable, professional, and incredibly friendly, always ensuring everyone felt comfortable and engaged. Noman shared fascinating insights about the desert, local culture, and wildlife — turning what could’ve been just a tour into a meaningful journey through the UAE’s history and traditions.

The company organized everything very efficiently. Our guide Ayaz was very friendly & informative, and we were particularly impressed that they organized a gluten-free birthday cake for our friend when we only informed them on pick-up. The food was delicious and all the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating. I would highly recommend this tour for a first trip to the desert.

Our experience was absolutely wonderful! 🌸 Our Guides Michelle and Abbas were amazing — so attentive, caring, and you can clearly see how much they love what they do. They’re both so fun and lighthearted, which made the trip incredibly enjoyable. They shared so many interesting details that made everything even more special. As Dubai was our stop by from our honeymoon, they prepared a flower surprise that was beautiful! We’re so happy we chose this tour with Heritage! We honestly couldn’t have asked for better guides — the whole experience exceeded our expectations!

Fantastic experience under Arabian skies. The whole experience is well curated and the staff is very friendly. The food is also great and gives a flavour of the Emeratis.

It was amazing!!! Beautiful scenery, great cars, a lovely camp, and incredibly delicious food. The staff were all so friendly and hospitable; they did everything with a smile. A big shoutout to our guides, Jordan and Matale/Metala (our apologies, we forgot your name), both from South Africa. You're a real asset to the company, and we couldn't have wished for better guides. Thank you for the wonderful day.

Delighted to have decided to go on this adventure. From the moment we were picked up the trip was exceptional. Driving in the desert in a vintage Land Rover, riding camels and eating authentic food, topped off with star gazing after a falcon display was such fun! Special mention to Hamish (think I’ve spelt it correctly) and especially Khairi who looked after us so well!

As a family of 4 with two young children, we were a little worried how they would manage an afternoon in the Arabian desert… What an incredible day! When we originally booked the tour, it was on the more expensive side but it really was worth the money. Our tour guide Karim made what was an incredible day, even better. He was amazing with the kids, took so many great photos and we all learned so much more about Arabian culture. Thank you Karim and thank you Platinum Heritage for such a memorable experience! 5 🌟 all the way ❤️

We had a wonderful time on the Heritage Vintage Land Rover Safari. It was by far our best experience in Dubai. An extremely well run operation with so much packed into it, from the drive through the nature reserve, to the Hawk demonstration, camel ride, dinner and stargazing. We learned a lot and had an absolute ball. Would not hesitate to recommend.
