Tips for a Better Visit
Choose mid-range. Choose at least the mid-range package if food matters: one guest found its generous buffet worth the price difference.
Bring a mask. For quad biking and dune activities, bring a face or neck mask to make the sandy conditions easier.
Ask about dizziness. If anyone in your group is prone to motion sickness, ask about warnings or precautions before dune bashing.
Expect vendors. Allow for persistent sales pitches at the buggy and technical stops, including souvenirs, photos and refreshments.
Consider private. Ask about a private tour if you prefer more control over the pace; one guest specifically valued that arrangement.

The Bottom Line
VIP Dubai Tours is a Trade Centre tour agency built around Dubai desert safaris. A typical outing can take you from hotel pickup to quad biking, dune bashing and a desert photo stop, then on to a camp for camel riding, dinner and live shows. That makes it useful for visitors who want several classic desert activities in one booking rather than arranging them separately.
The driving is a strong point in the reviews. Guests describe professional, careful desert driving, clean or new vehicles, and an experience that felt safe even with young children. Guides are also praised for explaining the landscape, taking photos and videos, checking in during the trip and adapting to requests.
Families and first-time desert visitors appear well catered for, although dune bashing can cause dizziness, so it is worth asking about precautions beforehand. Package choice matters. One guest found the mid-range buffet generous and well arranged, while the basic buffet was smaller and began only after the show.
Camp bathrooms were reported to be poorly maintained. Stops at the buggy area and tyre-pressure check can also bring persistent vendor pitches. If you want a quieter, more flexible day, ask about a private tour; for value, the mid-range option seems the safer food choice.
