Platinum Heritage Desert Camp

Wow, just wow. The conservation guides took care of us from start till the end. Don't let the price stop you from taking up this tour. It is one of the best decisions we have taken. The camel ride across the desert was nothing short of magical. The falconry show was informative, and when you are brought to the camp, you will be transported into another world, one of traditional arabian culture. The food served was good as well. We enjoyed it (the activities & the food). Recommended! Thank you, and well done, Platinum Heritage!

We had an incredible experience with Platinum Heritage in Dubai. Our tour guide was extremely friendly and punctual, picking us up right on time. He provided fascinating insights into Dubai and the desert, making the experience even more enriching. The vehicle was spotless and very comfortable. Everything about the evening was perfect! The weather in mid-October was pleasant, but if you’re considering staying overnight, I’d recommend going after mid-November, as the rooms only have fans, making them a bit warm. The 4-course meal was a highlight. It started with a delicious soup and fresh bread, followed by a fantastic selection of appetizers with authentic Arabic flavors. The main courses, including lamb, chicken, camel, and vegetarian options, were beautifully prepared. Although I didn’t have room for dessert, they served fresh-cut seasonal fruits and Arabic sweets. They also offered plenty of non-alcoholic drinks, and the shisha added a fun, relaxing touch to the night. Camel riding and henna painting were also a lot of fun, giving us a full taste of traditional desert experiences. The falconry demonstration was both interesting and informative. This tour is perfect for couples and families, offering a positive and welcoming atmosphere with very friendly and helpful staff. What sets it apart is its focus on authenticity—there’s no belly dancing or alcohol, so if that’s what you’re looking for, this might not be the right choice, but it’s 100% worth it for the cultural immersion. The only downside was the dance performance. Based on the videos, I had expected more, but there were only two dancers, which didn’t feel enough for an Arabic dance show. Despite that, I highly recommend the tour for its unique, enriching experience!
