We had a great time at Dubai Miracle Garden. The floral arrangements are beautiful and very creative, especially the big displays and walkways. Everything felt organized and family-friendly, and there were plenty of places to stop for photos. Headout tickets worked perfectly and the entry process was super easy.

Buying skip-the-line tickets is very convenient, as it avoids waiting in line at the ticket office on site. The Miracle Garden is truly a magnificent garden! We loved it. It's a beautiful walk among these floral sculptures!

Our tour guide was very, very nice! I wish everyone was like that everywhere! Quad biking, sand boarding and riding a jeep in the desert was an unforgettable experience!

Unforgettable Desert Safari Experience! Our desert safari ride was absolutely amazing, and a huge credit goes to our guide kudrat made the entire experience exceptional. From the moment we started, he was professional, friendly, and extremely knowledgeable. The dune bashing was thrilling yet safe, and his driving skills were truly impressive. He explained everything clearly, made us feel comfortable, and ensured everyone was enjoying the ride. The sunset views, photo stops, and overall desert atmosphere were breathtaking. His positive attitude and attention to detail turned this safari into a once-in-a-lifetime memory. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an exciting, safe, and unforgettable desert safari. Thank you for such a fantastic experience!

Our Driver and guide Yasir was awesome. He is a guy to whom you can interact and he is very friendly. He is an amazing photographer who knows how to take family pics.Car was clean and safari was good. Only let down point was camp food and performances. May be as it was not my first time to camp and compared to previous camp experiences this one was not good at all.
