Quality

★★★★★

Me and my friend booked 2 trips from Rayna and i can recommend both of them. Abu Dhabí day trip and Overnight desert safari. Rayna is the cheapest agency but the quality is just perfect. Abu Dhabí: We were picked up in the hotel and went by minivan to Abu Dhabí. We have stopped in few spots and saw almost all in just 8 hours.Ferrari world, Emirates palace, Royal palace, Downtown. The best part is the amazing mosque.And very funny guide. "and dear all of you " :)....

Amazing Service

★★★★★

I landed in Dubai without a grand plan of what to do, except that I wanted to do the desert safari with overnight stay. As I stayed in Courtyard Marriott Hotel the hotel's staff pointed me to the Rayna Tour representative, Nimit Joshi. His customer service was second to none! Not only did he organise my overnight stay safari, which was really fantastic- an absolute must to do! The sand dune bashing must be experienced! The driver was really good and professional. I was the only tourist who decided to stay overnight,....

Highly recommend

★★★★★

Booked most of my tours from Rayna. The desert safari was very good. Our driver was a pro – Sajid. It is advisable to go for the evening one. This will include dinner, soft drinks, belly dancing and some fire shows. You can also opt to stay overnight there. The program starts with a hotel pick up and then to the safari, a photo stop in the desert and then the evening shows. This ends with the car dropping you back to the hotel...
