Thrilling desert roller-coaster drive through the tall golden sand dunes! Highly recommended for anyone seeking the ultimate desert experience. Red Sea Tourism has a wonderful team of professionals. I would highly recommend the Dune buggy adventure trail.

Very nice setting in between sand dunes. Food is ok, and the show is entertaining and includes belly dancing and fire show. There is also traditional henna and a small traditional shop. I visited as part of desert safari which is highly recommended - the safari is the highlight of the visit.

Boring. Not worth the price. The camel ride was a 2 mins ride. The show... not great, no wow factor, very average. The program itself was boring. Almost everything costs. The ATV is 500 dirham for 20mins for 4 person. If u want solo its like 200dirham. Kids have also 15mins for 190dirham. The pictures costs 150dirham for a copy of cd. Shisha cost 50dirham if u want it delivered to your table. They also have a sand boarding which is for free but no adrenaline rush. The food....hmmmm not delicious. The food...hmmm...not delicious, just ok.

Were take here as part of a trip - desert safari and Arabian show with dinner. The show was the boring tourist dancing until the fire spinning guy turned up. It was one of the best acts I have seen whilst on a Tourist visit. The food was plentiful, hot and mediocre. There are other activities to do from here like quad biking, sand dune surfing, camel riding, smoke a Shisha and more.

Wife and I are Canadian. Flew in for a wedding. This was day 2 of or journey into the desert. Wow. Best time of my life. Camel rides. Sand dunes in vehicles. Supper and stage show. So much to take in for the day. Well worth it.

We stayed overnight at the Bassata village to experience the true flavour of traditional Arabic lifestyle. It took us just over an hour from Dubai to drive to our destination. The approach road to the Bassata Village takes you through very interesting twists and turns, wadis, sand-draped rural tarmac roads and a mesh of off-road tracks before you finally reach the ‘back of beyond’ where this idyllic nature retreat is located.Tranquility and a sense of glorious isolation are the feelings you find yourself immersed in as soon as you enter the Bassata Village complex. The sense of space, both physical and mental, is what drives people to travel to such far-out places in search of solitude and silence.The evening entertainment bonanza starts just after sunset and goes on for over an hour. A well laid out buffet is served as you enjoy the performances on stage while munching on the delicious barbecue buffet dinner on offer. Adding to the atmosphere of the night was the talented belly dancer who was dancing to the upbeat rhythms of Arabic music. As I sat there on an oversized pillow, puffing on my apple-flavoured shisha and watching the seductive moves of the belly dancer, I couldn’t help feeling like Lawrence of Arabia!After an eventful evening of riding a dune buggy through the desert, watching a series of enthralling performances and enjoying a three-course dinner, it was finally time to retire for the night in our respective tents. However, there was one more surprise on the menu before we could hit the sack. A big campfire awaited us just outside our sleeping tents. We sat around the bonfire on comfortable pillows and enjoyed the sound of crackling wood in the fire in front of us and the star-studded desert sky above us. A few camels watched us in intrigue from a safe distance as we gave them company till late in the night. Before falling asleep though, I took time off to gaze up at the star-filled sky above and enjoyed my time under the open night sky.The next morning we woke up to the sound of chirping birds that had gathered on the nearby ghaf trees to sing their morning songs. As we were lazily basking in the morning sun, I spotted a pair of blue-wingedbirds chasing each other in the blue skies above – and reminded myself of the importance of enjoying the small pleasures of life.After a fulfilling breakfast, we checked out early to explore the nearby areas on our drive back and take in the sights and sounds of the all-encompassing desert around us.All in all, we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Bassata Village and would surely come back to escape the hustle-and-bustle of the city life and rejuvenate and recharge.The entire property has a very minimalist and simple design. Bedouin style majlis tents line the central courtyard around which you can spot a number of Arabic Ghaf trees (Prosopis Cineraria) that make this place a natural oasis in the middle of the desert. We were welcomed by a cacophony of birds chirping in the trees as we walked the carpeted walkways towards the main entertainment and dining area which is located in the middle of the campsite.Special mention here must be made about the courteous and friendly staff of Bassata Village. The ever-helpful and knowledgable staff – including members from the senior management – is there to welcome you upon arrival and to wave you goodbye when you’re ready to leave. A butler is appointed for each tent to ensure that your holiday exceeds your expectations, from delivering water to your tent to bringing drinks and snacks as you sit around your campfire.

I have visited almost all the desert safaris in the UAE but this one is by far the best. Best in terms of beautiful location and exclusive performances/dances/shows. I recommend you stay there overnight, you will love the experience. But still I will give it 4 out of 5 stars because the food is not very good.

Nice place, came to ride a jeep. The program includes camel riding, tea, coffee with dates, all-inclusive drinks. Also, after a trip in jeeps you will have dinner and a spectacular performance is the Dervish dance, belly dance, fire show. We liked everything, for me this oasis with its entertainment program is very good. I advise you to visit his mood will be good. By the way, the photo seems expensive to me, if I understood the photographer correctly it will cost 100 AED; it seems to me that it is a little expensive, if the price of the photo was 50 AED it still did not go.

Review №93

There is nothing in common with the Bedouin culture. Desert - well, there would stay for the night, when all fell down. This is for those who feel nature. Camp is just an amusement market under the taste of a mass tourist (as they understand it). Coffee - slop. Food - Buffet three-star hotel. The show is a parody of the stereotypes of Europeans about everything eastern. It makes sense only for the sake of pokatushek on Kruzak, quadric and buggy, and, as said above - the dunes.

An interesting place, on January 9, 2020 the village has 5 cats. White, with sandy spots, the most affectionate, I advise you to put the rest of the kebab in it.The food is good, the shows are interesting. They offer a ride on a quad bike or buggy (150 and 350 dirhams in 20 minutes).

Final stop at desert safari. Here was a nice and quiet conclusion to a desert safari. Food and everything around was awesome. The little show in the evening was also very nice.

A great climate is an oasis in the middle of the desert, the last point of safari jeeps. During the dinner, traditional dance shows, something for women and something for men.

They took a tour. I really liked it. We rode on camels, then on the sand and in the evening there was dinner and a show. We were satisfied. Will definitely come again.
