Surprise Tourism Avis 

I’ve worked with Surprise Tourism for several group trips. Most recently, they coordinated our 6-day trip to Iceland. Not only did they include all the top attractions and activities included, but also local hidden gems. They ensured we were assigned the most professional, knowledgeable and experienced tour guide and driver. We were extremely pleased. Most importantly, we felt safe in their hands and trusted everything they suggested/altered, given the volatile weather.

We had a wonderful half-day Dubai city tour with our guide, Saad Aka Sam. He is very knowledgeable, helpful, and genuinely nice. He explained everything clearly and made the tour both enjoyable and informative. We truly appreciated his professionalism and warm attitude. Highly recommended!

Our tour guide Saad is extremely knowledgeable regarding the country, culture, and history. He was patient and always made sure we were given the best price when purchasing anything. He was also the best photographer a girl could ever ask for 😀

Saad was our tour guide and he was excellent! He went above and beyond in his service for us! His knowledge about the history of Dubai was impeccable!I learned so much and I look forward to coming back to learn more!

We made the Abu Dhabi tour with Sam and it was incredible!! He is very knowledgeable and explain everything. We were very happy with the tour! Thank you. 100% recommended

Even though we only spent one day together, it was immediately clear what an exceptional tour guide he is. Ahmed Alfafifi is incredibly kind, extremely knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to accommodate our needs. His attention to detail made the experience truly memorable. I couldn’t have asked for a better guide and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for an outstanding tour experience.

Sam (Saad) made our entire trip — and I’m certain I can speak for all of us when I say that this experience wouldn’t have been the same without him.

Sam didn’t just guide us through Dubai — he elevated the entire experience. From the very beginning, his care, professionalism, and passion were clear, and it stayed consistent throughout.

What stood out most was how he anticipated our needs before we even asked. Everything was organized in a way that allowed us to experience as much as possible in the most efficient and enjoyable way — without ever feeling rushed or overwhelmed. Sam’s knowledge is impressive, but what makes him truly exceptional is his heart. You can feel how deeply he cares about the people he works with, about safety, and about creating meaningful experiences.

He kept us safe and comfortable the entire time, shared insider tips only a true local would know, and brought so much joy through humor and personality. After travelling the world, I can confidently say that his level of expertise and customer care stands out. He made a lasting impression on all of us.

I’m grateful he’s partnered with Viago, because the standard he sets is exceptional and deserves recognition.
Thank you, Sam — we are deeply grateful for you.
And I’m genuinely looking forward to continuing this conversation and working with you again — whether it’s Dubai, Egypt, or beyond.

Surprise Tourism was the best choice we could have chosen hands down. We were well taken care of they were always on time and did a phenomenal job of showing us the city and what Dubai had to offer. Sam our tour guide was excellent

The experience was absolutely wonderful. Sam was an amazing tour guide—knowledgeable, patient, smart, and incredibly resourceful. My experience exceeded every expectation. I would highly recommend this tour and Sam to anyone looking for an unforgettable experience.

11/2-11/7, 2025: I've had a pleasure of working with Mr. Saad or known as Sam and the driver Mr. Atta for driving us to these beautiful places. My mom and I had him as our tour guide in Abu Dhabi, city tour in DXB and Souqs around Dubai area. He is very accommodating, prompt in time, and willing to take pictures and take us to the places that weren't even in the itenerary. He went above and beyond to give us the beauty of the city of Dubai. He was also great that he takes time to make us a Tiktok video compilation of all the pictures and places that we went to. He also knows some perfect photo spots to capture photos and help us bargain to the souqs. Highly recommend this guy to everybody who is planning to visit Dubai. The whole Surprise Tourism LLC literally surprised us with a very welcoming tour and experience in Dubai. I will be back again for sure!
Sincerely yours,
Cynthia & Arian Carlos

My trip to Dubai was planned in less than 3 months and the team was very accommodating. They worked with me to suit my budget and planned an exciting trip that me and my family can't stop speaking about. From the airport pick up, to all the activities and drop off, they were on point and on time. Our Tour Guide Sam was phenomenal, he is not just very knowledgeable, but kind and friendly. What I enjoyed the most was the fact that he shared his personal experiences with us and that assisted us in better understanding the Dubai culture . Hats off Sam. Keep up the wonderful job you're doing.

Dubai and Abu Dhabi

Airport transfers were on time and the excursions were amazing.

We had the Dubai City tour with Hussein that included a visit to Al Bastakiya area and Gold and Spices Souk. He was very knowledgeable and did an excellent tour.

We experienced the stunning views during our Marina Dhow Cruise and the thrill of the Desert Safari. The Safari included buffet, tea/coffee/soda, short camel ride, belly dancer, fire shows and more... It was absolutely amazing!

Our only concern was about communication with the pick up as Dubai has a lot of traffic and pick up was delayed a few times. The issue was later better assisted.

We really had a wonderful time!
Thank you so much!

A 5-Star Dubai Experience — Beyond Our Expectations!

From the moment we landed in Dubai, Surprise Tourism delivered excellence! Every detail of our summer tour was handled with care—from airport transfers to luxury hotel check-ins and all the amazing excursions in between.

The itinerary was perfectly curated. We soaked in the stunning views during our Marina Yacht Dinner, experienced the thrill of the Desert Safari, and marveled at the Burj Khalifa during golden hour. The private guided tours added a personal touch, and our group especially appreciated how smooth and professional everything felt—no stress, just joy!

What really set Surprise Tourism apart was the warmth of the team. Our tour coordinator was knowledgeable, attentive, and genuinely passionate about giving us the best experience possible. Communication was top-notch throughout the entire trip.

This was more than just a vacation—it was a memory-making journey that left us inspired and refreshed. I highly recommend Surprise Tourism to anyone looking to experience the real magic of Dubai in a seamless, elevated way.

We’ll definitely be booking with them again. Thank you for helping us create unforgettable memories!

Sam went way above anything I've ever seen from a tour guide. Very knowledgeable about the cites cultures, laws, history and various languages. Also our personal barter master.
Keep the vibe going Sam.

We recently visited Dubai and had the pleasure of having Saad (aka Sam) as our guide. He was amazing, very knowledgeable, friendly, and went above and beyond to make sure we had a wonderful experience.

Saad gave us great advice and recommendations on where to shop at the Dubai Gold and Spice Souks, and he made sure we were properly dressed for our visit to the Sheikh Zayed Mosque. His attention to detail and care made our trip both smooth and memorable.

We did the Classic Dubai City Tour, which included a drive through the beautiful residential areas of Jumeirah, a stop at the Jumeirah Mosque, a visit to the Al Bastakiya area, and an Abra ride across Dubai Creek to explore the Gold and Spice Souks. We also visited Abu Dhabi Corniche, Marina Mall, Heritage Village, and ended our day at the stunning Louvre Abu Dhabi.

Throughout the tour, Saad shared insights about local culture and customs and happily answered all our questions. His passion for his work and for Dubai really made this tour special.

I highly recommend Saad to anyone visiting Dubai. He made our trip truly unforgettable!
