This desert safari takes you into the desert outside the city for an afternoon and evening built around dune bashing, a Bedouin-style camp and a BBQ dinner, with pickup from your hotel around 3 pm and an experienced local guide leading the way.

A roundtrip hotel transfer collects you from your hotel around 3 pm, taking only your own party in the vehicle for the ride out to the desert, so it is unhurried from the start.

Dune bashing across the desert tracks

Once you reach the open desert, the 4x4 dune bash begins, an experienced driver taking the vehicle over steep rises and drops across the sand tracks. Traveling with just your own group, you can enjoy the ride at your own pace, with plenty of room to react to each climb and descent. The route also takes in sunset views over the dunes on the way to the desert camp.

Bedouin camp activities

At the camp, a henna artist applies traditional designs, and you can smoke shisha, take photos in traditional Emirati costume, and ride a camel around the camp grounds. Sandboarding and a quad bike session are available at the camp for an additional charge, if you would like to add more activity to the evening. Bedouin-style tents give you a place to relax between activities as the sun goes down.

BBQ dinner and evening shows

As evening sets in, you sit down to a BBQ dinner with a variety of vegetarian and non-vegetarian dishes, along with unlimited refreshments and soft drinks throughout. A Tanura show and belly dancing performance run around the camp during dinner, followed by a fire show that closes out the evening's entertainment.

Don’t forget to add the Morning Desert Safari Tour and Quad Biking in Dubai experience to your itinerary. You can also explore Evening Desert Safari Dubai,VIP Desert Safari, and Overnight Desert Safari Dubai for more thrills. It’s an experience you’d not want to miss in Dubai.

We did the dune bashing, camel ride, sand surfing, buggie ride and private dinner in the desert. This experience was nothing short of amazing! Our driver was excellent and the service was outstanding. The dinner in the dessert was so well done with authentic food and wine.
