Evening Desert Safari (Dune Dinner)
This off-road arabian adventure takes you from the bustle of Dubai city to the desert of golden sand dunes. You will travel to the desert from your pick-up point in a luxury 4WD (Toyota Land Cruiser) and reach there in around 45 minutes. Next, the Arabian roller coaster ride known as dune bashing (desert driving) will begin, where you will shriek and laugh with excitement as the car goes up and down the dunes.

As the sun descends into the horizon, we stop to allow you to take sunset photographs, while standing on top of the fading desert dunes. We now head to the campsite where a convoy of camels awaits your arrival for short camel rides. After returning, you can purchase some souvenirs before relaxing on a majlis (low cushions) in traditional Bedouin tents. Enjoy an Arabian BBQ (barbeque/barbecue) buffet dinner and dessert beside a blazing bonfire with traditional cups of coffee and dates, underneath the pitch-black night sky. You can also get more dressed for the occasion by dressing in traditional Bedouin male or female garments, and also have Henna (temporary tatoo) decorate your hands, legs and feet and smoke flavored sheesha (hubbly-bubbly/water pipe). Before we head back to Dubai, we will be entertained by the dancing of a belly dancer to traditional Arabic music, and you are welcome to join along.

The Dubai safari tour, also known as a half day desert safari, normally lasts for 5 to 6 hours and begins in the afternoon from between 3:30pm and 4:30pm and ends around 10:00pm. The safari costs Dhs. 220 (US$ 60) for adults and Dhs. 150 (US$ 41) for children between 3 and 10.

For VIPs, honeymooners, or lovers who wish to have the entire car at their disposal throughout the Evening Desert Safari, this can be arranged for a fee of Dhs. 1,000 (US$ 274), with a maximum of 4 individuals per car.

Sand Boarding / Sand Skiing

Overnight Desert Safari

In the morning, we have breakfast at the camp before heading back to Dubai city at around 9am.
