Overview

The Dubai Evening Desert Safari with Camel Ride, Shows, and BBQ Dinner lasts about six to seven hours. The tour begins with pickup from the selected hotel or location in an air-conditioned 4WD vehicle. After approximately one hour’s drive, there is a stop at a restroom for a break while the vehicle is prepared for desert driving by adjusting tire pressure. Optional quad bike rides are available nearby but are not included in the tour price. The safari continues with 30 to 45 minutes of dune bashing across the desert dunes, followed by sandboarding. Next, the group proceeds to Al Khayma Desert Camp, where guests are welcomed with dates, sweets, and Arabic coffee. Seating is arranged in a traditional Bedouin style with cushions and carpets in an open-air Majlis setting. Visitors can take a short camel ride in a caravan, which can be repeated, and may have the opportunity to view the sunset from a nearby dune, although this is not guaranteed. At the camp, guests can smoke flavored shisha, receive henna tattoos (for women), and dress in local Arabic attire for photos. A falcon experience is included, allowing guests to hold a falcon for photographs. The entertainment program at the camp features several shows: a traditional Tanoura dance, a Ladies Khaliji dance, a falconry show, an Arabian horse show, a Bedouin camel show, and a mega fire show. An open barbecue buffet dinner is served with vegetarian and non-vegetarian options, accompanied by unlimited cold mineral water and soft drinks throughout the evening. After the camp activities and dinner, the vehicle returns guests to their original pickup location. The tour is conducted in English with a licensed driver and includes all transportation, shows, meals, and activities as listed. Participants should wear casual clothing suitable for the season and note that there are age and health restrictions for dune bashing and camel rides.
