Overview

This Dubai desert safari is centered on driving through the Arabian Desert’s red dunes in a 4x4 Toyota Land Cruiser. The tour begins with a hotel pickup anywhere in Dubai or Sharjah. After the pickup, the vehicle heads to the Lahbab Desert for about two hours of desert activities. The main feature is 45 minutes of dune bashing, where the professional driver climbs and descends the sand dunes. There is also time for sunset photography and a camel ride across the desert sand. Optional activities such as quad biking and buggy driving are available but are not included. Following the desert adventure, the group arrives at a desert camp near Al Awir. Here guests can sit down to a buffet or barbecue dinner served in Bedouin-style tents. The meal includes Arabic salads like tabbouleh and fattoush, dips such as hummus and baba ghanoush, grilled meats including chicken, lamb, and beef, vegetarian options, traditional Emirati dishes depending on the tour, freshly baked Arabic bread, rice and couscous, sauces, and desserts like baklava or Arabic sweets. Beverages include soft drinks as well as Arabic coffee and tea. While dining, guests watch live entertainment featuring a tanoura dance, belly dancing, and a fire show. This part of the tour lasts about an hour and a half. After dinner and entertainment, the group returns to Dubai in an air-conditioned vehicle with hotel drop-off included. The return trip takes about an hour, with optional photo stops if requested. Bottled water is provided throughout the tour. The total duration of the safari is about seven hours.
