Overview

This 7-hour desert safari in Dubai begins with a hotel pickup in a 4x4 vehicle driven by a licensed guide. The drive takes about 50 minutes from the city to the Lahbab Desert, known for its red dunes. Upon arrival, guests take a short camel ride lasting about 2 to 3 minutes, which can be repeated. Next, there is a 45-minute dune bashing session led by a professional driver. After dune bashing, the group stops at one of the highest dunes for photos and sandboarding, which is suitable for all skill levels. Following these activities, visitors proceed to a Bedouin-style desert camp for the evening. Here, guests watch live cultural shows including Tanoura spinning, fire performances, and belly dancing. Dinner is served as a buffet-style premium BBQ with both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. Guests can choose to dine at a shared table or select a private table with full service. Throughout the tour, bottled water, soft drinks, Arabic coffee, dates, and snacks are provided. The safari concludes with a return trip of about 50 minutes to Dubai hotels. Pickup and drop-off are included. Alcoholic drinks, gratuities, and shisha at the table (available for an extra charge) are not included.
