Overview

This six-hour evening desert safari in Dubai uses a modern 4WD vehicle with hotel pickup and drop-off included. The tour begins with dune bashing across the red sand dunes of the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, driven by professional guides. After the dune drive, the group pauses to watch the sunset from a high dune, where soft drinks are served. The safari continues to a Bedouin-style camp where guests receive Arabic coffee and traditional dates. Activities at the camp include a camel ride and sandboarding on the dunes. Guests can also have henna hand painting. As night falls, a three-course BBQ dinner featuring grilled dishes is served under the stars. The evening entertainment features a Tanoura dancer, a belly dancer (except during Ramadan when belly dancing is replaced by Tanoura dance), and a fire dancing show. After the program, guests return to their hotels by 4WD vehicle.
