Description

If there's one unmissable activity in Dubai, it's the Desert Safari, so if you want to make the most of your holiday, be sure to reserve a night for this activity.

Activity Details

Having picked you up at your hotel at the time you booked, we'll hit the road toward the desert near Dubai in 4x4 all-terrain vehicles.

Once there, after adjusting the pressure on the 4x4 tires, our drivers will show you the mastery of their vehicles in these difficult, red-duned conditions, and over 30 minutes will take you on an adrenaline-fuelled dune-bashing ride. And you'll have the opportunity to surf the dunes of the Dubai desert on a sandboard.

Before heading to the camp, we'll make a stop to see the sunset: a magical experience when the color of the sand changes and the dunes begin to cast long shadows.

Once in the camp, you'll be able to ride a camel, try shisha, wear traditional outfits, get a small henna tattoo, and sample traditional Arab coffee - all included!

Dinner will be a barbecue under the stars, featuring a variety of meats, appetizers, salads, and traditional regional desserts. To top off the evening, you’ll enjoy a series of performances, including a traditional dance, an Arabian horse show, camels, archery, and an exciting fire show.

Having eaten and enjoyed the show we'll hit the road back to Dubai, finishing the tour back at your hotel.

Hotel Pickup

This activity includes pickup from all accommodations in Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, and cruise terminals, except Jabel Ali hotels and those located in Dubai Sports City, Dubai Investment Park, Al Maktoum, and Expo areas.

La excursión es muy completa, la comida muy sabrosa y abundante, bebidas libres. Saber que el trayecto es largo de ida, pero la vuelta es muy simple. Bien organizado. El show muy ameno. Hay Henna, camellos, puesta de sol (junio), shisha, café, té, dulces, caballos, halcones, etc. Mención aparte para JoJo un conductor excelente, por autopista y más aún por las dunas. Un 100 para la conducción de JoJo (además buena música en su auto). Recomendable Translate this opinion into English.

The tour was very complete, the food was very tasty and plentiful, and there were free drinks. It's a long trip there, but the return trip is very simple. Well organized. The show was very entertaining. There was henna, camels, a sunset (June), shisha, coffee, tea, sweets, horses, falcons, etc. A special mention for JoJo, an excellent driver, both on the highway and even more so in the dunes. 100% for JoJo's driving (plus great music in his car).

Desert safari spettacolare, tutto organizzato in maniera eccelsa. L'oasi che vi ha ospitato ricrea in maniera egregia l'amosfera di un oasi di altri tempi. Cibo buonissimo, degustazioni ottime. Libertà di muoversi liberamente tra i diversi angoli della struttura. Molto particolari anche gli spettacoli organizzati. Consigliato Translate this opinion into English.

Spectacular desert safari, everything organized in an excellent way. The oasis that hosted you recreates in an excellent way the atmosphere of an oasis of other times. Very good food, excellent tastings. Freedom to move freely between the different corners of the structure. The organized shows are also very special. Recommended Opinion translated. Show original.

As atividades oferecidas durante o passeio são muito legais, o jantar estava excelente. O guia do passeio não foi muito legal, estava sempre com pressa falando as coisas de qualquer jeito (eu ja tinha pesquisado sobre o passeio, então tive que ficar perguntando se isso ou aquilo estavam inclusos no pacote), e não era solicito como os demais para ajudar o grupo, tirar foto e oferecer informações. Translate this opinion into English.

The activities offered during the tour were really cool, and dinner was excellent. The tour guide wasn't very nice, he was always in a hurry and talking about random things (I had already researched the tour, so I had to keep asking if this or that was included in the package), and he wasn't as helpful as the others in helping the group, taking photos, and offering information.
