Itinerary

  1. Your journey begins in the afternoon with a comfortable pickup from your hotel in a 4x4 vehicle, guided by a licensed desert safari expert. You’ll leave the bustle of Dubai behind as you travel roughly 50 minutes into the majestic Lahbab Desert, famous for its rich red dunes and timeless Bedouin charm.

  2. Upon arrival, enjoy a short camel ride and take memorable photos in the golden sands while your guide prepares the vehicle. Then, brace yourself for an exhilarating 45-minute dune bashing session across towering dunes, led by a trained professional. At one of the highest dune peaks, pause to capture panoramic views of the desert and try sandboarding—an easy, fun activity for all experience levels. After the adventure, you’ll be welcomed at a traditional Bedouin-style desert camp for an authentic evening of food and entertainment. Watch the sunset cast warm hues over the dunes before enjoying cultural performances such as belly dancing, Tanoura spinning, and fire shows. Choose between two distinct dining experiences: a buffet-style dinner at a shared table or a premium option with food service to your own private table, ideal for couples, families, or anyone seeking extra comfort.

About Dubai

Dubai rises from desert and Gulf shore as a city of soaring towers, vast malls and beaches, with older trading quarters strung along its creek.

The Burj Khalifa, built to be the tallest building in the world, soars above Downtown, where the Dubai Fountain dances on a lake at its feet and the Dubai Mall spreads out beside it. Along the coast, the sail-shaped Burj Al Arab, the palm-shaped island of Palm Jumeirah and the towers of Dubai Marina define a skyline raised within living memory.
