The experience
Head into Dubai’s red dunes for a 4×4 desert safari, sandboarding and a short camel ride, with optional dune buggy driving and BBQ dinner.
Leave the skyline behind and join the driver for the dune section before getting out onto the sand. Choose a four-hour outing for the outdoor activities or a seven-hour evening with a camp meal and the scheduled cultural shows. The buggy options add a 30-minute session, separate from time in the safari vehicle.
Tell us who wants to drive and who will ride as a passenger. Buggy seating, driver eligibility and sharing must be agreed for your party; dinner and shows belong only to the evening packages. Pickup coverage and driving intensity are confirmed before departure.
