A four-wheel-drive vehicle will pick you up from your hotel and take you to the desert, 45 minutes from Dubai, with your local guide. After arriving at the Lahbab Desert, be invited into a cooled tent with rewards and time to unwind.

You can try quad biking as an optional activity and ride over Dubai's stunning red sand dunes if you're feeling more daring.

After that, you'll drive through the desert in a four-wheel-drive vehicle for a dune bashing adventure. As you ride up and down the tall red dunes, your stomach will jump. Admire the vehicle's ability to struggle with the sand's uneven terrain and impossible steep slopes.

After doing dune bashing, you can try sandboarding or just look around at the scenery. Take plenty of pictures of the beautiful desert landscape.

The next stop is Al Khayma Camp, where you'll be greeted with dates, sweets, and traditional Arabic coffee.

After that, pay a visit to a camel farm to learn more about the significance of these animals to Bedouin culture. Before returning to your hotel in Dubai, take a brief camel ride through the open desert.

When we arrived he explain everything. Offered water and was giving clear instructions. The ride was fun. When we had to do the camel ride he was taking pictures of us and was very helpful. Sand boarding was fun and we ended in a small shop were we stop to clean up the sand I got from me falling during the sand boarding experience. Everything was great I would definitely will recommend this to all my friend if they come to Dubai. Thank you Nazid you were awesome

Everything ran very smoothly, from connecting prior pick up, to confirming 10 minutes before pick up time. Sandy was very serviceable, polite and fun. The tour is a great way to experience Dubai desert, 4 hrs is just a taste, so leverage your expectations. Only feedback is: Ask every client not to leave trash in the desert, if we bring rubbish, we should take it back.

Great desert safari trip! Our guide Rashid was really great, explained the itinerary and arrived promptly for pick up from our hotel. It was our daughter’s first time trying quad biking and Rashid explained how to use the quad bike and put the girls at ease. We also did camel riding, and sand boarding. Rashid was very helpful teaching the girls sand boarding, they loved it. The dune bashing was great! Rashid is a very experienced driver and we felt very safe. We saw the sunset which was beautiful. Definitely recommend this trip to anyone wanting to go on a desert safari!

Our guide Akbar was very friendly. He made our Dessert safari experience so good and one of the best activities we did in Dubai. I had a 7yr old and a 1yr old daughter with me and we were in safe hands. I was worried about Dune bashing with kids but he mentioned I can wait in the waiting area with the kids while my husband and siblings go ahead with it. It was a very clean and safe place with air con on and drinks , dates provided also with bathroom facility. I was worried about heat so chose the latest time which was 2.30pm and so glad I did as the heat was bearable and we got to see the sunset too with pictures taken by him that will be memorable. The pictures on our phones looked so professional! Thank you for making our trip wonderful! Syeda
