PRIVATE Desert Safari Evening with VIP BBQ-dinner, Camel Ride

Dubai is a desert. Probably, many people immediately thought of this word. Indeed, it is! A few decades ago, there was an endless desert on the site of the city. Now the sands can only be found outside the city. We will help you organize an active holiday in the sandy expanses. Camel riding, henna painting and beautiful sunset photos — all of your choice!

Details

Do you want to see what Dubai used to look like? Then go to the desert! In just a few decades, glass skyscrapers have grown in place of the sands.

Now the desert is one of the popular tourist destinations. Only here you can experience the Arab world and enjoy the greatness of nature.

What awaits you

You do not need to do anything — we will organize the rest for you. A car will be waiting for you at the hotel at the appointed time, after 5 hours in the desert you will be brought back.

During this time you will feel the atmosphere of the desert and spend your vacation actively at 100%. The program of the individual tour includes:

  • riding on sand dunes
  • camel riding
  • henna painting
  • entertainment program — belly dance and fire show
  • arabic-style dinner with hookah (nfr is also possible to order a program without dinner)
  • photo shoot in national costumes
  • for an additional fee, we will select alcohol for your dinner or arrange a ride on a quad bike or buggy.
  • The UAE has adopted a law banning smoking, including hookahs in public places. This ban is part of a comprehensive program of measures to ensure the safety of the population in a pandemic. In this regard, the hookah is provided only individually in a specially designated place and for a fee.  
  • Please note that there is an extreme safari
  • Please note that tourists from Sharjah and Ajman will be picked up by bus, and then transferred to safari cars.

  • There is no guide on the tour. The drivers are local. The drivers' language is English.
  • During Ramadan from March 23 to April 23, belly dancing is excluded from the show program.
The whole trip far exceeded my expectations! The staff, organization, activities, and food were fantastic. My (mom and two daughters) report: Our guide/driver/dune surf instruction Siddik communicated pickup time, and arrived promptly. The dune bashing was fun and my kids enjoyed it too. After the drive on the dunes, a quick photo shoot, and on to try sand sledding and surfing. The photos made my day! Siddik coaxed the kids into position and took awesome photos! He also convinced me, mama, to try sand surfing after my 11 year old nailed it on the first try. At the camp, there are people from all groups (same company though), with shisha, henna, beverages, souvenirs, a falcon to pose with, etc for no extra charge! We were assigned a table and called to dinner and dessert interspersed with shows on the stage.

our tour guide was an absolute delight! Such a great time from start to finish! The activities, while amazing, are not for the weak-stomached, so make sure you prepare for the ride that is Dune Bashing! Wonderful campsite with a wonderful vibe!

This experience exceeded our expectations by far! Everything that was promised was delivered ... and some! Truly one of the best experiences of my life . Rashid was nothing short of a perfect guide. From the moment he picked us up , he was full of energy and knowledge and made the one hour car ride seem like a minute . We stopped at a market & got traditional head scarves. He recommended NOT eating before the sand bashing which I absolutely agree with ! Once in the desert we got amazing pictures of the sunset. Rashid was extremely tech saavy & not only took all of our photos but air dropped them all to us throughout the excursion. After the sand bashing we rode camels, took pictures with the falcon and ate traditional Arabic food that was to die for! Hands down some of the best food I’ve had in my whole life .

Our guide picked us up at our hotel exactly at the time that we were told. We immediately connected well with him and after picking up two more guests we were on our way. Our guide was very informative throughout the trip and provided clear instructions so we could easily follow along. The quad riding, desert bashing, sand surfing we all incredible! Great driving ! On one of the stops, he took us aside and took the best pictures ever! He asked us to pose and jump in all kinds of scenes and the resulting pictures are absolutely stunning! These will end up on instagram and in nice frames back home, for sure! This really makes this one-time experience unforgettable! We stayed overnight and had a great evening program with a camel ride, great dinner and an even better relax/chill time with arabic coffee, tea, dates, sweets, fruit and of course, shisha! Absulutely wonderful! He went above and beyond - great guy! Thank you!

The experience was absolutely amazing. I highly recommend the overnight experience. Our guides were phenomenal hosts. This experience was like none other, the food was plentiful, delicious and wholesome. The activities are engaging and fun. Rafeeq was a more than our tour guide he was our friend and made the experience feel like we were visiting a friend who made us feel very welcome and comfortable. His driving skills during Dune Bashing made for an extra special time. When we come back to Dubai we would love to be. I recommend this experience to anyone thinking about it.

It was perfect. From the first to the last moment we enjoyed every moment. I can highly recommend our guide as a tour guide. It was our our highlight. Especially the dune bashing, the fire at night and the breakfast the next morning in the Bedouin tent. Book it- you will love it

An excellent and a memorable expirence at Dubai desert. Our guide made us feel very comfortable from moment he picked us and throughout the camp experience. A fun and thrilling ride dune bashing with Yasir behind the wheels. The talks over bonfire with falcon giving us company under midnight sky just made it a pleasant and unforgettable experience to hold onto. The facilities, entertainment, food, tent was very enjoyable with hospitality of crew. Thanks for a memorable one.

The activity should be mandatory for all visitors to Dubai. The experiences are second to none and the memories will last forever. The option to do quad biking is definitely one that should be taken up, getting let loose on the dunes is a great way to start the experience before the roller coaster that is the dune bashing in the Land Cruiser. The scenery is breathtaking and there's plenty of photo opportunities while you try sandboarding. From there it gets a lot more leisurely with a camel ride then the evening entertainment which is not to be missed, the fire dancer, tamoura dancer and belly dancer were all excellent and a great way to spend the time between eating.
