4x4 Dubai Desert Safari

Travel by 4WD across the deserts of Dubai on an afternoon excursion that takes you sandboarding on the sands and dining under the stars. Heading into the desert is a must-do experience when you're visiting Dubai.

Zipping along by 4WD, you'll have several photo stops during an exciting drive across the dunes to your first destination, a camel farm. The drive continues across the desert and you will witness a beautiful desert sunset. It's one of the highlights of a trip to the Arabian desert.

Upon arrival at your campsite, you have the opportunity to ride on a camel, experience the thrill of sandboarding and try out a henna design on your hands or feet.

After all that activity you will have worked up an appetite, so enjoy a delicious BBQ dinner and a shisha (the famous Arabic water pipe). The evening also includes a belly dancer performing her show around the campfire in the moonlight (except during Ramadan).

Please note: The belly dancer does not perform during Ramadan (approximately mid-September to mid-October) and alcohol will only be served after 7pm.
