Desert Safari Dubai: morning, evening or overnight
The desert starts 45 minutes from your hotel. Go at sunrise when the dunes are empty, at sunset for dinner and shows under the first stars, or stay the night and wake up to a camel trek. Hotel pickup, licensed drivers and free cancellation up to 24 hours before.
Three ways to live the desert
Sunrise and silence, sunset and dinner, or a whole night under the stars.
Private carMorning Desert Safari
Dubai is still asleep when your driver picks you up. Forty-five minutes later the first light turns the dunes gold, and the desert belongs to your group alone: dune bashing, a camel ride, sandboarding and Arabic coffee, back at your hotel about four hours later.
Best sellerEvening Desert Safari
Our evening desert safari in Dubai starts when the heat fades: an hour of 4×4 dune bashing, the sun sinking behind the dunes, then a camp that lights up for a BBQ dinner, belly dance, Tanoura and a fire show under the first stars. Hotel pickup and drop-off included.
Private tentNight Safari
Most visitors leave the desert at 9 pm. On our overnight desert safari, you stay. After the dune bashing, the dinners and the shows, the camp goes quiet, a guide points a telescope at the stars and you sleep in your own air-conditioned tent. At sunrise, a camel trek and an Arabic breakfast. Back at your hotel around 9 am, AED 950 per person.
