What
The Dubai Desert Safari is one of Dubai’s most popular must-do activities. A number of operators offer daily tours for a fun-filled adventure in the desert.
A typical full day schedule normally starts out from your pick up point from where you head out to the desert aboard a 4×4 vehicle. You can choose to visit a camel farm for a chance to ride one of the gentle desert animals. From there, you can move on to a more adventurous ride along the desert dunes. Dune bashing, quad biking and sandboarding are among the favorite activities of thrill-seekers. Spend the night at a Bedouin camp complete with a campfire feast, belly dancing, shisha pipes and henna tattoos.
Why
A desert safari is the best way to immerse in Arabian culture. It is also a good escape for city dwellers who want to take a break from the Dubai city life.
This nature trip gives you an opportunity to be awed by the vast expanse of the desert and admire the ever shifting desertscape of Dubai.
Added adventure
Some desert safari operators also offer balloon rides. Hop on a hot air balloon with a loved one and enjoy a romantic sunset ride across the desert!
