Description

Dubai: Desert Safari, Quad Bike, Camel Ride & Al Khayma Camp

Discover the desert outside of Dubai on a guided red dunes desert safari. Enjoy the opportunity to take part in a variety of activities, including thrilling dune bashing, optional quad biking, a serene camel ride, and interactions with falcons. Opt for an extended tour to experience dinner and entertainment at a traditional desert camp. You will be picked up from your hotel or selected location in Dubai in an air-conditioned 4x4 vehicle by your guide. From there, you'll be taken comfortably to the Dubai desert, with a brief stop along the way to adjust the tyre pressure for a smooth desert drive. During this time, you can use the restroom facilities, take photos with falcons, or try optional quad biking if you're interested. Once at the desert, get ready for an exciting session of dune bashing with trained drivers. The thrill of sliding down the dunes adds extra fun to your adventure, making it unforgettable. Afterward, try your hand at sandboarding down the sandy slopes, perfect for snapping memorable photos of the beautiful desert landscape. Next, stop at the Red Dunes desert and enjoy a camel ride in the open desert. Then, relax in an air-conditioned tent as you enjoy soft drinks, water, Arabic tea or coffee with dates. For those opting for the extended 7-hour tour, head to the Al Khayma camp where you will be welcomed with rose water, Arabic coffee, local sweets, and dates. Say hello to the camp's resident camels and, if you like, hop on for a ride across the dunes. The camp's activities include camel feeding, falcon interactions, henna painting, Arabic coffee and tea, and even a shisha station. Enjoy some entertainment shows and have a delicious BBQ dinner at the camp. As the tour comes to an end, you'll be comfortably dropped off back at your hotel or selected location, having experienced the best of Dubai's desert activities and hospitality.

Wir hatten eine wunderschöne und beeindruckende Wüstentour mit anschließendem Besuch im Camp. Unser Fahrer und Guide Ramzan hat uns sehr pünktlich vom Hotel abgeholt und sich hervorragend um uns gekümmert – stets aufmerksam und herzlich, ohne dabei jemals aufdringlich zu sein. Wir hatten ausreichend Zeit, alles in Ruhe zu genießen. Auch das Essen im Camp war hervorragend! Insgesamt ein unvergessliches Erlebnis, das wir jederzeit weiterempfehlen würden. Vielen Dank an Ramzan für die vielen Tipps und diesen tollen Ausflug!

I chose this as I only wanted to do a relatively short trip but fit in as much as possible in the time. We were a family group of 4 with ages ranging from 19 to 85 and it was an excellent trip that everyone really enjoyed . Asif was an excellent host and everything ran smoothly and on time. Amazing value for money and would highly recommend.
