Description

Dubai: Dune Buggy Desert Safari, Camel Ride & Sandboarding

The experience begins with pickup from your hotel in Dubai and heads out to the Lehbab Desert where adventure awaits. Arrive at the dune buggy center and get kitted out with all the necessary safety gear while listening to the instructions from your safari captain. Drive your 1000cc buggy out onto the sand dunes and enjoy an hour of thrill-seeking. Speed through the desert landscape and glide across peculiar sand formations, feeling the buzz of adrenaline rush through your body from start to finish. Once you’ve had some fun on the buggies, it’s time for the next activity of the day. Grab a sandboard and hit the slopes, sliding and slipping your way across the dunes. This is the final activity for guests who opt for the 4-hour experience. After sandboarding, the experience continues with more fun-filled activities at the nearby Al Khayma Desert Camp. Here you can enjoy a camel ride across the sandy landscapes, get a traditional henna tattoo, or watch an incredible falcon show. Once you’ve worked up a bit of an appetite, dine on a tasty BBQ dinner and relax as you partake in the traditional Dubai pastime of shisha smoking. At the end of an unforgettable day, sit back and relax on the return journey to your city hotel.

If you have Aleem as a guide, the trip and services will be excellent. The buggy and the photos are exceptional. The camel ride and catering part is a dive into oriental culture.

SHANIF was very attentive and took great care of our transportation to and from the desert. I was quite hesitant before starting the dune buggy, but once it began, I quickly found myself totally immersed in this fun and exciting experience, and realized how safe the dune buggy riding is! During the drive, he also made an effort to introduce and explain the sights we saw along the highway. Highly recommend the Dune Buggy Desert Safari and SHANIF!

Our desert buggy tour was fantastic! Taymour, our driver, was super friendly and made sure we had an incredible time. Sandboarding was a blast, and the photos captured all the best moments. The BBQ at the camp was delicious, and the show added the perfect touch to end the day. Highly recommend this tour for anyone looking for a fun and memorable desert experience!
