Why go on a Dubai Desert Safari?

The question you should ask instead, is why NOT go for a desert safari in Dubai? You’ll find 50 reasons why you should try out this once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Unique desert landscape? Check

Nail-biting adventure activities? Check

All-inclusive experience with meals & entertainment? Check

While this barely scratches the surface, let’s actually convince you to go ahead and book a desert safari in Dubai. 

Never seen before landscape

You’ve seen sandy beaches and sky-high mountains – but have you actually visited a desert? The raw, unique landscape boasts an endless expanse of golden sand dunes, as far as your eyes can see! And imagine this, the magnificent cherry on top is an unobstructed view of the glorious sunsets that only a desert landscape can witness. Need added incentive? Spot rare wildlife like the Arabian oryx, Arabian gazelle, and even the Pharaoh eagle.

Action-packed activities

Now that the landscape has you convinced, the next important reason to actually visit the desert is to sink your feet in and explore. Go for a gritty dune buggy or quad biking experience to actually drive through the desert! Try sandboarding and feel the rush as you zoom across the sand dunes. With your family and friends, enjoy the thrill of dune bashing as you feel the bumps and jolts while you drive along the dunes. 

Buffet, kahwa, & more

After all the adventure, you are bound to feel like you can eat a meal worth 3 people. All desert safaris include a massive BBQ buffet breakfast, lunch or dinner [depending on the safari you choose]. You’ll be treated to a delicious assortment of local delicacies, both vegetarian and non-vegetarian, along with kahwa, dessert, refreshments, and more. Eat to your heart’s content and then some!

Discover Bedouin culture

Like any country on this planet, the UAE is home to local tribes that built its foundation – the Bedouins, a vast tribe with a fascinating history of survival. On a desert safari, you have the rare opportunity to meet the Bedouins, engage in conversation about their life and lifestyle, eat their freshly prepared meals, hop on for a camel ride, and even – if you are lucky – stay in a local camp!

Endless Instagram-worthy shots

The photo opportunities in a desert, like any other natural landscape, are endless. Who wouldn’t want a photo with the backdrop of a magnificent sunset right behind them? Get some frame-worthy shots of your adventurous side as you drive a dune buggy or glide across the dunes. Capture the wild animals and birds around, make memories of the graceful belly dancers and performers, and more. 

No visit to Dubai is complete without a desert safari. It’s the only way to truly understand and experience the vast range of extraordinary things you can do in Dubai. Step back, head away from the city, and spend your day in the mysterious desert.

How to choose the best desert safari – an easy booking guide?

The most sought-after question: just how do you make a decision to choose the right desert safari? So many factors to consider, from budget and safari type to inclusions, location, and more. 

If this question has you baffled, don’t worry, we’ve broken it down into easy-to-consume information and also provided recommended experiences to help you make a quick, informed decision. 

Pre-booking [premium vs standard point]

Before we get into the process of how to choose the best desert safari, here are some basics to know about the kind of experiences you are about to encounter.

  • You can choose from a morning or evening desert safari.
  • Every desert safari includes a list of default activities like dune bashing and a list of add-ons for an additional expense like quad biking.
  • Every desert safari you purchase from us includes return transfers, so don’t consider commute as a factor for choosing the right safari.
  • Both morning and evening safaris include veg and non-veg buffet meals; however, compared to standard safaris, premium ones have a better selection of drinks, appetizers, and main course dishes.
  • Live entertainment is included only in evening desert safaris, not morning safaris

Morning vs evening safari

Deciding between a morning or evening safari is crucial when booking your Dubai desert adventure. Morning safaris offer a thrilling escape with breathtaking sunrises and adventure activities, ideal if you are looking to skip live entertainment and go for just the experience. On the other hand, evening safaris provide a more comprehensive experience with cultural immersion, live entertainment, and a delightful sunset. For a quick, adrenaline-fueled adventure, choose the morning safari. For a more leisurely, immersive experience, the evening safari awaits.

Our recommended morning safari: Sunrise Desert Safari with Picnic Breakfast

Our recommended evening safari: Red Dune Safari with Entertainment & BBQ Dinner

Weather and temperature

Dubai's summer months (May to October) bring hot and dry weather, with temperatures reaching up to 50°C (122°F). During these months, evening safaris are preferable due to cooler desert temperatures, which typically range from 25°C to 30°C (77°F to 86°F).

Winter months (October to April) offer pleasant temperatures suitable for both morning and evening safaris. During the day, temperatures range from 20°C to 25°C (68°F to 77°F), making morning safaris comfortable. Evenings are even cooler, with temperatures dropping to 10°C to 15°C (50°F to 59°F), making evening safaris a cozy option to enjoy the desert's beauty under the stars.

Our recommended safari for the summer: Evening Red Dune Desert Safari with Buffet Dinner

Our recommended safari for the winter: Morning Desert Safari with Camel Farm Visit & Sandboarding

Budget

Desert safaris are a popular activity in Dubai, and there is a wide range of prices to choose from. Safaris typically range from AED 60 to AED 2000, with the price depending on the location, duration, activity inclusions, and other services and facilities offered.

Standard safaris (up to AED 200): These safaris are typically 4-6 hours long and include a short dune bashing and camel ride experience, followed by a simple buffet meal.

Recommended experience: Budget-Friendly Evening Desert Safari

Mid-range safaris (AED 200-AED 600): These safaris are typically 6-10 hours long and include a host of adventure activities, such as dune buggy riding, sandboarding, and quad biking. The buffet options are also more widespread.

Recommended experience: 20 Mins Quad Bike, Desert Safari & Entertainment

Premium safaris (AED 600 and above): These safaris are the ultimate desert experiences and offer comfort, luxury, and the opportunity to immerse yourself completely in local bedouin culture. They include all of the activities of the mid-range safaris, as well as wildlife safaris, stargazing, private transfers, and overnight stays.

Recommended experience: Ultra Luxury Desert Safari, Wildlife Tour & Fine Dining

Activities

A desert safari is incomplete without thrilling adventure activities. Standard safaris include dune bashing and camel rides. Depending on your chosen package, you can add quad biking, sandboarding, or dune buggy riding for a fee. Pick activities based on your interests and budget.

Dune bashing and camel rides suit families and groups, while solo travelers, couples, and smaller groups prefer sandboarding, quad biking, and dune buggy rides. Activity durations vary by safari; standard options offer 10-minute quad biking and 15-minute dune bashing, while higher-priced safaris provide 20-30 minutes of quad biking and 40-45 minutes of dune bashing.

Recommended experience for standard activities: Red Dune Safari with Entertainment & BBQ Dinner

Recommended experience for premium activities: Premium Red Dunes Desert Safari in Dubai

Duration

Another interesting factor to consider when looking for the perfect Dubai desert safari is the duration of each experience. Once you decide on whether you want to go for a morning or evening desert safari, you can narrow down on the duration. 

Morning safaris typically last between 3-6 hours, usually starting from a 7 am pick-up. Due to the early nature of this experience, once you are done, you’ll have the whole day to explore the city and get through your itinerary.

Since evening safaris are ideal for travelers looking for a complete desert experience, these last longer. You can easily expect to spend your entire evenings in the desert, sometimes up to 9 hours. Typical pick up times are from 3 pm. Consider evening safaris only if you have the time and space in your schedule to experience all activities to the fullest.

Now that you have narrowed down your options based on our suggestions, here’s a quick booking guide. In just 3 steps, you’ll have a confirmed booking.

Step 1: Click on Check Availability to see if the desert safari is available on your preferred date.

Step 2: If yes, select the preferred date and customize your package based on the activities you want to opt for.

Step 3: Update guest details and add the correct pick-up point for your transfers. Once done, make your payment and you’re read

Where to book my Dubai desert safari: Online vs on-site booking

You can choose to book your desert safari on-site, i.e., the hotel you are staying at or by visiting a local operator in Dubai. The procedure would be similar where you would be picked up from either your hotel or a common meeting point in the city and taken for your safari.

Alternatively, you can book your safari online with us. Here are a few reasons to convince you:

1. Choice, choices, choices

If you look to book a desert safari on-site, you won’t be able to choose the one that best suits your budget, schedule, and interests. You’ll have a few options from the local operator partnered to your hotel which may not suit your requirements.

However, if you choose to book online with us, not only do you have an interesting variety of options across wide budget ranges, but you can actually customize your experience based on the activities you want to try. 

2. Trust factor

We’ve catered to over 15 million guests worldwide who have enjoyed their chosen desert experiences. Just take a look at our reviews and testimonials to convince you we are the right platform. We also offer 24/7 customer support to answer any query you may have regarding the booking or the experience. 

At a hotel, you’ll have to go with a local operator who you may not know about. 

3. Convenience   

Why wait in long lines at your local operator’s office or your hotel reception as you browse through pamphlet after pamphlet, when you can just check the inclusions of each desert safari and book your preferred one in under 5 minutes online? Save time and book in advance to secure your experience.

4. Discounts & cashback

The most important benefit of booking your safari with us is that we offer exclusive online-only discounts & cashback. An experience which you may get at your hotel or operator’s office for AED 200, with your guest-friendly discounts, you can easily expect to save 20% on your total booking and even get 5%-10% cashback. You won’t have to settle for local prices or pay an additional amount for activities.

Dubai Desert Safari - Location

If you need added incentive to book with us, we offer round-trip return transfers on all our desert safaris. You’ll travel in a comfortable 4x4 air-conditioned vehicle with a local driver who will engage in interesting conversation during your journey. How does this work?

1. Direct pick up: We pick you up directly from your hotel located in Dubai. The driver will arrive at your location at a previously-agreed upon time, and drop you back to the hotel after the safari.

Dubai Desert Safari - Thing to keep in mind

Morning Safari: Opt for loose, comfortable clothing, such as linen pants and cotton shirts, to protect you from the sun and keep you cool.

Evening Safari: Layer with a sweater or light jacket to combat the cooler desert temperatures.

Accessories: Keep it simple with a hat and sunglasses for a morning safari or a sweater/shawl and a small water bottle for an evening safari.

Shoes: Closed-toe shoes, like sneakers or boots, are recommended to protect your feet from the hot sand and prevent sand from entering during activities like sandboarding and quad-biking.

Since all our desert safaris include full breakfast/lunch or dinner meals, we would recommend you eat light. Maybe a quick snack like cereal, a sandwich, or a smoothie would keep you full until it’s time for your dining experience. Avoid heavy, greasy, or oily meals since you may feel nauseous during activities like dune bashing, which includes lots of movement. 

While there’s no health restriction limit for any guest to experience the thrill of a desert safari, adventure activities like dune bashing, quad biking, etc., are not recommended for pregnant women or guests with heart conditions, respiratory conditions, epilepsy, etc. If you have a doubt about your medical condition, it’s best to get advice from your local physician. 

Age: the only age restriction on desert safari experiences is for adventure activities. Children under the age of 3 are not permitted to try dune bashing, quad biking, sandboarding, and dune buggy rides.
