Good experience but could have been better. Actually I'll give it 3.5 ⭐ rating. At the dinner camp, the least that can be done, in this hot weather is to have fans. There are no fans or coolers for the guests. This will be a big help. There were NO camels available for rides. Not even one. Mr. Aamir, our chauffeur & guide was EXCELLENT.. 5 ⭐ rating for him.

Booking our desert adventure was very easy despite it being last minute. Customer service was also very helpful with our request. Our tour guide, Mohammad, took care of us very well. We went dune bashing with 2 kids and a senior and he took in mind our preference while making sure we enjoyed the experience. He was very encouraging for all of us to try sandboarding. We all had a blast! He put on music to set the mood in the car and took nice photos at the desert. Camp was clean, lovely food and entertainment. The photographers were too pushy though to sell us photos.

You should definitely go on a desert safari when you visit Dubai. It was a lot of fun and a great experience for us. Amir, our guide, was very nice and also warned us about tourist traps 💸. Unfortunately, we didn't book the quad biking in advance, as the description says that children under 14 are not allowed to ride alone, but it was no problem on site and we paid double the price 😞. Organizationally, everything worked great from the pick-up to the return transport.

We had an amazing experience on the desert safari in Dubai! Our guide, Yasir, was absolutely fantastic – extremely helpful, friendly, and a truly skilled driver. Honestly, his dune bashing skills were on par with Yazeed Al-Rajhi, the current Dakar Rally champion – thrilling, smooth, and so much fun! Sandboarding was also an unforgettable experience – I highly recommend everyone to give it a go. After the adventure in the dunes, the camp experience was also great. The atmosphere, the activities, the shows, and the food were all very well organized and enjoyable. Overall, this excursion exceeded all our expectations. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

Mr. Yasir was an excellent host. He maintained constant communication before our arrival, keeping us informed, and arrived at the pickup location right on time. From there, he took us to the safari, sharing interesting information along the way and earning our complete trust. He drove the Land Cruiser with impressive skill and experience, which made us feel safe and relaxed. He also arranged everything for us — from ATV rides to camel rides — and even dropped us off at our preferred location. Overall, he was fantastic, and we would be delighted to have him as our host for our next adventure.

We had a really enjoyable time on the Dubai Desert Safari! The whole trip was well-organized, and the entertainment – including dune bashing, the fire show, belly dancing, and tanoura – was exciting and fun. It was a great way to experience the desert.

We truly enjoyed the entire experience and had a lot of fun. Definitely a memorable part of our Dubai visit! Highly recommended.

We had an incredible time on our recent desert safari, an absolute thrill from start to finish. The quad biking and sandboarding got the adrenaline pumping, and the dune bashing was hands-down one of the most exciting parts. The evening camp show was lively and full of energy, and it really brought the whole experience together. Huge shoutout to Ranjit, our guide and driver. He was a true professional, super friendly, and clearly knew his way around the dunes like a master. He made sure everything ran smoothly and kept the vibe fun throughout. While the VIP experience had its quirks, it definitely added a layer of comfort. Unlimited food and drinks were nice, and despite a few distractions here and there, the main performances were spot-on and beautifully done. Overall, the safari was packed with fun, adventure, and memorable moments. We left with big smiles and even bigger stories to tell!

Overall, the experience was total satisfactory, particularly with Mr. Najam, a professional Dune bash driver who provided an exhilarating desert ride in a four-wheel drive vehicle. Despite the arid desert setting, the Atlanta tourism desert dance show and buffet provided an enjoyable experience.

We had an incredible experience of desert safari, our tour driver Mr. Najam were very professional, made the drive very comfortable and full of fun during sand bashing. Our group consisted of one senior citizen and one infant but Mr. Najam made it very comfortable and everybody enjoyed... At Atlanta it was a good show in the evening.. Only thing is the dinner which was very average.. Overall it was a nice experience..

Even though I had a great driver and tour guide, the tour itself was very underwhelming. All the guide did was sit me and 2 other people in his 4x4 land cruiser and just drift around some desert land. When he took us to the camel rides, we found out it was not a ride. We just pose for pictures with the camels. That the actual ride comes at an additional cost. I had quad bike included in my package too, and just like the camel ride, it was mostly to spin the quad bike in circle. The tour guide mentioned that to actual have a camel tour or quad bike tour, this would cost extra hundreds off dollars. No where in headout was this mentioned that the camel and quad bike experience would be just stationary events not actual excursions tours. I actually feel this was poorly advertised and I should get a full refund or partial refund as the tour did not live up to its expectations. Lastly, 1 of the other guests was vomiting during the 4x4 desert tour, as I mentioned before, the 4x4 tour was just mostly going in circles in high speed. Even after all that, I spent an extra money to take pictures with a falcon. At the price I paid for this package, the falcon should have neen included as well as some professional photos. It upsets me that my experience was very underwhelming versus what I had paid for.

Hi there ! Let's start with the negative points : - The duration mentioned was 5h but we finished the activities in about 1:30h - The camel ride took roughly 7mn - The Quad biking activity is held inside a small circle which is good for families with kids... not thrill seekers. There should be a clearer description of the Quad biking activities like what's included or not and the upgrade options so the client won't be surprised when asked to pay 300aed for a ride out of the circle. The positive points : - Good activities for clients who want to have a quick taste of the desert safari and not spend the whole day out. - Ricardo was super friendly yet professional and went out of his way to make sure the experience was a success. - Good value for money if the client doesn't pay any "upgrade" fees. - The dune bashing was entertaining. Will I recommend ? Yes for peolple who want a quick fun activity.

Overalll it was lots of fun - however there were a crazy amount of people at this particular camp (Red Canyon was the name I believe). There was also more garbage than I would have expected to see in the desert and that was disappointing. I just think this goes back to my first and second point - try to go to one that isn't so jammed packed and if possible get a recommendation for one that takes you further out. We ended up at this one because we purchased a hot air balloon ride at sunrise and that was really cool - and received a discount invite to go to a desert camp. If you know someone local ask them or possibly someone at the place you're staying. Good luck and I hope this review helps you! Dubai is amazing and you're bound to have fun and memorable experiences with all your activities! Look around a bit

The quad tour itself was great. We booked a 4-hour program because we had another activity planned afterward, which we had also paid for in advance. Our first driver picked us up along with a nice family, but we only later found out that this family had booked the extended program that lasts into the evening — something we absolutely didn’t want to take part in, which is exactly why we chose the 4-hour option. Despite this, the first driver took us to the location of the night program, even though I told him that we needed to return to Dubai. I had to argue with him, but it didn’t get me very far — he just said that another driver would come for us, but he didn’t know when. It was obvious he didn’t care about our problem at all — probably because he was getting a higher commission from the other family’s booking. Eventually, I managed to talk to an organizer who actually wanted to help, and he asked another driver to take us back, since the first driver simply refused. The second driver was kind and helpful, unlike the first one. We still missed our program, and no one is going to compensate us for it. All in all, I wouldn’t recommend booking here to anyone.

We had an amazing experient with Ranjith. He communicated ahead of time on the schedule. Took us to the buggy rides and make the whole process easy. The dune bashing was the best, amazing ride - he took photos and we also did some sand sleding down a dune. He was also very accommodative on our needs and knew when to slow down. Our kids loved it and thank you for the great experience

I recently booked a private dessert safari tour with Ahmed. He was amazing at his job. He was very humble and polite. Dune bashing was thrilling as well. He also recommended us to the VIP camp which i think was the best as it included buffet and proper seating area. Overall the tour was amazing and i would do it again with Ahmed. I highly recommend Ahmed if you are looking for a good dessert tour!

We had an amazing experient with Ranjith. He communicated ahead of time on the schedule. Took us to the buggy rides and make the whole process easy. The dune bashing was the best, amazing ride - he took photos and we also did some sand sleding down a dune. He was also very accommodative on our needs and knew when to slow down. Our kids loved it and thank you for the great experience

The dune cruise itself was really good. The food and drinks could be improved. The food was not particularly tasty, to put it nicely. Coke and Sprite etc. came from self-serve containers. Not an issue in itself. However, if the taste is lacking, you are forced to buy cans, for better or worse. But then they taste good too. We would book a trip to the dunes again at any time. The driver was also very nice. We would do without the rest in future. Not worth it and not worth the money. It was called camel riding...on arrival it said two minutes included. If you want more you pay...Henna included...on arrival, small henna included, slightly larger you have to pay. In the end, the experience was twice as expensive as originally paid.

We had an amazing desert safari experience thanks to our guide Mr.Syed Ahmed. He was incredibly friendly, made us feel comfortable right away, and shared a lot of interesting insights about the desert. The ride was thrilling but safe, and his knowledge really added to the whole adventure. Highly recommended!

Desert Rollercoaster with Hassan! Hassan was an absolute legend behind the wheel! His dune driving was like a desert rollercoaster — fast, fun, and totally safe. We were laughing, cheering, and hanging on for dear life (in the best way)! If you want a wild ride and a great time, ask for Hassan. 100% recommended!

I recently booked a private dessert safari tour with Ahmed. He was amazing at his job. He was very humble and polite. Dune bashing was thrilling as well. He also recommended us to the VIP camp which i think was the best as it included buffet and proper seating area. Overall the tour was amazing and i would do it again with Ahmed. I highly recommend Ahmed if you are looking for a good dessert tour!

First of all Muhammad Munir was a perfect gent when we got to the sunrise spot we had coffee and dates waited for a few minutes for the sun to come up Muhammad took photos for me and my wife as the sun was coming up. The desert was very peaceful and a beautiful place. The dune bashing was fantastic real fun, expertly driven. Breakfast was simple but very nice water, juices, yogurt/smoothie drink. Fruit, pastrys and sandwiches/ wraps. Then onto love lake/flamingo like where we took more photos. It was an awesome experience definitely recommend 5*.

the driver arrived at 3pm, instead of 2 as was declared on the site. Also, stopped to fill the bus tank. The bus was crowded and the space was limited during covid situation. The event itself was ok, but didnt like there were hidden details like the buffet opens at 7:30. The SUV time was fun but short.

The overall Desert Safari experience is over rated. The food is below par, activities except for fire show quite ordinary, and overall not very thrilling what I expected. However I'm rating this highly only for the reason that my car driver Commando made every effort to make it awesome. I'm thankful to him and he worked hard to make our experience enjoyable. Thank you to Commando, and I hope you work to make desert safari a better experience.

We had an amazing experience on the desert safari in Dubai! Our guide, Yasir, was absolutely fantastic – extremely helpful, friendly, and a truly skilled driver. Honestly, his dune bashing skills were on par with Yazeed Al-Rajhi, the current Dakar Rally champion – thrilling, smooth, and so much fun! Sandboarding was also an unforgettable experience – I highly recommend everyone to give it a go. After the adventure in the dunes, the camp experience was also great. The atmosphere, the activities, the shows, and the food were all very well organized and enjoyable. Overall, this excursion exceeded all our expectations. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip!

Visiting the Burj Khalifa – At The Top was truly a once-in-a-lifetime moment. The elevator ride itself was thrilling, reaching Levels 124 & 125 in seconds. The views from the observation decks were absolutely stunning – you can see the entire city, the desert, and the coastline all at once. The floor-to-ceiling glass windows and open-air terrace make it perfect for taking amazing photos. The staff were friendly and the whole process was smooth from entry to exit. If you’re in Dubai, this is an experience you simply can’t miss!

We truly enjoyed the entire experience and had a lot of fun. Definitely a memorable part of our Dubai visit! Highly recommended.

Had an amazing experience visiting Ferrari World Abu Dhabi and Burj Khalifa Dubai – both iconic in their own way! Ferrari World was all about thrill and speed – especially the Formula Rossa, the world’s fastest roller coaster! An absolute must-try if you love adventure. Burj Khalifa was just magical. The view from the top left me speechless – went around sunset, and it was the perfect timing. 🎟️ Booked everything via Headout – super smooth, great deals, and no waiting in long lines.

The museum of the future tour is very interesting, stay there for the 3rd floor, it's a therapy session of it's own with the calming activities. You can soend as much time inside the museum as you want.

Our driver, Khan Shab, was very punctual in picking us up to take us to the safari. The vehicle was very clean and in excellent condition for the transfer. Syed was very cordial, attentive to all our concerns, very respectful, and helpful. In short, his service was excellent.

Though the weather was hot but the experience of visiting 124 & 125th Floor at the Top of Burj Khalifa was very good and memorable I wanted to go to 148th floor but was too expensive, I request Headout to conisder discounts when more than 1 person is visiting. But its worth visiting, I really enjoyed the visit and look forward to visit again with Family

It was very organised. The Tour guide Soni contacted via WhatsApp several times that day and even with an exact pick up time. He was very polite and curtious as I was a solo female traveler. He took pictures for me and always checked in during activities. This was my first tour as a solo traveler and I couldn't have been happier how comfortable Soni made me feel. Great tour highly recommend especially the sand dunes very skilled driver

I highly advise everyone to take the opportunity and buy combined tickets, for example Burj Khalifa + aquarium on the territory of Dubai Mall - it's just fantastic. Everything is in one place, you can first go up to Burj Khalifa 124-125 floors (you have to go up there at exactly the specified time, and you can stay up there - as much as you like), there is a terrace, for more fullness of sensations and better quality photos....Enjoy the view of the city and the sea - you can go for a snack on the top floor of Dubai Mall, where a lot of all kinds of cafes, burger shops, etc. are concentrated. And then watch the aquarium, rainforest, penguins with crocodiles, feed the fish and many other things, no less interesting...you can come to the aquarium at any time, but the only thing is, of course, on the day for which you bought a ticket. I started my tour at six o'clock to get to the observation deck of Burj Khalifa and catch the sunset - it's very beautiful, you have to see, the photo can not convey it... I had 5 hours for all the adventures together with the aquarium. Since the center works until 00:00 hours, no problems, a couple of hours at altitude - rest and a snack - a trip to the aquarium, everything is just super!!!!

Everything was perfect, we went with a child, the driver connected us via WhatsApp , picked us up from the hotel , we had two girles more with us, but the car was comfortable and space was enough. We got exciting ride on dunes, even more than expected, but nevertheless it was very careful and safe, thanks for that! Great servis. The evening was spent outside with the supper , dancing events and fireshow, we liked it a lot, it was really good experience for the first time visit!

Despite a shaky start as I was at the Dubai Mall and then caught a taxi to the Burj only to find out the entrance to At The Top was back at Dubai Mall, I thoroughly enjoyed the experience. The lift to the top was amazing as were the views.

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.

Booking our desert adventure was very easy despite it being last minute. Customer service was also very helpful with our request. Our tour guide, Mohammad, took care of us very well. We went dune bashing with 2 kids and a senior and he took in mind our preference while making sure we enjoyed the experience. He was very encouraging for all of us to try sandboarding. We all had a blast! He put on music to set the mood in the car and took nice photos at the desert. Camp was clean, lovely food and entertainment. The photographers were too pushy though to sell us photos.

Desert Rollercoaster with Hassan! Hassan was an absolute legend behind the wheel! His dune driving was like a desert rollercoaster — fast, fun, and totally safe.

Dubai Desert Safari - Al Aweer Desert

How do you choose the right Dubai desert safari location? Some of the best locations to go for a desert safari are:
1. Al Aweer Desert: about 35 minutes from the heart of the city, Deira City Centre. Find on maps.
2. Lahbab Desert: about 40 minutes from DCC. Find on maps.
3. Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve: about 40 minutes from DCC. Find on maps.

Factors to consider:
1. Activities: outer area locations like Lahbab desert are ideal for adventure activities like sandboarding and quad biking due to the large expanse of sand dunes. 
2. Premium vs standard experience: if you are looking for a luxury experience which includes nature safaris, these generally take place at premium locations such as Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve.
3. Morning vs evening experience: locations like Al Aweer generally host morning experiences while larger desert locations like Lahbab, Hatta Mountains offer evening experiences to accommodate dining, live entertainment, and even overnight stays.

Dubai Desert Safari - Location

You might be wondering, considering the far-off location of the different desert safari locations, how would you go about planning your commute back and forth? 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. 

2. Meeting point: Or, we pick you up from one of many common pick-up points in the city. You’ll have the option of choosing a convenient location near you. You’ll be picked up at a previously-agreed upon time and dropped back to the meeting point after the experience.

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.

Dubai Desert Safari - Dress code

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.
