Book NowThe Evening Desert Safari is our standard afternoon-to-evening desert trip from Dubai. A licensed safari driver takes you by 4x4 Land Cruiser into a normal (non-red-dune) desert area for approximately 20 minutes of dune bashing, stops for sunset photos, and then brings you to a desert camp for a BBQ buffet dinner and live shows. The whole trip lasts about 6 hours, including hotel pickup and drop-off in Dubai.
It is a good-value way to try the full evening desert programme, and a good fit for first-time visitors, families with children aged 3 and over, and groups who want a lighter dune drive rather than a long one. If this is your first desert safari, our guide for first-time visitors explains how the evening works.

Activity order at the camp depends on sunset time on the day.
Quad bike and dune buggy rides (30 minutes or 1 hour, single or shared seats) and a "Food on Table" dinner service can be added when you book. If you would like a quad ride built into the package, choose the evening safari with quad biking, which includes a 30-minute quad bike ride. A private 4x4 for your own group (up to 6 guests, excluding the driver) is also available as a booking option.

Desert Safari, such as our Evening Desert Safari, is a traditional set of activities inside Bedouin style camp including live performances and adventure drive in land cruiser, camel ride, sand boarding, henna tattoo, costume pictures with more things to do under coverage of different packages.
There is no limit to that as we have many cars and can arrange many more if needed. Also no matter how many people are there in the safari a maximum of 6 guests ride in one 4x4 (excluding the driver) so the size of the group does not effect the quality of the tour.
YES, the main course and the snacks both have vegetarian dishesÂ
Â
We recommend you to wear loose comfortable cloths. For guys shots or cotton pants and for women Salwar Kamiz or pants and T shirts as you will be more comfortable in the sand if you do sand skiing and stuff. Wear comfortable flat shoes; avoid heels and flip-flops. Sun glasses is a good option. The least amount of jewelry is advised for the ladies. Also carrying the least amount of personal belongings is a good idea.
Â
The dune-bashing drive is a bumpy one so that has to be kept in mind. Pregnant women are not advised to participate in dune bashing, and guests with serious back, neck or heart conditions should avoid dune bashing. Also you can advice us in advance if you have a special requirement be it anything and we will try our best to arrange it for you. Also remember there is plenty of water and soft drinks to drink at the camp so you don't need to carry anything with you.Â
Â
you can enjoy unlimited soft drinks, water, tea, coffee, shawarma with falafel, pasta, you can smoke Arabic Huqa inside smoking court area, take pictures in traditional costumes, & get a free henna tattoo on hand (females & kids)
Dune Bashing comes under the category of adventure sports and is only suitable for the people who are ready to take up a rough ride in the sands. Thus, if you feel frightened, sick or fear an injury, it is recommended that you should indulge in other activities that can give you an essence of desert and should not participate in dune bashing. Pregnant women are not advised to participate in dune bashing, and guests with serious back, neck or heart conditions should avoid dune bashing. On a shared desert safari, the dune-bashing portion cannot be skipped while remaining on the same shared service. Camel rides are a great alternative to take a walk in the desert while avoiding the bumpy dune bashing, and a longer morning camel trek is also available.
We can arrange multiple pickups (maximum of 3) for groups larger than 90 passengers.
Our complimentary pick and drop facility is from one desired location only.
Â
Pregnant women are not advised to participate in dune bashing. Guests with serious back, neck or heart conditions should avoid dune bashing. If you have any other health concern, please consult your doctor before booking.
Â
Yes you can book a dinner in the desert instead (this omits the dune bashing activity but includes all other activities).
We recommend not eating any food at least 3 hours prior to the tour due to potential nausea from dune bashing. We also suggest drinking plenty of water throughout the tour, especially in the summer.
Safaris should be kept light, but it is also suggested to keep a hat or sunglasses and don't forget to get a camera (with an extra battery) to capture those cherishable moments.
The main difference between Evening Desert Safari and Red Dunes Evening Desert Safari is the Desert and Dune Bashing time. In normal safari we shall take you in a normal desert and dune bashing will be for approximately 20 minutes. In Red Dunes Evening Desert Safari we shall take you to the red dunes desert and dune bashing will be for approximately 40 to 50 minutes.Â
Evening Desert Safari is the cheapest safari and there will be ques in food and other things. In VIP Desert Safari price is bit higher and there will be a separate table for you friends and family and there will be a separate waiter / waiteress there to serve you everything on your tables
This tour was indeed the highlight of our trip to Dubai! Enjoyed every minute of it!! We were picked up by our driver Sahib who welcomes us with a smile. He is such an excellent driver cum tour guide. Very knowledgeable, he could answer all our questions about the country. He is also an excellent driver and for someone with motion sickness like myself, I was thankful to be seated in front beside him as that surely helps a lot in managing the motion sickness. He was very reassuring and ensured that we all had our safety belts on for the sand dunes bashing particularly. He constantly checks on us in the car to ensure that we are all doing alright. At the campsite, he came especially to the 4 of us who took his car to ensure that we had our dinner and even brought the drinks to us. Am very thankful to get him as our guide. Upon arrival at the campsite, we were given shawarma first to fill our hungry stomachs as they prepare the BBQ dinner. This is an excellent service as we were really hungry after all those sand bashing. We were indeed well fed as the BBQ dinner was also awesome! The other best thing is everything is already included, the food, the camel ride, the sandboarding, the falcon show. You only need to add money for the ATV if you want. I just wished that the camel ride was a little longerrr. Hehe.. Apart from that, I stronglyy recommend this tour and you shouldnt leave Dubai without it. ;)

Excellent tour, guides are knowledgeable however staying relevant is important for the guides, being over friendly doesn't help as tours might feel uneasy. Over all experience was super the company has experienced drivers and well maintained cars. We reached the camp at maghrib, one thing I missed was maghrib adhan in the desert it would have been breath taking for Muslims and experience of the glorious words for non Muslims. When we can have other announcements and loud music on public address why not adhan. Javaid was a good guide very friendly.

This tour has many features, with some being wonderful and others being very fine. We were picked up promptly as arranged at our hotel by Ali (our guide and driver) and he told us about some interesting features of Dubai on the way to "the desert." Once there, he raced us "over desert and dunes" in the 4x4 and it was thrilling to those whose previous experiences have been somewhat subdued. To the rest of us, it was fun and scenic. We then went to a "modern oasis" where we were able to ride quad bikes (driving them ourselves) and ride a camel. Again, for those who'd had these experiences before, this was "fun" and for the others it was "delightful."
