Dubai Desert Safari and Sunset Barbecue

Riding in a luxury 4-Wheel Drive vehicle experience the wild majesty of the Arabian Desert as you enjoy the thrill of ‘dune bashing’ – an exciting roller coaster-of-a-drive over giant sand dunes. Then watch the full glory of a desert sunset before heading to a Bedouin Camp for a delicious barbecue dinner.

A ‘must-do’ experience for anyone visiting Dubai! Dive into the desert for a thrilling adventure.
You’ll be picked up in a modern, air-conditioned 4x4 and taken on an exhilarating dune drive across the Arabian Desert with an expert driver. Feel the excitement as you race up and down giant sand dunes for about 30 minutes—guaranteed to deliver laughter and excitement!
At the top of the largest dune, soak in the breathtaking desert sunset and snap some Instagram-worthy photos. Then, head to an exclusive traditional Bedouin campsite nestled deep in the sands. Here, you’ll receive a warm welcome with dates and coffee, and you can even try camel riding or sand surfing while a delicious barbecue dinner is prepared over open fires.
For a truly immersive experience, unwind with a traditional aromatic water pipe (Shisha) and don’t miss the chance to get a beautiful henna tattoo on your hands or feet. Dinner is served under the stars, featuring shawarma and falafel sandwiches as starters, followed by a mouthwatering BBQ buffet with side dishes, soft drinks, mineral water, coffee and tea.
Finally, let yourself be captivated by Tanoura and belly dancing performances under the Arabian sky—a magical end to your unforgettable desert adventure!
Prefer a more exclusive experience? Opt for the private tour and enjoy all the highlights in your very own 4x4, without sharing with other guests. Perfect for families, friends, or couples seeking a personalised adventure.
