Explore the immensity of the UAE desert on this thrilling overnight 4X4 safari adventure. See the rocks and dunes glow in the setting sun and camp out under clear desert skies.

Get a taste of Arabia as you watch the entrancing belly dancers while smoking a flavored shisha (hubble bubble pipe) and relishing a delicious barbeque. Have your hands decorated with beautiful henna designs, try out traditional Arabic dresses, or take a camel ride.

After a magical night under a starry sky, enjoy the Hatta Valley, which offers scenes of unexpected beauty like attractive rock pools, surrounded with greenery. Some of these have water year-round and you can enjoy a refreshing splash before coming back to Dubai.

From an adrenaline pumping 4X4 safari in the dunes to camping in true Bedouin-style, your desert safari in UAE will be a mix of leisure, entertainment and adventure!

Itinerary

Pack your spirit of adventure and set off on an Overnight Desert Safari from Dubai.

Day 1:

You will be picked up from your hotel in Dubai in a comfortable coach at 1500h (03:00pm). An English-speaking guide will accompany you on this tour. (Please make sure you are ready for your hotel pick-up as the driver is unable to wait for latecomers.)

You will be taken into the Dubai desert to experience the thrill of a lifetime as the driver takes your 4WD vehicle over the seemingly endless dunes. Like a roller coaster ride, you will go up and down, leaving behind a trail on the satiny sands of the dune. Dip low in the deep trenches and rise high on the pinnacle of the dunes. Drive up to the highest dune and take a break to view the spectacular sunset over the horizon.

Proceed towards the Bedouin campsite located in the heart of the desert. Here you can relish a delicious three-course barbeque buffet dinner (for Menu see Additional Information on this website), get yourself adorned with beautiful henna tattoos, dress in Arab costumes and enjoy a belly dance performance. You also have an option to take a camel ride and try out different flavors of shisha or hubbly bubbly (a traditional tobacco pipe).

You can enjoy these activities while sipping on soft drinks, tea or coffee (as per your choice). Stay overnight in the Bedouin-style camp and admire the starry sky before falling asleep. Sleeping bags will be provided for your comfort.

Day 2:

After a magical night in the silence of the desert, tuck into a breakfast of sandwiches, bread, egg, fresh milk, juices, water, tea and coffee. You will then be driven to the Hatta Wadis, which have attractive rock pools surrounded with greenery, for a refreshing splash before coming back to Dubai.

You will be dropped back to your hotel around 0900h (09:00am).
