A desert safari is the one experience that shows you the Arabian landscape, culture and adventure that the city skyline hides — which is why it tops most first-time Dubai itineraries.
Within an hour of the skyscrapers, the Dubai desert opens into rolling dunes that glow gold at sunset. A safari folds several experiences into one evening: the thrill of dune bashing, the calm of a camel walk, the warmth of Arabic hospitality at a Bedouin-style camp, and a dinner under a sky full of stars.
It works for every kind of traveller — adrenaline for adventure seekers, comfort and culture for families, romance for couples, and quiet luxury for those who upgrade to a private or VIP camp. Few activities anywhere blend nature, heritage, food and adventure as completely in a single trip.
Match a package to your budget and travel style. Prices are indicative — see each tour page for live rates.
