Enjoy a 4-hour morning safari with pick-up from your hotel in a 4x4 Land Cruiser and head off with your local guide to the desert, just a 30-45 minute ride from Dubai.

Along the way, enjoy riding up and down the dunes in the morning sun. Your first activity involves bashing some dunes, driving up and down high sand dunes in the Land Cruiser, to get your adrenaline flowing. Later, have a chance to try sandboarding, one of the most exciting sporting activities in the desert.

Then, go to Al Khayma, and be welcomed by Arabic coffee, sweets (Gawa, Gaymat), and dates. If you'd like, get a camel ride in the nearby area. Finally, be dropped off back at your hotel.

Unser Guide Nadeem war super und hat uns einen unvergesslichen Tag geschenkt

We loved this trip with our guide Nadim. Nadim was super kind, informative and helpful and gave us an extraordinary tour. It was so much fun for my kids 13 and 15 as well. Dune bashing with loud Arabic music was a blast. Thanks Nadim and team!

Arslan was a great guide. We felt most welcome and he told us a lot about the sights.

L expérience nous a beaucoup plus mm si le guide ne parle pas français

Arslan, unser Fahrer war ein sehr netter, freundlicher, zuvorkommend und kompetenter Mann. Jedem würde ich eine Fahrt mit ihm empfehlen! Nicht nur die Organisation war super, sondern auch Arslan. Er ist auf unsere Wünsche eingegangen und hat sich Zeit genommen, sogar als Fotograf hätte er die besten Chancen. Wir können diese Safaritour nur empfehlen. Ein ganz großes Lob und Dankeschön vor allem an Arslan! Großartig gemacht!!!!!
