Description
Experience the best of the desert on an overnight safari from Dubai. Try traditional activities, like henna tattooing and shisha smoking. Enjoy a buffet dinner and dance performance. In the morning, wake at dawn to experience sunrise with a morning camel ride, and delicious breakfast.
After being collected from your hotel in a comfortable 4WD Land Cruiser, journey for approximately 60 minutes to the Lahbab desert. Once in the desert, take 20 minutes to break before your safari starts. You can either relax here or opt to go for a quad-bike ride while your vehicle for the off-road dune drive is prepared.
Go for a dune bashing ride that lasts 30-45 minutes, where you can feel peculiar excitement as your Land Cruiser climbs up and slides down the sand dunes. Following this, try the adventure sport of sandboarding. Stand on the wooden board provided, balance yourself and glide down over the sands.
After sandboarding, head to Bedouin type campsite, where you will be lead to your own tent inside the camp. After settling in here, taste Gahwa (Arabic coffee), Gaymat (sweets) and dates as a sign of welcome. Go for a camel ride around the camp premises, and depending on the time and luck, view the sunset over the desert.
Back at Desert Camp, spend your time shisha smoking and henna painting. Put on a local Arabian cloth and pose for photos with a falcon, and at the camp center stage, a Tanoura dance will be performed. Be invited for a lavish buffet dinner full of barbecue dishes, whilst at the stage, a belly dancer will keep you entertained.
Following dinner, be taken by camel back to a nearby camp area where a fire will be arranged for you. Be given a demonstration session on how to make Arabic coffee/tea, whilst you relax in the night sitting by the campfire, enjoying the silence of the desert and the dark sky above. Your desert guide will add to the fun with interesting desert stories, and when it’s time to sleep, return to the camp. Retire back to your tent for a comfortable sleep atop a Nawar bed (Bedouin-style bed), complete with a pillow and blanket.
The following morning, wake up 15 minutes before sunrise to witness that spectacular view. Your guide will take you to the desert with a camel caravan that is waiting outside the camp. Go camel trekking for about 15-20 minutes, capturing the nice view of the sunrise over the sand dunes. After camel trekking, return to your tent before eating a freshly cooked Arabian breakfast. Later, be driven back to Dubai and dropped off at your accommodation.
