What to expect

Enjoy an off-road adventure with a private driver and a BBQ meal and enjoy local traditions. Pick-up and drop-off at your hotel in Dubai are included.

Start with a thrilling 30-45 minute dune bashing ride until you arrive at Al Khayma Desert camp, where Arabic coffee, sweets (Gawa, Gaymat), and dates await you. Once you've rested, your driver will take you on a tour of the desert and you will be able to try sandboarding, quad bike, dune buggy, or camel ride. During the sunset, get the chance to take amazing pictures.

Once it's almost dinner time, go back to the camp where you'll get the chance to have an Arabian makeover and be dressed in a typical Arabian costume (Kandura for men, Abaya for women). If you'd like you can also take pictures with a falcon in the traditional costume. If you prefer, you can sit back, and puff the Shisha, or get a henna tattoo while you wait for the meat to roast. Finally, once your BBQ meal is ready, enjoy this feast and a live show with traditional tunes, Ladies Khaliji Dance, and a flaming fire display. Finally, once the tour is over, you will be dropped off back at your hotel.
