Evening Desert Safari in Dubai (Arabian Adventures)
1 / 6
Desert Safari - by Management
Description
The Evening Desert Tour from Dubai described here is operated by Arabian Adventures on a shared vehicle basis. There are various other operators at different price points in the city. You will be picked up around 15h00 from your hotel in Dubai in a 4-wheel drive and will experience some dune bashing and hopefully wildlife sighting on the way to the desert camp. In this tour, the sandboarding and camel riding are both included. At the camp you will be treated to a tanoura dancer, a belly dancer and a BBQ buffet with unlimited house wine and beer (except during religious holidays), soft drinks and water. After dinner, you will be dropped off back at your hotel in the city.

Instructions & Recommendations
Make sure to bring sunglasses, a hat/cap and your camera. Carefully read the age and height restrictions for kids: min 6 years AND 135cm (which is actually the average size for 8-9 years old kid). If those criteria are not met, you can book a Private Vehicle and enter details on infants / kids. Finally, please note that if you have heart ailments, neck or back problems, participation is possible but not recommended.
Environmental & Social
Some carbon footprint due to the transport. Socially neutral
Conclusion
The Evening Desert Safari tour in shared vehicle is, in our opinion, a must do activity for tourists - or residents who want to show off the desert to their guests visiting from overseas. Dunes are indeed not ubiquitous on the planet and the experience is a very enjoyable and memorable one.
Key positive
Excellent and knowledgeable driver/guides
Good quality shows, food, and desert camp
Fun driving in the dunes and seeing some wildlife
Key negative
Value is fair but it is not cheap
May feel a bit set-up / artificial for those who enjoy real adventures. Enjoyable nonetheless
Suitability
Not suitable for kids less than 6 years old and 135cm in height (will need to arrange private vehicle). Not recommended for somebody with back or neck problem. For guests with mobility issues the best is to contact the operator directly to ascertain options.
