Desert Safari (Airport to Airport) : $558 (total for 1 - 5 Persons)
After you cross Passport Control and Customs, you will be met by our expert Safari Driver, who will take you to experience the thrills of a 4WD Safari. Just 45 minutes from Dubai is Lahbab Desert where you’ll have about 20 minutes to relax before hitting the desert for about 30-45 minutes of dune bashing. Feel your stomach leap as the Land Cruiser drives up and down the tall red dunes. Marvel at how the vehicle tackles impossibly steep inclines and the uneven terrain of the sand. This tour takes you to the desert of Dubai, driving across beautiful oceans of towering sand dunes to arrive at the local camel farm.
After dune bashing, you will have a chance to try sand-boarding or simply admire the scenery around you. Make sure you take plenty of photos of the scenic desert landscape.
The next stop is Al Khayma camp, where you’ll be welcomed with traditional Arabic coffee, sweets, and dates. Then, visit a camel farm to learn about how these animals are a key part of traditional Bedouin culture. After enjoying a short camel ride, leave the desert and return to the Airport.
Note: If time permits, you can enjoy Lunch/Dinner at one of the spectacular places in the city and a cuisine of your choice (at extra cost), before returning to the airport.
