Detailed itinerary

Enjoy hassle-free pick-up and drop-off from Dubai, whether you’re staying at a hotel, in a residential area, or arriving via airport or cruise terminal. Your friendly safari driver will meet you in a comfortable 4x4 (Land Cruiser or similar) and drive you out of the city towards the famous Lahbab Red Dunes Desert. As the skyline fades, the road turns into open desert, where you’ll begin an exciting 35–40 minutes of dune bashing, climbing and sliding over the high red dunes before your sunset stop.

At the Lahbab Red Dunes Desert, your experience begins with arrival at the buggy station, where you’ll have a short break before the main adventure. Here you can refresh with bottled water, use the washrooms, and get a quick safety briefing from your guide. You’ll also enjoy a short camel ride for classic desert photos and a photo opportunity with a falcon, creating iconic Arabian memories before heading deeper into the dunes.

Once everyone is ready, your licensed safari driver takes you into the heart of the Red Dunes of Lahbab for about 30–35 minutes of thrilling dune bashing in a 4x4. The vehicle climbs and descends the soft, high dunes, giving you an exciting yet safe off-road experience. You’ll stop on a panoramic dune for a sunset photo stop, where you can also try sandboarding down the slopes. After enjoying the views and photos in the golden light, you’ll continue your journey on to the Premium Desert Camp to start the evening program, dinner, and live shows.

At the Premium Desert Camp, your evening continues with a warm traditional Arabic welcome, including tea, coffee, sweets, and fresh fruits as you settle into a comfortable seating area with tables and chairs around the main stage. You can relax and soak in the desert atmosphere while enjoying unlimited water, soft drinks, tea, and coffee throughout the night.

Around the camp, you’ll find different activity corners where you can get a beautiful henna design, try on traditional Arabic dress for photos, and capture more memories with your friends and family. Later, an international buffet dinner with live BBQ is served, offering both vegetarian and non-vegetarian options. As you dine, the stage comes alive with five live shows: a graceful belly dance, colorful Tanoura dance, thrilling fire show, energetic Khaleeji dance, and lively Dabka dance, creating a full Arabian night experience under the desert sky.
