“Medo was a fabulous guide!! His humour was greatly appreciated and his knowledge was excellent! The whole afternoon and evening was faultless. From the dune bashing, the camel ride, the falcon handling and evening shows. The dinner was exceptional and staff were all outstanding. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone (young or old) visiting Dubai!!! Thanks for a great adventure Medo!!!!

Field notes

The trick is leaving the city at 3:45pm, not 4. That fifteen minutes is the difference between the dunes going gold and going grey.

Pickup is usually within the 45 minutes before your selected slot, depending on your location. Drop-off depends on the specific tour and traffic on the day — exact times are confirmed with your booking.
Pickups are in a 4×4 SUV. A safari vehicle seats up to 6 guests plus the guide — safaris are shared, so others may join up to that capacity. Larger groups may be split across vehicles (we’ll always check with you first).
Typically dune bashing, camel riding, sandboarding, a Bedouin camp visit and a BBQ dinner, plus cultural performances such as belly dancing and tanoura shows. Check the individual safari page for exact inclusions.
Browse the tours, experiences and tickets on our site, pick the one you want, check availability for your date, and complete the booking through our secure online checkout. You’ll get a confirmation email with your booking and payment details right after.
