Evening Heritage Safari: Vintage G-Class Ride with Dinner at Al Marmoom Camp

About this experience

About Evening Heritage Safari: Vintage G-Class Ride with Dinner at Al Marmoom Camp The Evening Heritage Safari is a six-hour desert excursion departing from Dubai that combines a vintage off-road drive, Bedouin cultural activities, and a traditional Emirati dinner at Al Marmoom Camp. The experience centres on a 30 to 40 minute open-air ride across the dunes in a 1980s Vintage G-Class Mercedes, one of the more distinctive ways to cross the Al Marmoom Oasis landscape, roughly 50 minutes from the city. The itinerary is structured around the desert evening, from the late afternoon dune drive and sunset photo stop through to a six-course Emirati meal under the stars. Hotel pickup and drop-off are included, making the logistics straightforward for visitors staying anywhere in central Dubai. What to expect On arrival at the Bedouin village, guests are welcomed with Arabic coffee, tea, and Luqaimat, the traditional Emirati fried sweets. A camel caravan ride of 10 to 12 minutes runs twice, and a live Arabic coffee-making station explains the preparation of the aromatic brew. As the sun sets, the camp hosts Tanoura, fire, and nashaat shows before dinner is served. Stargazing with a telescope rounds out the evening once the camp lights are dimmed. Tickets cover the vintage G-Class dune ride, camel ride, henna tattoo, photos with a falcon, an optional Arabian makeover with Kandura or Abaya costume, all shows, and the full six-course dinner with non-alcoholic beverages. The experience is not suitable for wheelchair users. Dubai Desert Safari and getting there The Dubai Desert Safari sits within the Al Marmoom Desert Conservation Reserve, the largest unfenced desert reserve in the UAE, approximately 50 minutes by road from central Dubai. Return hotel transfers are included, so no independent transport is required. For other ways to spend time in the emirate, the Dubai attractions page lists a broad range of options across the city.
