Dubai Morning Desert Safari: Camel Rides & Sandboarding

About this experience

This morning desert safari is a four-hour guided excursion into the Arabian desert north of Dubai, combining dune bashing, a traditional camp visit, camel riding, and sandboarding in a single departure. The trip begins with hotel pickup before heading out to the open desert, where the vehicle tyres are deflated ahead of a driven traverse across the rolling sand dunes, with several stops for photographs along the route. The landscape is characterised by wide, undulating dunes with unobstructed views across the terrain, a contrast to the Dubai city skyline left behind at departure. On arrival at the Arabian desert camp, guests are welcomed with gahwa, the traditional Arabic coffee, served alongside local dates. From there, the activities programme includes a camel ride, a visit to the camel farm, and sandboarding down the dune faces. A live guide accompanies the group throughout. Tickets cover hotel pickup and drop-off, all listed desert activities, dune bashing, sandboarding, the camel ride and farm visit, and non-alcoholic beverages. The safari runs for approximately four hours in the morning. Wheelchair access is not available on this excursion. Cancellation is accepted before the scheduled timeslot.
