Experience a 6-hour evening desert safari from Abu Dhabi with 4x4 dune bashing, sunset views, a Bedouin-style camp with BBQ, tanoura and belly dance, camel rides and falcon photo ops.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The sun slides low and the sand changes color—gold to copper to a flat pink—while a Land Cruiser powers up the nearest dune and skids sideways in a practiced drift. You feel the vehicle tilt, the engine pulse, and then the world opens: a wide, empty arena of wind-swept ridges and rippled sand. This six-hour evening safari is built around that moment—dune driving, a sunset stop, and an Arabian camp under the stars.

Wear closed-toe shoes
Sand heats quickly and can get into sandals; closed shoes protect against hot surfaces and give traction for short walks on dunes.
Bring motion-sickness remedies
Dune bashing is thrilling but jerky—if you get car-sick, take medication or ginger before the ride.
Carry sun protection and water
Evening trips cool, but UV and reflected sand can still cause sunburn—sunscreen, sunglasses and a reusable water bottle are recommended.
Dress respectfully for the camp
Light, modest clothing works best; a scarf is useful for evening chill and photo sessions with traditional costumes.
Reusable water bottle
Staying hydrated in desert air prevents headache and fatigue during the evening program.
