Feel the rush of dune bashing, ride a quad across red sand and watch the sun drop behind endless dunes. This evening safari pairs adrenaline with traditional camp life—BBQ, henna and live shows—near Dubai’s Lehbab dunes.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The sun slants low over the Lahbab red dunes as a convoy of 4x4s carves arcing shadows across wind-scoured ridges. You feel the shift in the sand beneath you—the vehicle pitching into a hollow, then climbing a steep face before cresting and spilling silver light across the valley. Later, a queue of camels rocks gently in rhythm while a baker’s-plate of smoke and spice rises from the BBQ pit.
