More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The sun slides low behind a ridge of red sand and the desert exhales a dry, warm breath — this is the Lahbab Red Dunes at dusk. You’ll meet your guide at pickup in an air‑conditioned 4×4, then cross the city’s edge until asphalt gives way to open sand. The dunes rise like living shapes, daring you to climb, slide, or race across them.
