The sun slides low over red sand and the dunes begin to breathe—an ocean of wind-sculpted ridges that push and pull beneath the vehicle as evening approaches. Guests are ferried from Dubai out into the desert where dune bashing, a short camel ride and sandboarding break the stillness, then a VIP lounge under open sky holds a seven-course meal and live performances.

Hydrate before you go
Drink water before departure and bring a reusable bottle—the desert dehydrates faster than city heat suggests.
Choose closed-toe shoes

Secure loose items during dune bashing
