Swap Dubai’s skyline for iron-red dunes, dune bashing, quad biking and a 5-star BBQ under desert stars. This evening safari combines adrenaline and cultural entertainment with hotel pickup and a sunset photo stop.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The sun slides low over a sea of iron-tinted sand and the 4x4’s engine hums through a corridor of ripples—each crest daring you to lean into the slope. In the Red Dunes east of Dubai, a guided evening safari stitches high-adrenaline dune bashing and quad riding to a more measured desert ritual: a sunset stop, a camel ride, then a lantern-lit 5-star BBQ at Al Royal Camp.

Hydrate before you leave
Desert air and adrenaline deplete fluids fast; drink water before pickup and carry a small bottle for the drive.
Sun protection is non-negotiable
Sunscreen, a hat and sunglasses are vital during transfer and photo stops—evening UV can still be strong.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sand heats and quads kick up grit; sturdy, breathable shoes protect feet during activities and the camp walk.

Dune bashing and quad riding jolt the spine—avoid if pregnant or if you have serious heart/back conditions and follow guide instructions.
