Drive over high red dunes, meet camels on a private farm, then settle into a desert camp for BBQ and live entertainment. This evening safari mixes adrenaline—extreme dune bashing and sandboarding—with cultural touches like henna and Arabic coffee.

The sun slides low and the dunes flare red—wheels bite, sand sprays, and the caravan of 4x4s folds into silence at the crest. That first stop, the desert yawning in every direction, is the promise of the evening: raw sand, sharp light, and a camp lit by lanterns where music and smoke from the grill lift into the wide sky.

Sun protection is mandatory
Bring sunscreen, a wide-brim hat, and UV sunglasses—sun reflects strongly off sand even late in the afternoon.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sandboarding and walking on hot or abrasive dunes are easier and safer in sturdy closed-toe shoes.
Hydrate before and after
Carry a water bottle and drink regularly; operators provide bottled water but desert conditions dehydrate quickly.
Know medical restrictions
Dune bashing involves sudden movements—avoid if pregnant or if you have back, neck or serious heart conditions.
