Tour Overview

Unleash the ultimate desert beast! The Morning Desert Safari with Dune Buggy gives you the driver’s seat of a high-performance 1000cc Polaris RZR or Can-Am Maverick buggy equipped with full roll cages, four-point safety harnesses, and long-travel suspension.

High-Horsepower Desert Convoys

After pickup in an air-conditioned 4x4 Land Cruiser, arrive at our desert buggy station. Your professional off-road guide will walk you through controls and safety protocols before you set off into the deep dunes. Follow the lead guide as you climb towering red ridges, conquer sand bowls, and experience unparalleled off-road agility.

Choose between a 2-seater buggy (perfect for couples and pairs) or a 4-seater buggy (ideal for families and friends). Your morning also includes 4x4 red dune bashing, sandboarding down slopes, a scenic camel ride, and traditional Arabic hospitality with Gahwa and dates.

"Solid safari experience. Dune bashing was intense, but driver David checked on us regularly to make sure we weren't feeling motion sick. The sandboarding was fun but tiring, and the camp refreshments were excellent."

"Our family had an amazing desert safari. Chloe was our guide and went out of his way to help my elderly mother feel comfortable during the transit. The camel ride was a bit short, but the sunset photography and sandboarding made up for it. Excellent service!"

"The dune buggy portion of the tour was brilliant. Instructor Arjun was very reassuring and monitored us closely since it was our first time. The camel farm stop was brief, but we loved the overall premium treatment."

"Great camp organization. Host Zaid helped us upgrade to a VIP table table near the stage, which gave us the best view of the belly dancing and fire shows. The food variety was fantastic, and drinks were served continuously."

"Highly recommended safari. The camel ride line was a bit long, but coordinator Kareem arranged an extra turn for our kids so they didn't miss out. The BBQ meats were well-cooked and the Arabic coffee at the entrance was a nice touch."
