Frequently asked questions
What is included in a Dubai desert safari?
It depends on the option you choose, and each tour page lists exactly what is included. Our safaris typically include 4x4 dune bashing, sandboarding, a camel ride, and hotel pickup and drop-off on the shared and private transfer options. The camp options add a BBQ dinner and live shows such as belly dance and Tanoura. Alcoholic drinks, souvenir photos and tips are not included.
How long does a desert safari take?
Our shared morning or evening safaris take about 4 hours. The options with the desert camp and BBQ dinner take about 7 hours. Quad bike and buggy rides where you meet us at the start are shorter, around 1 to 2 hours. The booking page shows the duration of each option.
Is hotel pickup included?
Yes, on the shared and private transfer options, from hotels, apartments and residences within Dubai. If you are staying at Al Maha Resort, Bab Al Shams, Jebel Ali Resorts, Expo Village hotels, Al Maktoum area hotels, Jebel Ali Palm hotels or Dubai Parks hotels, please choose the private transfer. Pickup is not available from the Hatta area. Your pickup time is confirmed in your booking email, and you should be ready 10 minutes before it.
Which desert safari is best for first-timers?
An evening desert safari is an easy first choice: camel riding, a live show and an optional BBQ dinner at the camp. If you want more adrenaline, add a quad bike or dune buggy ride. Each tour page lists exactly what is included.
Can I cancel or reschedule my booking?
Cancel 24 hours or more before departure for a full refund. Cancellations within 24 hours and no-shows are not refundable. To cancel or reschedule, message us on WhatsApp at +971 50 566 2037 or email us as early as you can. Refunds go back to your original payment method within 5 to 10 business days. If we have to cancel because of weather or safety, you get a full refund or another date.
How can I pay?
Online by debit or credit card (including Apple Pay and Google Pay) or PayPal. Cash on arrival is available on selected tours only. Prices are in UAE dirhams (AED) and include all applicable taxes.
What should I wear for a desert safari?
Comfortable, loose clothing and closed-toe shoes. Light colours are best in summer. Bring a light jacket for evening tours, as the desert cools down after sunset.
Is a desert safari suitable for children?
Most of our tours are family-friendly, and children must be with an adult. Child and infant prices are shown on each booking page. Some activities, such as quad biking and dune bashing, have age or height limits, so check the tour details. Pregnant guests and guests with back, heart or other serious medical conditions may not be able to join some activities.
What is the difference between shared and private transfer?
Shared transfer means you travel in a vehicle with other guests, which is the most affordable option. Private transfer gives your group its own vehicle for pickup and drop-off. The price for private transfer depends on your group size and is shown when you pick a date.
Can I book a desert safari for today or tomorrow?
Often yes. Pick a date on the tour page to see live availability. Some options need to be booked up to 24 hours ahead, and the booking page shows the cut-off for each one. You can also message us on WhatsApp at +971 50 566 2037.
