Edeltraud Christine – Italy

We had a wonderful afternoon with Bishi, he was a very friendly and open guide and told us a lot of useful tips. We had a great time riding the quads and also in the tent. Dinner was delicious plus the activities were a blast. Thank you Bishi, wishing you the best! Christine & Alex

Full description

Your adventure begins with a convenient hotel pickup from Dubai, Sharjah, or Ajman. After meeting your expert safari guide, you'll embark on an exciting desert journey. Relax in the comfort of your 4x4 vehicle as you drive for 45-50 minutes, leaving the city’s skyscrapers behind and heading towards the iconic Lahbab Desert, famous for its stunning Red Dunes.

Upon arrival, you’ll stop at our meeting point for a safety briefing from an experienced off-road instructor. You’ll receive instructions on operating either a Yamaha 350cc quad bike (or equivalent) or a Polaris RZR 1000cc ATV, depending on your selected tour option.

After the safety briefing and receiving your headgear, you’ll embark on a 1-hour ride in your chosen vehicle and led by an off-road instructor. Feel the thrill as you navigate the stunning red sands, with expert guidance ensuring an unforgettable journey through this breathtaking landscape. Choose from four distinct options:

• Classic Desert Adventure: Embark on a shared adventure with a 1-hour quad bike ride (single/double seater) in small groups, guided by our off-road instructor. Ideal for those seeking a lively, shared desert experience.
• Exclusive Desert Adventure: Enjoy a private transfer and a 1-hour quad biking ride (single/double seater) with your personal off-road instructor, offering a more personalized and exclusive experience.

• Extreme Group Desert Adventure: Start your tour with a private transfer and embark on an exciting 1-hour Polaris RZR ATV ride (two- or four-seater), where you and your group take turns driving, all while being guided by our off-road instructor. Ideal for families or friends wanting to share an ATV experience together.

• Ultimate Desert Adventure: For the ultimate adventure, each participant drives their own Polaris RZR ATV for 1 hour with a personal off-road instructor. Enjoy private 4x4 transfer for total convenience and exclusivity.

For an added adventure, try sandboarding! Glide down the smooth, golden dunes and enjoy this beginner-friendly activity—no experience necessary. Just hop on your board and feel the rush as you slide down the dunes.

After your guided quad/ ATV ride, head to a traditional Bedouin-style camp nestled in the heart of the desert. Here, you'll be welcomed with refreshing Gahwa (Arabic coffee), locally sourced dates, and Luqaimat (traditional Emirati sweets). Enjoy a range of authentic desert experiences, such as:
• Camel Ride
• Shisha
• Henna Tattoos
• Falcon Experience

As evening settles in, enjoy a delicious BBQ buffet dinner featuring a variety of grilled kebabs, fresh salads, hummus, and vegetarian dishes. Soft drinks will be provided throughout your meal. While dining, enjoy a series of captivating live performances, including:
• Belly Dance Show

After an unforgettable evening of desert activities, entertainment, and delicious food, your guide will drive you back to your hotel.
