// what to expect

Got a few hours between flights or a full trip in Abu Dhabi? Take advantage of it and make the most of your time with a desert safari designed for travelers on a tight schedule. Get whisked straight from the airport, cruise terminal, or hotel of your own choice or one provided by your Airline. Start with dune bashing, photos in the desert, falcon interaction, sandboarding, and camel rides. Hop on a quad bike or dune buggy for more thrill (extra cost). Choose to visit a Bedouin-style camp where you can indulge in henna painting, shisha, an international BBQ buffet with a variety of dishes, drinks, and vegetarian options available, and see iconic live shows like Belly Dance, Tanoura Dance, and a Fire Show. Opt for a budget-friendly shared car or go private for a more relaxed, personalized experience ideal for families or older guests. Slow-track or skipping dune bashing is possible with the private car. Witness how our tour can completely redefine your travel experience.
