Itinerary
Start your journey towards Lahbab desert with the assistance of our guide. Once you reach the desert, take a break of 25 minutes for the refreshments and to avail bathroom facilities. By the time, you can go for an optional quad bike ride while the safari guide would prepare the vehicle by adjusting the tire pressure for smooth off-roading. Afterwards, enjoy an exhilarating dune bashing session for about 30-45 minutes. Then try out sandboarding, which makes you glide over the sand dunes.
Now, move on to the traditional desert camp, where you will be welcomed with authentic Qahwa (Arabic coffee), Gaymat (sweets) and dates. Give a try for Henna painting, smoke a Shisha pipe and go for a short Camel Ride to explore the vast desert. Never miss to caress the falcon feathers while posing for photographs. Later, enjoy a delicious BBQ dinner and watch the Tanoura and Ladies Khaliji Dance on stage. The guide will drop you off to the hotel /selected location after the camp activities. As Arabs saying “ Maa Al Salama”

Such a fun day! Ziad was an amazing guide he was super helpful and friendly and took great pictures.
Excellent safari. Very organized. Our guide was Maz and he was very friendly and helpful. He explained all the landmarks, took photos and drove amazingly in the dunes
What an incredible experience I had! Siddik - our safari captain - has showed us that the red dunes of the Dubai Desert can be conquered not only by 4x4 riding, but also by quad biking, sandboarding and even riding camels. The Al Khayma desert camp was the best chance to explore Bedouin activities, enjoy a sunset Arabian dinner, welcome sweets, as well as Tanoura and Belly dance shows. Everyone should definitely try to go on a Desert Safari with OceanAir Travels while in Dubai!
Mr. Noor and Mr. Armir Abbas was tralla friendly and good at their work. It was a lot of fun with both of them 😊

Dear Guest, Glad to know that you had a beautiful experience with us.Thank you for your wonderful feedback. Regards Catherine | Private Dubai Tours
Short stay in Dubai as a stopover, looked at options and picked the desert safari; glad we did as both of us had a brilliant time. Paid extra and had a go at the quads at the 1st stop which was fun. Then some dune bashing with screams included from 2 young girls in our jeep. We also had a quick dress up in local clothing at the start for some photos including with the peregrine falcon. Evening finished with the lights being turned off to gaze at the stars before our return to the hotel. Our guide Yasir was brilliant chatting away with local knowledge/information and also taking a lot of photos for us. He was really friendly and nothing was too much trouble when asked. Both of us had a great trip and would highly recommend it, well worth it 👍🐪🏝️

Fantastic experience. We had Yasir as our guide and he was very good. He spent good time and explained the program very well. I strongly recommend trying it out. Currency for money!!!
What a great day it was. Me and my bestfriend who is visiting Dubai had so much fun. The package is so worth it. So many exciting activities. It will really exceed your expectation. I like the overall service. Foods, shows etc. Most of all i wanna commend our driver/tour guide - YASIR. He is very accomodating and professional. You will really know that he knows what he is doing. Also, i like his good HUMOR. I think that’s the trait that everyone working in this industry should posses, and Yasir has it. Till next time! I will recommended this tour to my family and friends!
