The Start-up:

Your experience starts with our 4 X 4 coming to your doorstep to pick you up and take you to the dune bashing, our first activity. While coming to the "meeting point," you would pass through modern Dubai and its incredible architecture. Our driver would provide you with nuggets of information for a keepsake! The Meeting Point is where all our 4 X 4 assemble and prepare their vehicles for the dune onslaught. This is when you can get out of the vehicle, stroll around the desert, take selfies, etc. Once the vehicles are ready, you will be ushered back into it for the RIDE.

The Thrill of Dune Bashing:

The adventure begins when you step into the 4x4 vehicle that will take you on a thrilling ride across the desert dunes. Dune bashing is an exhilarating activity that provides an adrenaline rush like no other. Skilled drivers expertly navigate the undulating sands, sending the vehicle soaring up and down the dunes, creating a heart-pounding yet safe experience. The breathtaking views atop the dunes are nothing short of mesmerizing, offering a unique perspective of the desert's ever-changing landscape.

Sunset Magic:

As the sun starts its descent, casting hues of orange and pink across the desert sky, you'll have the opportunity to witness one of the most magical sunsets you've ever seen.

Culinary Delights:

The desert safari experience is also a treat for your taste buds. The camp offers a sumptuous buffet of both international and local cuisine, allowing you to savor the flavors of Arabia.
