Full description

Complete with a thrilling drive through the dunes, an unforgettable camel ride and a picturesque breakfast stop, our Morning Desert Adventure is a spectacular reason to start your day early in Dubai.

Your experience will begin with pick-up from your hotel or residence in Dubai. You’ll be taken to the staggeringly beautiful Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve (DDCR) in an air-conditioned 4x4 vehicle before enjoying a thrilling drive up, down and across its rolling dunes.

Throughout your morning in the desert, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to spot fascinating native wildlife – with the help of our expert guides.

You’ll then take your place atop a majestic Arabian camel and head off on a memorable trek through the rugged, striking terrain of the DDCR. Led by an expert camel shepherd and keeping to a steady pace, you’ll get a true sample of the local culture as you admire sensational views from your lofty vantage point.

After this, you’ll have the option of an exhilarating sandboarding session. Those seeking an adrenaline rush will receive all the necessary equipment and a comprehensive safety briefing before taking to the sandy slopes. Feel the wind on your face as you sweep your way down colossal dunes in a truly unique experience.

It’ll then be time for your breakfast stop in a stunning location among the dunes, where you can relax, admire gorgeous vistas and snap incredible photographs. You’ll be treated to a delicious breakfast box as well as soft drinks and refreshments, a fitting end to a memorable morning of activities.

A return transfer to your hotel or residence in Dubai is included as part of your Morning Desert Adventure, so you’ll return to the city in an air-conditioned vehicle - still buzzing with excitement from your once-in-a-lifetime desert safari.
