Private Premium Desert Safari
A private premium desert safari from Dubai, your own 4x4 over the dunes to a quiet camp dinner away from the crowds.
The desert at sunset is one of Dubai's great spectacles, and it is wasted in a packed group camp. Over roughly seven hours, afternoon into evening, this private safari gives you your own 4x4 and driver over the dunes, with stops for photographs as the light turns molten. Dinner waits at a relaxed private camp, set apart from the crowds, where the only soundtrack is the wind and a sky thick with stars. Quietly, this is the desert as it should be met.
