Evening Desert Safari

Dubai is surrounded by some of the most beautiful deserts, which people love to visit and spend time with their loved ones and friends on vacations. The best way to explore these deserts and enjoy the scenery and local culture is to go on Evening Desert Safari tours.

These safari tours are organized to offer the visitors the rich culture and authentic Bedouin experience of the locals. Here, they can witness magical dance performances, cultural shows/activities and, more importantly, enjoy a delicious BBQ dinner that includes many tasty local dishes.

If you plan to go on a Dubai evening safari tour, here is a detailed guide about the cultural activities to expect here that will make your experience even more memorable and exciting.

Cultural Activities to Enjoy on Evening Desert Safari

Here are the cultural activities and experiences to experience on an evening safari tour in Dubai:

Camel Rides

Camels have been an integral part of Arab culture for centuries because they were the main means of transport in the region. The locals have kept this tradition alive, and camels still thrive in the deserts. The visitors can ride these animals around in the deserts and experience what it means to be a Bedouin. These slow and bumpy rides through the beautiful deserts make one feel like they are connected to nature.

No need to worry if someone has never ridden a camel before; there are tour guides available who will come alongside to handle the camels and ensure that the visitor has a comfortable riding experience.

Dance Performances

The main highlight of the evening desert safari is the dance performances that take place at the desert campsites after sunset. These include belly dance, tanoura dance, Yalla dance, and fire shows. Young local artists perform all these dances while wearing colorful clothes inspired by Sufi traditions.

Each of these performances gives an idea of the region’s rich cultural heritage and adds to the memorable experience of a Dubai vacation.

Henna Painting and Falconry Shows

Besides dance shows, there are other cultural activities that visitors can experience. One is henna painting sessions, where an expert artist paints beautiful designs on arms and legs using henna, a reddish dye’ that comes from henna trees. According to local traditions, these designs serve as a souvenir of the safari tour and are also supposed to bring good luck to the individual.

Then, there are falconry shows that demonstrate the art of falconry and how it was used for hunting in old times. Visitors can click some memorable pics of falcons sitting on their shoulders as a reminder of the awesome desert tour they had.

Delicious BBQ Dinner

Lastly, visitors can enjoy a delicious BBQ dinner at the campsite, which includes many authentic local dishes, such as lamb chops, kebabs, rice, hummus, bread, and other international and continental dishes.

There are also vegetarian options for those not interested in eating meat. In the Premium Evening Safari package, the chefs prepare the dinner at live cooking stations, which enhances the overall safari experience and makes it even more exciting.

Tips to Enjoy Evening Desert Safari Tour

Here are some tips you should remember to make the most out of your evening desert safari experience:

  • Book in Advance: Always book your evening safari tour in advance at least 6-7 days before because, during peak season, they sell out very quickly.
  • Stay Hydrated: Drink water at regular intervals during the tour to ensure proper hydration of your body because many driving activities like dune bashing and quad-biking can be physically exhausting, especially when you add desert heat.
  • Wear Proper Clothes: Wear proper clothes that will keep you cool and comfortable in hot weather. Anything made from cotton or linen is best.
