Highlights of the Morning Desert Safari Dubai Tour
Here’s what you can expect to experience on your morning desert safari:
Dune Bashing Ride
Your adventure begins with a thrilling dune bashing ride! You’ll be driven over the tall, sandy dunes in a 4×4 Landcruiser at high speed. Hold on tight and enjoy the ride as you go up and down the bumpy terrain with an experienced driver. Don’t forget to buckle up and keep your camera ready to capture all the exciting moments.
Delicious Arabian Breakfast

After the thrilling ride, it’s time to enjoy a delicious Arabic breakfast at the campsite. You’ll get to taste traditional dishes that will fill you up and give you the energy you need for the rest of the fun activities ahead. It’s a great way to relax and prepare for the next part of the adventure.
Sunrise Views
One of the most beautiful parts of the morning safari is watching the stunning sunrise in the desert. The calm desert landscape makes for an amazing backdrop as the sun rises. Ask your guide for the best spot to enjoy the view, and make sure to take some photos to remember the moment. Some tour companies even offer professional sunrise photography if you want special photos.
Camel Riding
Camel riding is a fun and cultural experience you won’t want to miss. Camels have been an important part of desert life for centuries, used for travel and trade. Riding a camel takes you back in time, giving you a glimpse of how the locals used to travel across the desert. The ride is slower and bumpier compared to the dune bashing, but it’s still a relaxing and enjoyable experience.
Sandboarding
For some extra adventure, try sandboarding! It’s similar to snowboarding but on the soft desert sands. You’ll ride a wooden board down a tall dune, trying to keep your balance as you slide. It’s a lot of fun and safe for both adults and children. Dubai Sandboarding Safari is one of the most popular activities during the desert safari, so make sure to give it a try.
Quad Biking
If you’re still craving more adventure, quad biking is the perfect choice! Hop on a quad bike, designed for the desert terrain, and explore the sand dunes on your own. It’s easy to ride with just a little guidance, and you can zoom around the desert at your own pace. Just be sure to follow the safety instructions before heading out on the bike.
Learn About Local Culture
The desert safari is also a great chance to learn about the rich local culture. You’ll get to interact with the locals and hear stories about how they lived in the desert before the discovery of oil. It’s a unique opportunity to gain insight into the traditions, daily routines, and lifestyle of the people who have called the desert home for centuries.
Conclusion
Morning desert safari tours are ideal for off-roading trips you can plan with your family and friends. They offer a change of scenery from what we see in the city and also help to relax your body. We hope you understand everything regarding these tours in this brief guide of ours.
