Off the beaten track

A desert safari is a must-do experience on the itinerary of every Dubai visitor. Choose from a bevy of reputed companies that offer a safari. Once you are picked up from your home, the driver will stop at a designated post to deflate the vehicle’s tyres. After an exciting bout of dune bashing, you will be taken to the camp where you are welcomed with soft drinks and snacks. Apart from leisure pursuits such as a ride on the buggy or camel, you could attempt henna painting or sample the sheesha served. Soak in picturesque views of the sunset, get ready to be enthralled by a professional belly dancer. After a sumptuous dinner, your driver will drop you back home safe.
