This tour takes you to the desert of Dubai, driving across beautiful oceans of towering sand dunes arriving at the local camel farm. From the high dunes, witness the sunset as the sun sheds its blaze over enormous areas covered with sand. Mesmerized by the magnificent view, pioneer into an enchanting Arabian night. After a challenging ride across the desert, arrive at a traditional Arabic camp, where a BBQ dinner is served in a torch-lit ambiance giving for the bewitching belly dancer, who performs to the rhythm of the captivating Arabic music under a galaxy of stars. As you relax on comfortable cushions in “Bedu” tents and quench your thirst, you have your hands painted with intricate henna designs. You may also experience a short camel ride or just enjoy an aromatic shisha, whilst being out under the sky. If you do not want to take part in the dune bashing you can inform your driver the day of the tour and you will proceed to the camp and see the sunset from a hill next to the camp.

- 635tusharj0 contributionsExcellent 👍Excellent experience with Authentic Arabic food and awesome Arabic performances ❤️ The staff was very polite 👌 Special mention of Anto who was very helpful and went above and beyond to make us comfortable and explain us more about the performances 😍Written 15 December 2024
- A3017XOstephenh0 contributionsShabir the superstarWe come to Dubai every year and this is one thing we have never done before, we booked with the Tui rep in our hotel at a sensible price and wow, the driver messaged us with an exact collection time he arrived and was amazing from the second we met his name Shabir he is friendly and hilarious, one of those people in the perfect job, super skilled in the crazy desert dune bashing all the time making us laugh, he then explained about local sights and animals we got to see camel racing track, traditional dancing lovely food a perfect afternoon and evening, just beware of the add ons such as the head scarf which looked free but were expensive once on your head Top tip ask for Shabir he is a starWritten 12 October 2024
- BarryC6790 contributionsAbove and BeyondWhat can I say. We were picked up promptly at our hotel. Mohammad our guide and Amir our driver couldn’t do enough for us. Including helping lift my wife’s disability scooter on and off the minibus. Mohammad was extremely knowledgeable and funny and friendly. You can tell he loves his job and wants you to get the most from the tour We started at the frame and had an hour to look round and go to the top. This was included in the tour price. We visited the marina, had a boat trip across the creek to Dubai gold souk, jumeira hotel for photos and also the Palm and the Atlantis hotel. Lots of opportunities for pictures as we went along with our guide giving us so much information on Dubai and pointing out various landmarks Would highly recommended Travco and this tourWritten 13 June 2024
- kereemb0 contributionsNight show!Amazing experience, amazing food by Chef Kamil, and amazing shisha by Mr. Sabri!! Ask for rhe fruit mix! The best in the UAE!Written 12 May 2024
- PaverPete0 contributionsFantastic experience with a friendly driver 👍We went on a desert safari trip, collected from the hotel @ 3.30 driven to see some camel 🐪 racing, then driven to the national park. The driver lowered the tyre pressures for extra grip, then we set off like a rocket 🚀 We drove around with various stops for around 30 minutes, we were drifting and side slipping the dunes, the driver seemed to know where he was going, we were flying over blind crests and sliding down the other side. We then went to a camp with camel riding, sand surfing and BBQ, there was a belly dancer plus a guy dancing. Nice food, they then take you back to the hotel. Wow is all I can say, what a great time we had. Well worth the money, 110% recommended this trip.Written 8 February 2024
- cctdicky0 contributionsNice dinner and showNice dinner and show, love it, we have dinner from 7 to 10pm, belly dance is my favourite one, thanks for the staff - sabri and subashWritten 14 January 2024

- Viajens100 contributionsAl Hadeerah Restaurant at Bab Al Shams Desert ResortI went there with my husband July 13th 2023. Our expectations were not so high due to the low season, we were not expecting a 3hour show. Well we were completely wrong, they measured no efforts to make it expetacular, variaty of food was enourmous and delicious. Subash and Khaled did everything they could to make us confortable. They even brought us a fan due to the heat. The show was amazing a variety of shows that show us about their culture and traditions. A must if you are a tourist in Dubai. We went driving , the road is very well sinalized, safe and had connetion all the way to the restaurant.Written 18 July 2023
- Bigdaddy31060 contributionsAirport TransfersOur travel agent arranged for Travco to do our transfers to/from Dubai Airport to Dubai Marina. Meeting at the airport was easy enough and our driver was prompt, efficient and using a very nice vehicle. Our pick up from the hotel yesterday was a different proposition. Whilst we were collected promptly, the air conditioning in the rear of the car was virtually ineffective and the driver was impatient, too fast and too close to other vehiclesWritten 27 June 2023
- Tora N0 contributionsFantastic experience, great funWe enjoyed the Dune Dinner Safari with Capital Experience. Vimal was our driver and wonderful host. We were picked up from our hotel and driven to the sand dunes for dune bashing. What a fun experience! We felt confident in Vimal's safe hands while we sped up and down the dunes. We stopped off for a couple of photo opportunities and visited a camel farm. At the camp we had a plentiful dinner and drinks, watched belly dancing and a spinning man dance. We had henna on our hands and a ride on a camel. We didn't take advantage of the sand boarding but others did. All in all a great excursion.Written 31 May 2023
- Mihoppuchi0 contributionsHard to believe it's in the desert.We enjoyed the gorgeous food and the stunning show. The variety and quality of the food, the concern of the staff, everything was to our satisfaction. Especially thanks to Subash and another staff who took care of our table.Written 25 March 2023

¡Excursión al desierto increíble!
Nos recogieron en el hotel y empezamos nuestra excursión. El conductor súper amable nos iba contando la historia de la ciudad. Paramos en un hipódromo pero de camellos (aunque no había carrera).
Cunado llegamos al desierto nuestro conductor se puso a hacer un rally por las dunas (súper divertido), paramos un buen rato para hacer fotos, vimos el atardecer y posteriormente nos llevaron al campamento para cenar bbq. Nos proporcionaron bebidas gratis y disfrutamos de los 2 espectáculos que tuvimos.
Una noche inolvidable, recomiendo 100% hacer esta excursión.
