Looking for a desert experience that blends adrenaline, culture, and unforgettable memories? Our Evening Desert Safari is a must-do activity for anyone visiting Dubai or the UAE. Whether you’re traveling solo, as a couple, or with friends and family, this is one experience that will stay with you long after your trip.
Why Choose the Evening Desert Safari?
The Evening Desert Safari begins in the afternoon, with a 4×4 Land Cruiser picking you up from your location between 3:00 PM and 3:30 PM. As you head into the sweeping sand dunes of Al Awir Road, get ready for an exciting 20–30 minutes of dune bashing—an off-road adventure powered by our expert drivers and top-of-the-line vehicles.
Along the way, you’ll enjoy several photo stops, including a magical sunset viewpoint that captures the golden beauty of the desert skies.

Your Safety is Our Priority
Our vehicles are equipped with roll cages and seat belts, and all passengers are covered by insurance. Our drivers are licensed, trained in first aid, and highly experienced in navigating desert terrain. Child safety seats are available upon request.
