  • Little kids can’t participate in dune bashing, but private tours are suitable with a parent.
  • Pregnant ladies, kids under 3, and people with heart or back conditions can’t join the tour because of UAE laws.

Who Is This Desert Safari For?

Our Desert Safari Dubai tour is suitable for:

  • Families with kids – short camel rides, soft dune bashing (on request), safe camp area.
  • Couples – romantic evening on the dunes, sunset photos, VIP seating options.
  • Friends & office groups – fun group activity with plenty of photos and shared moments.

Health & Safety Notes

  • Not recommended for:
    • Pregnant women
    • Guests with serious back, neck, or heart problems

What to Wear & Desert Safari Tips

Not sure what to wear for a Dubai evening safari? Follow these simple tips:

  • Clothing: Light, comfortable clothes. T-shirts and trousers or long shorts work best.
  • Shoes: Closed shoes or sports shoes are better on the sand than high heels.
  • Weather:
    • Winter evenings (Nov–Feb) can be cool – bring a light jacket.
    • Summer (Jun–Aug) is hot – drink plenty of water and use sun protection.
  • Accessories:
    • Sunglasses
    • Sunblock
    • Scarf or shawl for sand and wind
  • For photos: Choose colours that contrast with the orange-red sand (white, blue, black, bright colours).
  • Avoid heavy bags. You can leave big luggage in the hotel and only carry small items during your desert dubai tour.
