Desert Safari

Arabian Adventures' Sundowner desert safari from Dubai includes a wild offroad 4x4 drive through the dunes of the Dubai Desert Conservation area 30 minutes from the city on the Al Ain road, a visit to a camel farm, and a meal in a remote desert camp, and lasts 5-6 hours roundtrip. Some enjoy it, others find it too touristy.
The Arabian Adventures tour leaves Dubai around 3:30 and takes about 30 minutes to reach the starting point
