Activity itinerary

The tour is perfect for adventure seekers, families, couples and solo travellers looking for a unique tour combining fun, adventure, nature and culture. Choose from 4-hour tour option which includes 30-40 minutes dune bashing in Lahbab with sand-boarding & camel rides or opt for a longer 7-hour all-inclusive tour option which includes 30-40 minutes dune bashing, sand-boarding, camel rides and additional BBQ buffet dinner and all desert camp activities. Start the tour with pickup from your hotel and then head straight towards Lahbab desert. The ride will take approximately 50 minutes to reach. Upon reaching the desert, wait for 20 minutes for your driver to inflate the vehicle's tyres so they are better suited for driving on the desert dunes. You can also spend this time enjoying an optional quad bike ride while the driver waits for the other 4x4 group convoy to catch up. Then drive across the beautiful red dune desert. Enjoy an adrenaline rush ride as you slide across from one dune to another in the 4x4. Venture deeper into the desert for the best scenic views possible. The dune bashing will take almost 30-40 minutes until we stop for a picture on the highest dune before sunset. Admire beautiful 360 views of the desert landscape as the sun slowly sets down. Try your hands at sand-boarding during the picture-stop. You’ll be able to surf the sand on the never-ending dunes. Guests of all ages are invited to do this activity which does not require any training. Glide and conquer the dunes with sand-boards and experience the wonderful thrills. The 4-hour tour programme ends here after the sunset, and you will be taken back to your hotel. The 7-hour tour programme will continue to the Bedouin style camp hidden in the middle of the desert to enjoy many fun and exciting activities. Arrive at the desert camp and be greeted with Qahwa (Arabic coffee), dates and Lugamat (traditional sweet). Your safari guide will show you all the activities to look for at the camp before being seated at your tables. You can hop on a camel for a short ride, try a Shisha pipe, decorate your hands with paintings by Henna tattoo artists, dress up and take pictures in traditional Arabic costumes and even shop at the souvenir stand for find unique and exotic stuff to buy. As dusk falls enjoy scrumptious barbecue dinner of dishes such as kebabs, hummus and salads accompanied by soft drinks, mineral water and additional drinks from the bar. Enjoy a colourful belly dancing show and Tanura performance, where fast-spinning dancers’ whirl across the stage. There will be Arabian Falcons showcased at the camp as well, so be sure take pictures with them too.
