Overview
This tour departs in the afternoon and takes you across the Arabian Desert with exceptional photo opportunities waiting during an exciting dune drive. You'll enjoy a stop at a camel farm to learn about these ‘Ships of the Desert’ before continuing to the next highlight.
Witness a spectacular sunset upon reaching the traditional Arabian campsite where you will be welcomed with Gahwa (Arabic coffee) and local dates. Experience camel riding, sand boarding and get a henna tattoo before trying the Arabic water-pipe called shisha.
As by that time you could probably use some refuelling, have a quick bite of a Shawarma or a falafil sandwich, before settling in to admire the evening's live entertainment. The Tanoura dance, a mesmerizing traditional folk dance, is followed by an awe-inspiring fire blower show. Take a quick break from the visual extravaganza and satisfy your taste buds with a delicious barbecue dinner thereafter. The evening comes to an end after an enthralling belly dance is performed under the starlit sky.
Your adventure concludes with a ride back to the city, during which you can recap your action-packed day.
