Good to know
- Dune bashing is bumpy. Tell us when you book if anyone is pregnant or has back, neck or heart problems, and we'll plan the trip around them.
- Wear light, loose clothes and closed shoes. Bring sunglasses, and a light layer for winter evenings.
- If a sandstorm, heavy rain or a government weather warning stops the trip, you can move it to another day or get a full refund.
- Refunds go back to your card within 5 to 10 working days. See the cancellation policy.
Questions
Which desert safari should I book?
Pick the private evening safari to have the Land Cruiser to yourselves, the kids-friendly safari if you're bringing babies or young children, the candlelight dinner for a couple's evening, or the morning safari to avoid the afternoon heat.
Will we share the car with other people?
No. Every tour is private: your own vehicle and driver or guide, for your group only.
Can we bring a baby or toddler?
Yes. Ask for a baby seat or booster when you book, and tell us your children's ages so the driver can keep the dune bashing gentle.
Where do you pick up from?
Any hotel, hotel apartment or cruise terminal in Dubai.
Can we add a quad bike or dune buggy?
Yes, on most trips, as a paid extra. Ask in the chat on this page for the price before you book.
When do I pay?
When you book. You pay the full price online by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, and your confirmation arrives by email straight away. Cancel up to 48 hours before for a full refund.
