Description
A comfortable 4x4 Land Cruiser picks you up from your hotel and drives to the Lahbab Desert. The red dunes quickly come into view against the distant Hajjar Mountains.
Your professional driver leads an adrenaline-filled dune bashing session with steep drops and sharp turns. Following this, enjoy sandboarding with guidance provided—no prior experience required. Then take a short traditional camel ride, offering a quieter moment and excellent photo opportunities.
As the sun sets, the Bedouin camp opens for a generous BBQ buffet, including grilled meats, vegetarian dishes, salads, soft drinks, tea, and coffee. The evening continues with a live Tanoura cultural dance and fire show under the desert sky. Henna painting and Arabic attire are available at the camp to enhance your photos.
