Description
Begin your day with an unforgettable desert adventure as your licensed safari guide picks you up from your hotel in a 4x4 vehicle. Leave the city behind and journey 50 minutes into the heart of Lahbab, Dubai’s remote Red Dunes region, known for its dramatic landscapes and deep reddish sand.
At the desert entry point, take a short break before setting off on a thrilling 45-minute dune bashing ride across the rolling Red Dunes. Feel the adrenaline as your guide navigates the high slopes and steep descents in a powerful 4x4, with safety always a priority. Stop at the tallest dunes for panoramic photos, then try sandboarding—a fun and safe activity for all ages. You’ll also enjoy a short camel ride, offering a brief connection to traditional Bedouin culture.
After the desert experience, your tour transitions from dunes to coastline as you head to Dubai Marina. Board a luxury shared yacht and cruise along Dubai’s world-famous skyline. Choose between a one-hour scenic cruise with soft drinks or a two-hour premium yacht experience with a live BBQ lunch, dinner, or sunset brunch, depending on your selected option. As you sail, take in views of Ain Dubai, JBR, Bluewaters Island, Sheikh’s Island, Palm Jumeirah, and the iconic Burj Al Arab.
Conclude your day with a relaxing ride back to your hotel, having experienced two of Dubai’s most iconic landscapes in one seamless and memorable journey.
