There's a reason why they call Dubai the desert city. Make the most of its serene sandy landscape with a range of fun activities, whether you're looking to raise the adrenaline with quad-biking or relax on a luxury overnight escape. On a Desert Safari trip, you can enjoy the beautiful sunset or sunrise before reaching the campsite where you have the opportunity to do a camel ride, sand boarding and try out a henna design on your hand or foot. After working up an appetite, you can also enjoy a delicious barbecue meal and shisha (the famous Arabic water pipe) while watching a belly dancer perform around the campfire. Sounds exciting, right?

Arabian Desert:

The Arabian Desert is the fourth-largest desert in the world by area. During the summer, the temperature in the desert is around 104℉ or 40℃. There are mountains along its borders, and the highest point in the desert is Mount Al-Nabi Shu'ayb. If you zoom in on a map of the area, you can see that within those ranges lie the Rub’al Khali, the largest continuous expanse of sand in the whole world. It has fascinated travelers and is, of course, the backdrop for the fabulous Arabian nights stories featuring Ali Baba, Aladdin and Sinbad.
