Start your morning experience with a pickup from your Abu Dhabi hotel. Meet your driver, who doubles as your guide, and hop inside your comfortable, air-conditioned vehicle for your journey into the desert around the city.
As you travel, watch Dubai's futuristic skyscrapers melt into the desert landscape, and hear about the morning’s itinerary from your driver. Then, arrive at a Bedouin-style camp complete with tents, cushions and carpets, and set off on your 4x4 adventure. Feel your adrenalin race as your expert driver takes you on an exhilarating dune bash, climbing up the slopes, pausing, and then sliding down the ever-shifting sands. Thrill as the wheels slip and skid, and then return to the camp to refuel with some complimentary refreshments such as water and soda.
Feeling refreshed, try out some other desert activities — both traditional and modern. Climb aboard a camel and feel like a true Bedouin as you ride over the sands. Absorb the views from your elevated perch and master the camel’s rolling gait with help from your guide.
Try your hand at sandboarding, one of the desert’s most popular sports. Grab one of the supplied sandboards, and after a safety briefing, surf your way down the dunes. After enjoying the three activities, travel back to your Abu Dhabi hotel, where your experience ends with a hotel drop-off.
