The camel is transport for about forty minutes and a photograph for the rest. These 15 put it at the front of a desert evening, and we have noted which ones ride out at dusk rather than in full dark.

1.Dubai Red Dunes ATV, Camels, Stargazing & 5* BBQ Al Khayma Camp

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 21,620 reviews · from $88Our pick

Spend about six hours exploring Lahbab’s red dunes by ATV, sandboard, and camel. Your guide handles the route and photos before you settle into Al Khayma Camp for Arabic coffee, henna, falcon photos, a BBQ buffet, live entertainment, and evening stargazing. Guides such as Dennis, Asif Foji, and Abdul Wahab have earned especially warm praise.

“By far the best tour during my time in Dubai! Transportation was provided from our hotel; the ATV riding was a blast! I like that you have the option to do a less intense course in front of the main building, but I recommend the course with the hills and soft sand- the scenery is remarkable. The camp site that you go to after is amazing; some of the best food I’ve had in Dubai (a bbq is included in the price). There were plenty of activities to take part in on the camp grounds, like henna, shisha, falcon holding and camel rides- and it’s all included! Would definitely take…”

As we were there with our 8-year old children, we asked for relaxed desert safari with soft driving, and we got it:) Our charming guide Nomi is a very experienced driver, and we felt really safe while driving across the dunes. Then there were many other attractions, like taking photos at sunset, riding camels, stargazing through a telescope etc. We felt very confortable all the time. Nomi, thank you for the time we spent together, for your sense of humor, and for the beautiful pictures you took…”
