Book the evening safari
  1. We pick you up at the hotel door

    An air-conditioned 4x4 and a licensed driver, with a trip to the edge of the dunes.

  2. Over the dunes

    We let the tyres down and climb the red dunes, driving gently or boldly as you like, with stops for photos.

  3. Sunset from a high dune

    Sandboarding for those who want it, then the silence of the desert as the sun sets behind the dunes.

  4. Camels and Arabic coffee

    A short camel ride by the camp, with cardamom coffee and dates to welcome you.

  5. Barbecue dinner and shows

    Barbecue and vegetarian dishes cooked in front of you, then the tanoura and fire shows around the majlis.

  6. Stars, then home

    We switch off the camp lights for a few minutes so you can see the stars, then bring you back to your door between 21:30 and 22:00.

Common questions

Before you
set off with us.

Didn't find your question? Call or message us, and we answer from 8 am to 10 pm.

Best to skip the dune bashing: Pregnant guests, anyone with back or neck problems, and children under 3. We arrange a quiet road to the camp for them, so they miss nothing.

Is hotel pick-up included?

Yes. We pick you up from your hotel or home anywhere in Saudi Arabia and bring you back at no extra cost. For other destinations there is a small fee, which we tell you when we confirm.

What is the minimum age for children?

Children of all ages are welcome at the camp and on the camel trek, and we provide child seats on request. We recommend dune bashing from age 3 and driving a dune buggy from age 16; younger children ride beside a parent.

Is dune bashing suitable during pregnancy or with back problems?

We do not recommend it for pregnant guests, anyone with back or neck problems, or anyone who should avoid strong jolts for any reason. Tell us when you book and we arrange a quiet road to the camp without dune bashing, with the full sunset, dinner and shows.

What does the evening safari include?

Pick-up and drop-off, about 30 minutes of dune bashing with a licensed driver, a sunset stop and sandboarding, a short camel ride, Arabic coffee and dates, a barbecue dinner with vegetarian dishes, and the tanoura and fire shows. Water and soft drinks are included.

Can I cancel or change the date?

Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before pick-up, by phone or WhatsApp. After that you can move the date once at no charge, subject to availability.

What happens in the summer heat or in a sandstorm?

From June to September morning trips end before 9 am and evening trips start after the worst of the heat, with cold water in every car. If there is a dust or wind warning, we move the trip or refund it in full.

What should I wear in the desert?

Comfortable cotton clothes in pale colours, closed shoes or sports sandals, sunglasses and a hat. In winter bring a light jacket, as the desert cools down after sunset.

How many guests are in each car?

No more than six guests on shared trips, and a seat belt for every seat. On a private trip the car and driver are for your family or group alone.
