The experience

The safari starts with pickup from your Doha location, then heads into the desert for dune bashing in a private vehicle. Once at the camp, you settle into a room for the night and have access to bathroom facilities with fresh water. The pace shifts from the drive to activities you choose: beach volleyball, swimming at the camp, or simply watching the desert settle into darkness.

Dinner is a BBQ served at the camp, followed by a bonfire where the night deepens. You sleep in the camp's accommodations, then wake to a continental breakfast before the return drive to Doha. The whole experience runs 16 to 18 hours from pickup to drop-off. A live guide speaks English, Arabic or Urdu throughout, and insurance is included in the booking.

Is this one for you?The 16 to 18 hour commitment means an early pickup and a full day and night away from the city, so book this if you want to step away from Doha entirely rather than fit the desert into an afternoon. Dune bashing involves movement across uneven terrain, so a moderate level of fitness helps you enjoy it. It is not recommended for travelers with spinal injuries, pregnancy or cardiovascular concerns.
