The experience
Your time in the desert starts with Arabic coffee and dates. Then comes thirty minutes of dune bashing in a Land Cruiser, climbing and dropping over the sand with a driver trained for these dunes. A ten-minute photo stop follows, where you can pose in local costume beside an Arabian falcon before the day moves on.
Next is the quad. Twenty minutes in open desert, with basic training and a helmet and safety gear, gives you the controls for yourself. Short camel riding and sand boarding are also part of the outing, so you can try the sand on foot as well as from the saddle or the board.
Back at the main area, the programme keeps going. Tanoura, belly dance and fire shows take the stage, and henna artists paint ladies and kids. Adults who want it can sit in the dedicated sheesha area, while tea, coffee, water and soft drinks stay unlimited. The BBQ buffet offers both veg and non-veg dishes to end the evening.
