We partner with Rewilding Britain to help protect our natural spaces for future adventures.
All centres are vetted for safety and quality. Your adventure is in good hands with adventuro.
Spend an evening in the Abu Dhabi desert combining dune bashing, a camel farm visit, sandboarding and a camp BBQ with live entertainment. Shared air-conditioned Land Cruiser transfers collect you from Abu Dhabi hotels between 2:30 pm and 3:30 pm and return you to the city by around 9:30 pm, so the full outing lasts roughly six hours from pick-up to drop-off.
After pick-up your driver heads into the dunes for dune bashing and a desert drive in a shared Land Cruiser, with up to six guests per jeep. The climbs, descents and turns across soft sand are the main adventure stretch of the afternoon, with time to enjoy open desert views as the light softens towards sunset.
Stops typically include a camel farm and a short camel ride, plus sandboarding on selected slopes. Henna painting is available as part of the wider evening once you reach camp. Optional quad biking can be added at the camp for an extra charge if you want another burst of adrenaline later on.
The evening continues at a desert camp with Arabic coffee, tea, soft drinks, shisha and a BBQ dinner. Live entertainment usually includes belly dancing, a Tanura show and fire shows before your return transfer to the city, with drop-off usually back at your original pick-up area around 9:30 pm.
The safari runs in the desert outside Abu Dhabi, with hotel pick-ups across the city rather than a fixed self-drive meeting point. The camp sits away from the urban core so you get open dune views and a traditional evening atmosphere once the driving and sand activities are done.
Travel time depends on your pick-up point and traffic. Exact collection details are confirmed when your booking request is accepted, so be ready a few minutes early at the lobby or agreed point.
No previous desert experience is needed. Drivers operate the 4x4s for dune bashing, and staff guide the camp activities. Comfortable clothing and closed or secure footwear work best for sandboarding and walking at camp, with a warmer layer useful in winter from November to March.
Maximum participant weight is 120 kg. Bring sunglasses and sunscreen for the late afternoon light, plus a camera if you want sunset and camp photos.
Tours are built around clear communication, punctual transfers and attentive drivers who know the Abu Dhabi desert routes well. Guests regularly mention smooth organisation from pick-up to drop-off, with shared vehicles that keep the evening moving without long waits between stops.
The evening format balances adventure on the dunes with a relaxed camp dinner and cultural entertainment, so first-time visitors and returning guests both get a full desert night rather than a short drive-only outing.
Be ready at your Abu Dhabi hotel lobby or agreed pick-up point a few minutes before collection. Shared air-conditioned Land Cruisers collect guests between 2:30 pm and 3:30 pm, with up to six guests per jeep for the journey into the dunes.
Exact timing depends on your location in Abu Dhabi and is confirmed once your booking request is accepted.
Drive into the Abu Dhabi dunes for dune bashing and a desert drive. Your safari driver handles the climbs, descents and turns while you stay seated with seatbelts fastened in the Land Cruiser.
This is the main adventure stretch of the afternoon and sets up the later farm and camp stops under changing desert light.
Visit a camel farm in the desert, then enjoy a short camel ride. Soft sand underfoot and classic desert views make this a favourite photo stop between driving and the camp.
Staff guide you through the stop so first-time riders can take part safely and at an easy pace.
Try sandboarding on the dunes and take in the sunset light across the open desert. Boards are provided for sliding down selected slopes before you continue to camp.
Henna painting is also available as part of the wider evening experience once you reach the camp area.
Settle into the desert camp for Arabic coffee, tea, soft drinks, shisha and a BBQ dinner. Live entertainment typically includes belly dancing, a Tanura show and fire shows as the evening unfolds.
Optional quad biking is available at the camp for an extra charge if you want another burst of adventure after dinner.
After the entertainment, board your Land Cruiser for the return transfer into Abu Dhabi. Drop-off is usually back at your original pick-up area by around 9:30 pm.
Traffic and your hotel location can slightly change the clock time, so keep your phone available for any late updates from the driver.
You are collected from your hotel lobby, mall entrance or another agreed pick-up point in Abu Dhabi. Be ready a few minutes before the confirmed time.
After the safari you are dropped back at the same area. Private meeting at a fixed venue is not required because transfers are part of the tour.
The programme covers dune bashing in a shared 4x4, a camel farm visit, a short camel ride, sandboarding, henna painting and time at the desert camp for sunset.
At camp you also get refreshments, BBQ dinner, shisha, belly dancing, a Tanura show and fire shows. Quad biking can be added for an extra charge if you want more adrenaline.
Hotel pick-up in Abu Dhabi is scheduled between 2:30 pm and 3:30 pm. Your exact collection time depends on where you are staying and is confirmed when your booking request is accepted.
The full experience lasts approximately six hours from pick-up, with return to the city usually by around 9:30 pm. Adult places are AED 290 and child places are AED 217 when you book on Adventuro.
Yes. Transfers are included from Abu Dhabi hotels, with collection from your hotel lobby or agreed point and return to the same area at the end of the evening.
Be ready a few minutes early so the shared Land Cruiser can keep to schedule for everyone on board.
Land Cruisers are shared, with up to six guests per air-conditioned jeep for the desert drive and dune bashing.
Larger parties may be split across vehicles. Private vehicle options can be discussed when you request a booking.
The minimum age is 3 years. Families are welcome when children can follow guidance at camp and during the desert stops.
Parents should judge whether younger children will be comfortable with dune driving motion.
Comfortable clothing and closed or secure footwear work best for sandboarding and walking at camp. Sunglasses and sunscreen help during the late afternoon light.
From November to March evenings can cool down, so pack a light jacket or warmer layer for the return drive.
A BBQ dinner is included at the desert camp as part of the evening programme, along with soft drinks, water, tea and Arabic coffee.
Dietary needs should be noted when you request a booking so the team can advise what is available on the night.
No. Quad biking is an optional add-on with additional charges at the camp. Everything else listed under inclusions is part of the standard evening package.
If you want to add a quad session, mention it when requesting your booking so availability can be checked.
Yes. A short camel ride and a camel farm visit are included in the standard evening package, alongside dune bashing, sandboarding and the desert camp dinner.
The camel farm stop is a photo favourite for many guests, with staff on hand to help first-time riders mount and dismount at an easy pace. The ride is brief rather than a long trek, so it fits neatly between the dune driving and camp activities.
