A Desert Safari Abu Dhabi is more than just a tour – it’s a journey into the soul of the Arabian desert. At Golden Desert Safari, we don’t offer trips; we create moments that stay with you forever. Whether you crave adrenaline-fueled dune bashing or serene sunset views, this desert escape delivers unmatched experiences.
Why Choose Abu Dhabi for a Desert Safari?
Abu Dhabi is the capital of the UAE and home to some of the most majestic sand dunes in the world. Unlike the bustling cityscape of Dubai, Abu Dhabi’s desert offers raw, untouched landscapes. Here, the silence of the dunes tells stories of ancient Bedouin life, and the wide-open spaces promise freedom, fun, and fascination.
Unique Terrain, Deeper Cultural Roots
While both cities offer desert safaris, Abu Dhabi’s desert has higher, redder dunes and fewer crowds. That means you get more privacy and a genuine sense of solitude. Plus, the local culture here remains more deeply rooted in traditional Emirati heritage, which makes your tour more immersive.
What’s Included in a Desert Safari Abu Dhabi?
Our Desert Safari Abu Dhabi packages are packed with adventure, comfort, and local charm. We divide the experience into stages so you get the best of everything.
1. Hotel Pick-Up in a 4x4
Your journey starts with a smooth pick-up from your hotel or residence in Abu Dhabi. Our professional drivers navigate the desert with skill and care, ensuring you feel safe while enjoying the ride.
2. Dune Bashing – Feel the Rush!
One of the highlights of any desert safari is the dune bashing session. You’ll ride across sand dunes in a powerful 4x4 vehicle as your driver takes you on a thrilling rollercoaster ride. The dunes in Abu Dhabi are taller and steeper than you expect, giving you a heart-racing experience.
Safety Tip: All vehicles are equipped with roll cages and seat belts, and our guides are certified in first aid.
3. Camel Riding – Travel Like the Bedouins
Get a feel for how locals traveled centuries ago. Hop on a camel and enjoy a slow-paced, peaceful journey across the sands. It’s not just relaxing – it also connects you with a rich cultural history.
4. Sandboarding – Surf the Dunes
If you enjoy snowboarding or skating, you’ll love sandboarding. Strap a board on your feet and glide down the slopes of the golden desert. It’s safe, fun, and suitable for all ages.
A Taste of Local Culture and Cuisine
After the adrenaline fades, the next phase of the Desert Safari Abu Dhabi begins — a cultural evening under the stars.
5. Traditional Camp Experience
Our desert camp feels like a step back in time. It’s styled like a traditional Bedouin setup but with modern comforts. You can relax on Arabic floor cushions, enjoy shisha, and sip on Arabic coffee or tea.
6. Live Cultural Shows
Every night, we host live entertainment that reflects the richness of Arabian traditions. Enjoy:
Tanoura Dance – A spiritual dance full of swirling colors.
