Abu Dhabi Desert Safari Overview

Taking an Abu Dhabi desert tour is a delight for every traveller/ tourist because it is a good mix of fun, adventure and cultural know-how. Be it a car drive or a bumpy camel ride, thedesert safari in Abu Dhabi is truly exciting. The feel of the terrain is something that you would be engulfed into and would carry along for life!

Dune bashing is one of the best parts of the safari although it comes with many hair-raising moments. With the maddening roller-coaster drive, wheel spinning swirls of sand over the car, riding sideways on two wheels and falling back, it is one life time experience. For an adventure lover, it is simply euphoria!

As the sun goes down and you enjoy breath-taking views of the landscape at many picturesque locations, you get an opportunity to carry your memories in the form of photographs.

Before long it is time to enjoy the rich culture and hospitality of the Gulf in the form of fine food spread, beverages on a star studded night surrounded by the cool desert aura. Shisha and belly dancing along the campfire are other attractions that bring laughter and smiles to culminate the night.

If you are lucky enough, you might as well go for some more small adventures in the shape of quad biking, sand boarding or a soothing camel ride.
