Among the attractions of Dubai is the famous Desert Safari adventure which practically involves you get to a) see and feel the desert b) experience sand dune in 4x4 c) camel riding , belly dance and even quad biking.
The are a lot of packages for the desert safari and which time you wanna go. The package normally include if not all of the above inclusive of dinner if you take the evening ride.
Hubs arrange for the evening ride for us and as we begin our journey , the driver pick us up at home btw.. i begin to imagine orange sandy desert in the middle of nowhere but as soon as we reach the destination ... ok basically its next to the highway. The journey would probably take about not more than an hour half to reach there.
One thing i notice for this Arab people is , the want everything easy and fuss free for them to go anywhere even outdoor. Not like what we have in Malaysia where you would drive up - take boat - trakking through the jungle.. for them not even close. Even camping picnic on the desert just next to the road side - you have the highway as your view. It was a pretty interesting sight on our journey back home from the desert because you will see all the Arab 4x4 park and there you go picnic. Cars would go Zoooommm........... next to them.
I wished i could have taken the pictures to see but anyway below would be close what i describe to.
Just imagine the road is only about 10-20 meters away.
Off we begin with the sand dune!
Sand Dune = roller coaster on the ground in 4x4 minus being held up in the air.
this will go probably 30-40mins then they will allow you some time to take picture , breath in the sand then off to the campsite.
Here where all other activities begin and dinner were serve.. ok buffet dinner to be exact.
Well here i got to experience having you dinner siting on a cushion on the sand , the arab style.
By this time we pretty famished and can't wait to get our butt in the car and back home.
Too long waiting and the dance pretty much you will get bored halfway.
Oh did i tell you , it was chilling cold by night. So during winter to the desert pack some warm clothes.
Overall did we enjoy it Yes.
But i somehow find what in the brochure says the experience somehow over-rated , well unless you want class the way.
