Don't worry, we have got you covered. This section will help you go over all the necessary points you will need to consider before you book your safari and also offer you recommendations so you can make an informed decision.
An unforgettable desert safari adventure in Dubai awaits you with our convenient and budget-friendly booking options. Avoid the hassles of onsite booking and enjoy a seamless online experience with us.
Why book online?
Absolutely! There's no doubt about it. It's the best time of day to spend your time trying exciting activities across a vast expanse of golden sand dunes in Dubai. You'll get the unique chance to try adventure activities such as sandboarding, dune-bashing, camel riding, quad biking and more, with your friends and family. You'll also get to try a wide variety of dishes as part of the breakfast experience. You can discover the rare wildlife and plants that are found in the desert, as well as get the chance to learn about Bedouin culture.
Start your day early and indulge in an adventure in the deserts of Dubai. Watch the sunrise, try adventure activities such as dune-bashing, sandboarding, and quad biking among others, indulge in a delicious breakfast menu, and learn about local Bedouin culture. Finally, your safari also includes round-trip transfers in an air-conditioned vehicle.
While there are several that you can choose from, the best options would often depend on your budget and schedule. Here are our best recommendations:
It depends on what you're looking for. Morning desert safaris have the advantage of being held during early hours of the day, allowing you to enjoy the experience in bright daylight. Moreover, morning safaris focus on adventure activities which may be difficult to experience during the evening, so that's another advantage of opting for these. Evening safaris include elaborate BBQ dinners and live entertainment, focusing more on the entertainment aspect of the experience. Finally, another major indication is cost. Morning safaris are relatively lower priced compared to evening safaris in Dubai.
While the price may vary depending on the experience and inclusions you opt for, our starting price for morning safaris is as low as only AED 95.
Yes! Every experience you book with us includes round-trip return transfers. You'll be picked up from your hotel or a common meeting point in the city in an air-conditioned vehicle and dropped back after the safari. This will save you the hassle of planning your commute, since the deserts are located quite far from the city.
The summer months between June to September get quite hot during the desert and may not be the ideal time to go for a morning desert safari. It's best to visit between October to April to enjoy pleasant mornings in the desert.
It's best to wear comfortable cotton clothing like trousers, shorts, and t-shirts, with breathable shoes on your safari in Dubai. Don’t forget to carry sunscreen, sunglasses, and a hat, cap, or scarf.
Pregnant women, guests with heart, neck, or spine conditions, and senior citizens are advised to avoid adventure activities such as dune bashing.
It was very amazing trip, we saw beautiful desert view with sweet camels and funny sandboarding. Jeep trip was exciting with Shaukat Hussain. He is the best guide for everyone.
Great Experience Thank You Shaukat Hussain our Safari driver and guide is greatly appreciated. A fun and adventurous experience with insight and instructions and of course action packed safari, falconry, sand snowboarding as well as a scenic camel ride. Highly recommend it while it is a can Miss Experience!!! I will be booking with Fun Tours Next Time! Thank You Shaukat Hussain and Fun Tours
Waleed was our Guide, amazing guy! He had the detail to explain us more about the Dubai city and people, culture and spots to visit. The activity plan was great and we had a blast on the red desert, Waleed is a master on the terrain! I would like to recommend the plan to anyone looking for some adrenaline!
Great experience, definitely worth the time and money. Desert is beautiful in February. It's still not too hot, so at this time of year is pretty amazing. Our driver was Noor, and he show some amazing skills while driving through the dunes.
The Desert Safari was very well organized, pick up and drop off locations were exact, the car was very nice and safe, our tour guide/driver was also very kind and helpful. Camel riding, dune bashing and the desert view itself will be a memorable experience, you shouldn't miss it! Thank you for everything
Najeeb was a fab guide and driver on the dunes. He correctly encouraged us to upgrade our quad bike experience to the dunes and not the small area. Initially we were reluctant, being tight English! However we did and we were so grateful for doing so. It was long and fab. Defo one on your list to do. We will return. The guide for the quads was also excellent. Excellent communication with booking and guide re pick up and all questions answere promptly. Overall excellent service.
It was really good, starting with the local tour operator and the guide Yaseen that made sure we get enough adrenaline. Highly recommend

Our guide was wonderful and we experienced many new things. Our guide, Soni, was fantastic. Dune bashing was very fun and he gave us advice on what other activities to do such as the ATV desert ride. This experience is something we will never forget.
Morning desert safari led by our guide Soni was a fabulous experience. We would love to do it again and highly recommend it. Soni is friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. A morning well spent!
I had an incredible experience going on a desert safari with Yasir Bukhari. It was so fun. I’d highly recommend it
We had a wonderful experience from the pick up, the movements. the assigned Person by the name of Hassan was very very friendly and nice. He gave us a very nice experience at the desert from the camel experience all the way to the Desert dune drive. He also assisted and took some pictures. The booking at headout was ok too with no challenges
Great, must do with kids. Unique experience
Even though I had a great driver and tour guide, the tour itself was very underwhelming. All the guide did was sit me and 2 other people in his 4x4 land cruiser and just drift around some desert land. When he took us to the camel rides, we found out it was not a ride. We just pose for pictures with the camels. That the actual ride comes at an additional cost. I had quad bike included in my package too, and just like the camel ride, it was mostly to spin the quad bike in circle. The tour guide mentioned that to actual have a camel tour or quad bike tour, this would cost extra hundreds off dollars. No where in headout was this mentioned that the camel and quad bike experience would be just stationary events not actual excursions tours. I actually feel this was poorly advertised and I should get a full refund or partial refund as the tour did not live up to its expectations. Lastly, 1 of the other guests was vomiting during the 4x4 desert tour, as I mentioned before, the 4x4 tour was just mostly going in circles in high speed. Even after all that, I spent an extra money to take pictures with a falcon. At the price I paid for this package, the falcon should have neen included as well as some professional photos. It upsets me that my experience was very underwhelming versus what I had paid for.
Hi there ! Let's start with the negative points : - The duration mentioned was 5h but we finished the activities in about 1:30h - The camel ride took roughly 7mn - The Quad biking activity is held inside a small circle which is good for families with kids... not thrill seekers. There should be a clearer description of the Quad biking activities like what's included or not and the upgrade options so the client won't be surprised when asked to pay 300aed for a ride out of the circle. The positive points : - Good activities for clients who want to have a quick taste of the desert safari and not spend the whole day out. - Ricardo was super friendly yet professional and went out of his way to make sure the experience was a success. - Good value for money if the client doesn't pay any "upgrade" fees. - The dune bashing was entertaining. Will I recommend ? Yes for peolple who want a quick fun activity.
Everything, it was fabulous, maybe next time I will book the night one. But was a good experience 👌👌❤️❤️
Dawood was really nice and helpful, knowledgeable and we had a great time Great service amd experience, very good driver

First of all Muhammad Munir was a perfect gent when we got to the sunrise spot we had coffee and dates waited for a few minutes for the sun to come up Muhammad took photos for me and my wife as the sun was coming up. The desert was very peaceful and a beautiful place. The dune bashing was fantastic real fun, expertly driven. Breakfast was simple but very nice water, juices, yogurt/smoothie drink. Fruit, pastrys and sandwiches/ wraps. Then onto love lake/flamingo like where we took more photos. It was an awesome experience definitely recommend 5*.
Ticketing experience was smooth! Best decision to go for the sunrise dessert safari.
In Time pick up, extremely professional driver & friendly attitude; amazing Sun Rise Experience; Sand Boarding was great fun; Best Sand Bashing and finally a delicious breakfast on a Lake side !! Truly an awesome experience !! A must have activity by everyone !!
An amazing contrast to the bright lights of Dubai to arrive in the desert in the dark and watch the sunrise was an experience I'll never forget , well worth the early start. A great driver , loved the dune bashing and a tasty picnic breakfast 5* all round.
A great short desert experience for those short on time. The sunrise was breathtaking. The guides picked us up at our hotel right on time and took care of us for the journey, even assisting with photo taking.
the driver arrived at 3pm, instead of 2 as was declared on the site. Also, stopped to fill the bus tank. The bus was crowded and the space was limited during covid situation. The event itself was ok, but didnt like there were hidden details like the buffet opens at 7:30. The SUV time was fun but short.
The overall Desert Safari experience is over rated. The food is below par, activities except for fire show quite ordinary, and overall not very thrilling what I expected. However I'm rating this highly only for the reason that my car driver Commando made every effort to make it awesome. I'm thankful to him and he worked hard to make our experience enjoyable. Thank you to Commando, and I hope you work to make desert safari a better experience.
I like headout as they keep us updated a day before i received whats app for the detailed instruction and the day of safari the driver called us and on time. Very good service!
I actually thought there is a mistake in pricing and they will ask us to pay more at the venue! But no! Everything was paid for and it really was such a cheap deal for this awesome experience.
You know how some restaurants offer bad service for using discount sites, this wasn't like that! They were nice and took care of everything we needed.
We did so many things on this safari that I don't even recollect everything. We loved the fire show, dune bashing and the camel ride the most.
Headout is very easy and straightforward. There are good deals to choose from. However, I think it would be a great idea in some cases to be able to reschedule.
What makes the voucher worth buying is the fact that it's all inclusive. You're going to love the authentic Dubai experience on it!

The driver was very nice and the dune bashing part was pretty good too, but on the other hand the rest of the experience wasn't quite as nice. The breakfast that was be included never happened, instead we got a half of a mini cup of some tea and a single date. The sand boarding part was way too short and we didn't have time to enjoy it all and felt very rushed to return to the car.
A real raw experience to remember. If you've got an afternoon to spare I encourage you to definitely go for it! There may be delays and some unexpected situations, but that's a part of the experience! :)
That was really awesome, totally worthed!!! The guide Mr. Aamir Khan was superb!!! Very nice, friendly and helpful. Really glad that we took the package. Amazing experience 🥰☺️
Camel ride was less than a minute. They tried to sell you lots of stuff. Entertainment was good. Food was geared more Toward vegetarians. Overall it was a good experience.
