Action Packed Morning Adventure
Be picked in the morning from your Dubai accommodation and arrive at the dunes just before 9am to start some camel trekking. The original transportation in the region and a fantastic photo opportunity. From here we drive to the Quad biking, Sandboarding and Dune Driving location for the modern, 21st century transportation options. It's thrilling, exciting, adventurous and incredibly fun.
You will be transported in the same 4x4 throughout the tour. Your driver/guide will share a narrative about the surroundings, general UAE history, desert safety, and general conversation. You will be left with amazing memories, a story for life to share with everyone you meet, and plenty of photos to remind you of the time you spent out in the dunes of the UAE. There will be water and soft drinks provided throughout, included in the rate.
After your action-packed day you will be returned to your hotel or residence at approximately 1pm.

Great desert safari
I had 4 desert safaris with Destination Insight over the last few years with colleagues and family in different occasions. They were professional in all and made sure everyone had a great time. Baiju was our driver in the last two; he's a great driver for dune bashing, professional all the time and made sure everyone had fun. Definitely recommended.

Morning Adventure Package - Highly Recommend!
We booked the Morning Adventure Package with Destination Insight Dubai, and it was an incredible experience from start to finish. We had a small mix-up with our scheduled date initially, but it was sorted out quickly and smoothly. Huge thanks to Ali, who truly saved the day! He was extremely friendly, great communication, and being three females travelling together, we felt safe and well taken care of throughout the entire adventure.
A massive shoutout also goes to Mary, who helped us plan and organise everything before we arrived. She was very knowledgeable on all things Dubai and made sure the package fit exactly what we were looking for. Her flexibility with timings and activities made our planning stress-free.
Overall, we had an amazing experience and would highly recommend Destination Insight to anyone wanting to see a bit of culture and enjoy a memorable adventure while holidaying in Dubai.

Quality and fun hike!
Finally a desert excursion different from the usual ones both for the area where you go on the dunes and for the quality of the small and well-kept tented camp and the dinner, of excellent quality. The drivers are very professional and very kind!

Desert adventure
The tour was very well organized, just the right amount of time for every activity. Our guide Prasanth was super knowledgeable and reassuring, making sure we were comfortable and having fun every step of the way.
The desert is magnificent, and it is a special thing to be able to experience it, so this adventure is not to be missed. Loved the dunes, the camels, and the buggy ride, very exciting and adrenaline fueled.
