15 Camel Rides That End Under the Stars

30 tours  ·  from $12 a head

★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 21,620 reviews · from $88Our pick

Spend about six hours exploring Dubai’s Lahbab desert with a 60-minute ATV ride, sandboarding, camel time, Arabic coffee, henna, falcon photos, and a BBQ dinner at Al Khayma Camp. Guides such as Dennis, Asif Foji, and Imran Khan are praised for clear instructions and attentive service.

“By far the best tour during my time in Dubai! Transportation was provided from our hotel; the ATV riding was a blast! I like that you have the option to do a less intense course in front of the main building, but I recommend the course with the hills and soft sand- the scenery is remarkable. The camp site that you go to after is amazing; some of the best food I’ve had in Dubai (a bbq is included in the price). There were plenty of activities to take part in on the camp grounds, like henna, shisha, falcon holding and camel rides- and it’s all included! Would definitely take…”
