Dubai Desert Camp: Camel Ride, Bbq, Transfers At Fort Lisaili

I enjoyed the belly dancing show. Hycin was also a super guide! Thank you. We laughed all the way back. The food was also great

Arabian adventurers brilliant Thanks Zico

Food and drinks fine, nice show, a bit confused reception to find our booking , even if it was New Year’s Eve , but a very nice option for family night out in the desert

We visited as this was already included in our package so we did not realise that Camels were involved. Saying this I do not understand how everyone is giving this site 5 stars when all I saw was Camel abuse. A line of 3 camels were being led up and down with no riders and because they didn’t lay down and get up again fast enough they were continually whipped. The lead camel was aggressively pulled and shouted and whipped, this camel was moving his head away in fear all the time. I did film them and have reported them, but unfortunately because tourists pay the abuse will carry on and everyone needs to ask themselves if this happens in front of tourists, what happens when no one is watching? PLEASE DON’T RIDE CAMELS - You just add to their abuse.

The tour was amazing! We had so much fun. My daughter loved the dune bashing and camel ride. Thanks to our guide, Usman, he made our tour unforgettable.

What an amazing experience we’ve had tonight at Arabian Adventures. We rode sand dunes 4x4 with our incredible guide Arjun, who was super attentive bringing us gorgeous food and kept us hydrated in our cabana. We drove our own quads around the desert, enjoyed camel rides, got henna tattoos, watched an amazing show with dancers and fire breathers. It was so organised and we felt completely looked after! A must visit when coming to Dubai… we will be back

Great fun, good entertainment, good quality food and lovely atmosphere at the camp. Kevin our driver was very patient and friendly :)

A worthwhile trip! My wife and I booked this excursion and we weren’t disappointed. From pick up to drop off, it was a great evening, a good variety of food and entertainment and Kevin was a great host. A nice step away from the skyscrapers and sports cars to relax in the desert, great value for money.

It was fun but I will say it’s not as in the wild as they make you think be ready for a man made environment close to the motorway all and all though it was really enjoyable

Our guide, Mr.Ismail, was simply amazing on our Tour From the start, he was incredibly welcoming and went our ways to customize the tour to our interests. We especially appreciated how he pointed out hidden spots and local favorites we would have never found on our own. Their storytelling was captivating, bringing the history to life with humor and enthusiasm. We left feeling like we had just spent the day with a knowledgeable friend.

Brawn was Extremely Courteous Knowledge and Professional. He answered all my Questions Politely Quickly Thoroughly which helped me to Decide Quickly YES, I want to go on the Adventure. Abdoulrahim was equally the Highest and Most Talented Professional Sand Dune Driver, who it was impossible for him to get lost in the Desert and his timing for all the activities and Events were Perfect. He as well had so much knowledge about all that we experienced. We could not have gotten a Better Host and Guide. Everything was on point and a fun experience. Thank all of you for an experience of a Lifetime.

I was double charged for quad biking. One said Lisaili and the other Dubai Municipality both at the same cost. When I inquired with Arabian Adventures, I received no help and was told they have nothing to do with it since the description is different but the amount was exactly the same and for the same day. I checked regulations and couldn’t find anything that supports a rule saying Dubai Municipality charges an extra fee equal to 100% of a quad-bike or safari activity cost. No one told me when I was paying that I would be charged any municipal fees and even after enquiring no one bothered to explain to me what these costs would be. This makes me believe I was misleaded and misinformed when I was being charged for this activity. Makes me wonder if this is truly a municipal cost or I was just scammed under the false description of Dubai municipality since the company was very quick to exclude themselves and not offer any assistance. The only reason I’m giving a one star is because I had an amazing tour guide, Arjun. If I could rate him separately I would give him a solid 5 but as for Arabian Adventures as a business, a zero star would be the perfect fit.

Khalid sheesh is so kind and supper smart person that he helped us with safari and tur in Dubai. I want to recommend to anyone who want to travel in Dubai.

Miryam was incredibly supportive, and without her, our filming wouldn’t have gone so smoothly. Thank you so much for all your support.

Fort Lisaili Experience We took the Fort Lisaili Tour with Arabian Adventures on July 11. To our great luck, we had Anoop as our driver. He shared a lot of knowledge during the ride and also gave us insight into everyday life. The conversations were great, and the time flew by on the way to the camp. Even the brief moment when we got stuck in the sand didn’t ruin the experience. ;-) Once we arrived at the camp, he handed us over to the care of the camp elder, their “Baba.” He was the perfect person to make the quad tour an unforgettable experience for the kids. We were able to take amazing photos and videos of them during the ride. The dinner was varied and delicious. It was accompanied by the classic shows that no desert tour in Dubai is complete without – though they were definitely of a higher standard than what I experienced on a previous trip to Dubai. We especially enjoyed the fire show. (Thanks to Aziz at this point (i think that was his name). He gave us the hint for great finale with the fireworks to get a place in the front row) Unfortunately, there was no time left after the show, and we had to get to the car within just a few minutes. That was a bit of a shame. We would have liked to stay a bit longer to take some photos or to explore the market stalls at a relaxed pace. All in all, it was a wonderful day that we would book again in a heartbeat and can absolutely recommend to others. No dune bashing – just a lovely evening at the camp. Warm regards to Anoop and “Baba”!

This is an absolutely awesome desert camp getaway - only 45 minutes' drive away from Dubai city. It's situated in Lisaili (off Dubai-Al Ain Road E66). This is THE PLACE to go to, if you want to simply enjoy a desert evening with dinner, but without the rigorous dune drive. In fact, you also have the option to drive there yourself (in your own car) and you don't even need to have a 4WD for that. You can take a normal saloon/sedan car right up to the doorstep of the camp. If required, they also provide 2-way transfers from various hotels in Dubai, though. In the camp, there are recreational activities available, e.g. archery, badminton, camel ride, henna, etc. There's a beautiful sunset point perched up on a sand dune with some bean bags and a bar. It's highly advisable to reach the camp at least 1½ hours before the sunset, so that you can enjoy all these fun activities before it gets dark. The dinner is served a little after sunset, and it's a buffet with a good mix of vegetarian & grilled meat dishes. Food quality & taste is as good as can be out in the open desert, but the important part is that it is served hot & fresh. They also serve the UAE's favourite dessert - Logaimat. Soft drinks + alcoholic drinks are available from the bar on a self-service basis. You can also order a sheesha (water pipe / hubbly bubbly / hooqa) in various flavours. They have some fabulous shows during the dinner time: a Tanoura dance, a belly dance and a superb fire show - all of them, really spectacular! The one thing I didn't quite like about the arrangements here is that by default, they provide low seating (on cushions) at the camp. This can be pretty uncomfortable for elderlies, or generally people who are not used to sitting on the floor. (Table & chair seating is also available, but for an additional price - it's better to reserve this at the time of booking your package). All in all, if you're residents of Dubai and have some friends/family visiting but they're not interested in going on a full-fledged 'desert safari', this is the perfect place to take them to, to give them a wholesome desert experience.

Wonderful evening out. Great value for money, food was excellent, drink options perfect and entertainment (fire dancers) were fabulous. Friendly, professional and helpful staff. All round a great experience

We were told about this activity by our hotel concierge. We loved everything about it: great food, the possibility of buying drinks, entertainment (fire show), and the setup. Am definitely going back soon. It is a great value for money.

The best atmosphere of you can experience in the desert safari in Dubai. Helpful and experienced staff, cleanliness is amazing , delicious traditional food , beautiful sites to watch the sunset.

Located in Lisaili, is this beautiful desert-not-desert dinner spot. Great atmosphere, lovely food and activities. Beautiful sunset lounge.

Incredible and amazing experience. Well maintained. Fireworks were amazing. Good for family outing. Amazing spot for nightlife outings.

We recently visited the fort and I must say it was a great experience. Great entertainment and wonderful food, and all that for an exceptional price. We will definitely be returning for another visit soon!

Everything was amazing. We had a good time and we shared many photos. Our best driver Ismail make our day. Thank you Arabian adventures for this awesome trip

Pick-up from the hotel in a 4x4 to the Fort -> same Camp as the Café "Hidden" Here, we could take nice pictures in the dunes, with the mirror-cube and also enjoy the sunset. After the sunset we had a nice buffet dinner with 2 soft drinks. We also enjoyed the camel ride and amazing fire show. The host Bokhari was very friendly and welcomed us like his own family. The camp is a pretty new destination and thus we enjoyed everything with only few other guests (while there were like 20+ employees) -> it was an amazing service. The driver Alyas was also very friendly and drove us back to the hotel after the fire show. 100% recommendation. One topic to resolve: it said 2 soft drinks and unlimited water at the booking but the bar team was told to use the soft drink Chips also for water (they gave us water for free in the end) but it should be clarified on the website or with the employees.

Everything was great !!! The dinner was amazing, I love how it was in the middle of the desert. Service was fantastic. We got henna done, rode thru the dunes, watched the sunset and also sand surfed. Only thing I would recommend is taking dramamine for the dune ride if you get car sick. Our tour guide Anoop was very imformative and a great photographer!

We did the Dessert Safari tour and it was a great experience. The drive in the car was really fun, then we could witness a beautiful sunset and finally we enjoyed a nice dinner with several shows. It is a highly recommended activity if you're in Dubai. Special thanks to our driver Faisal Khan who was really attentive with us and fun to be with.

It was a sweet Birthday Sunrise Safari trip. Everything went perfectly, It all started with the great service of Shameem! Since the pick up was 5am even though I was still sleepy my energy was pumped up with an awesome vibe and very accommodating service! Me and my friends got perfect shots that we can keep forever. This is a perfect tour for friends and family. Thank you Arabian Adventures for making my special day a perfect and an awesome one. I fell in love with Dubai even more the desert and sunrise , camels and oryx greeted me with their beauties. And I commend Shameem for a job well done! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

It is a great experience. For those who are want to see the sunrise in different places and take pictures, it is perfect. Furthermore the team and information are very good. Enjoy

Picked up by our guide Saleh, from our hotel in JBR at 3:30am. We made our way to the nature reserve which was about an hour. I was greeted with what can be described as the most beautiful view ever. Drinks and snacks were laid out while you watched the sunrise in your tent. (the photos attached doesn't do the view justice).As you watched the sunrise appear in the distance, Gazelles and Oryx's would walk around which made for a spectacular experience. I would highly recommend this excursion. Saleh was one of the best tour guides I have ever had. His knowledge and love for the desert and animals was truly remarkable and he is a true credit to Arabian Adventures. Thank you ever so much

Yasser, the driver, was punctual, polite and very informative. We had a wonderful morning and enjoyed the peace and tranquility of this beautiful desert. It was amazing to see the oryx and Yasser stopped to show us many other animals that we had not seen before.

We just finished the sunrise safari and had one of the best experiences, with Sajid and Nader from Arabian Adventures. They were both very warm and welcoming, and great knowledge of the landscape. The safety precautions taken to ensure food was sanitized and the hygiene kits provided for each person was also very good to see. And barely feel the summer heat that early! Will definitely come back :)

Living in UAE for almost 10 years and having enjoyed many times the Sunset Safari was gorgeous but then I said, why not try Sunsire Safari? It was our first experience to see the Sunrise in the desert and it was amazing. We got picked up from our location very early morning, arrived in the DDCR camp when was still dark and then we went to a tent where the breakfast has been served in a perfect weather, fresh air and nice breeze during the summer of Dubai. After that, our Safari Guide Abdul took us to a lovely nature walk through out a greenery place and lake in the desert. Many thanks to Abdul and Arabian Adventures to give us an opportunity to enjoy such special moment.

Experienced Sunrise safari first time and the experience was amazing. We had small kids with us and they enjoyed it a lot specially sunrise views, close look of wild life (Arabian Orax & sand gazelles), forest walk and lake views. Our guide Faisal Khan was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of info about desert life, tips for survival :) and keep kids engaged through out the trip. Weather was perfect in the morning even at this month of the year.

Haven't thought the kids would love sunrise safari more than we did! 🏜 We have been residents of Dubai for more than a decade now and this is the first time we tried the safari in the morning. My family and friends braved to be out in the desert after being at home for over 3 months. We were picked up at 03:30 in the morning on separate landcruisers by 3 safari guides and took notice how they value safety and health procedures seriously, which is a great relief for us parents considering we have our kiddos with us: ✔temperature check ✔sanitizers ✔booster seats ✔seatbelts ✔travel hygiene kits ✔maximum of 5 guest per car; social distancing Our guides: Nadir, Aziz and Dilawar, who are equally informative and entertaining, ensured that we enjoy the experience and spot as many animals in the wild as we can without compromising our health and safety. Amazing guys!!! Kids were able to spot Oryx, gazelles, monitor lizards, camels, etc. freely in the desert - a fun and educational activity for the kids to encounter and remember. Highly recommended and safe to do with Arabian Adventures!!!!👌😊👍👍 Tag along your family and friends and enjoy the fresh breath of the desert in the morning!

Excellent experience! From the dune driving to the sunset in the desert, photo with a falcon, camel ride and henna. Great food and entertainment. The was our highlight of our time in Dubai.

We had fun and it was a good experience. The temperature was perfect in the morning. Not too cold. Light jacket was fine. I liked it also that the area we went to wasn’t crowded with people that it was perfect to take pictures. The quietness of the morning and watching the sun rise is perfect that you can’t help but appreciate God’s creation. Our tour guide Anoop was very accommodating. Will try the overnight safari next time.

Had an absolutely great time myself and the colleagues. Our guide Latif if I'm not mistaken he told us a lot about Dubai and the desert with great manner. The company’s respect for the desert and all the animals was emphasized. Loved the Bedouin experience at the end! Thank you Latif for giving us such a great evening! We will definitely repeat it again and recommend friends.

We boarded our 4WD's and headed into the sand dunes. Our driver Som was excellent and (safely) drove up & down the dunes giving us a ride like a rollercoaster!! Wow it was fantastic! The 4WD was immaculately clean and maintained. We stopped for a sunset photo opportunity and were perfectly placed to capture the sun going down in the desert. The desert camp activities of camel riding , holding a falcon ,and sand toboggoning were well organised and great fun. The meal was good quality and well prepared (being in the desert) - we booked the silver tour which made everything simple. The entertainment was great - the whirling dancer and belly dancing especially. Great adventure - thanks for a wonderful experience

First of all I am thankful to Arabian adventure for the beautiful arrangements and setup. Our driver was Mr. Ikhlaq, we were on time picked up from Hotel went out of his way to make the desert trail worth it. Our guider was very professional, nice voice tone and well knowledgeable. He started with telling us about the history of the country on our way to the desert. I realized one thing about Arabian Adventure after this wonderful desert safari trip that the selection in the company is on merit and much happy for locating Mr. Ikhlaq as our trip guider. Wishing more successes and achievements for Arabian Adventure

This was, without doubt, the highlight of our week in Dubai. The land cruiser we travelled in was immaculately clean and the driver well turned out and professional (though not very chatty, he told us what we needed to know but added no extra info or local insight). It was great to see the changing landscape as we left Dubai and headed to the desert, look out for the camels! The dune bashing was brilliant fun and something so different from anything we had ever done before. Not for the faint hearted though, there was a couple of times where I thought the land cruiser might roll but the drivers are obviously highly skilled and experienced. The camp where the cruisers stop for dinner and entertainment is so professional and well done, I was genuinely surprised. Properly plumbed, clean toilets, lots of eating/relaxing space and a very well thought out buffet dinner with lots of options to suit everyone. The entertainment is very professional and good to watch, though the absolute highlight for my kids was the camel rides and sand boarding. This is by no means a cheap option compared to others on trip adviser, but as it is operated by an Emirates associated company, you absolutely pay for quality. Highly recommend!

Fantastic walk, from the adrenaline in the dunes, to fantastic photos, food, fun with the friendly ARJUN (Safari Guide). I recommend

Nice experience in the desert, inside a fort. Great dinner buffet, nice camel ride (ideal for children), tatoo all'henne and beautiful final show with fires. Quiet hike ideal for families with children. Great pick up service from the hotel and value for money. Purchased at the box of the Dubai cruise terminal on the advice of an efficient girl who managed to direct us to the most suitable excursion for our expectations.

We were picked up from the hotel very early because we were the first in our group. But that worked wonderfully and our guide was very accommodating. We were "lucky" that it rained just before and so it was extremely foggy in the morning. We didn't notice much of the sunrise itself. But even in Dubai, not everything can be controlled and nature takes its course. In any case, this should happen very rarely, because everyone was surprised by the fogged windows and the dense fog, I don't think you see anything like that here. We then decided together to bring breakfast forward. A little later the sun came through and it still got really nice. One advantage of the humidity was that it was possible to climb the dunes, which would certainly have taken a lot of effort in dry sand. The drive through the nature park with many gazelles and oryx (including little oryx babies) was also nice. There are also guaranteed to be some to see because they are diligently fed. All in all, despite fog, it was a very nice, cozy trip into the desert. If you want some action you might want to book a dune bashing trip, but we really liked this leisurely trip.
