# Dubai Afternoon Desert Safari and BBQ Dinner

**Guidekin's take:** An afternoon safari whose camp adds a shawarma station and an Arabic bread station to the buffet, after a dune drive, sunset stop, camel rides and sandboarding, with henna, shisha and two shows. Pickup is included; alcohol is not served, and a child under four means booking a private car. 4.84 from 1021 reviews at €73 per person for 6h.
