# Dubai Desert Safari with Dune Bashing Camel Ride BBQ and Shows

**Guidekin's take:** An evening safari in four tiers, standard or VIP lounge, with or without a half-hour quad: shared dune bashing, sandboarding, a camel ride, henna, three shows and a BBQ buffet. Shared pickup from Dubai or Sharjah is included; the quad has age rules, and pickups outside the service area cost extra. 4.84 from 502 reviews at €14 per person for 5h–7h.

In our comparison: #483 of 525 in Evening Desert Safaris, by rating weighted by review volume (table below).

## Overview

You'll also get to enjoy a delicious buffet dinner, along with tea, coffee, and other drinks.
