Good to know

Questions, answered

How fast will I get my price and pickup time?

Usually within minutes during working hours. Our team confirms your package, total price and exact pickup time on WhatsApp.

Where do you pick up from?

Premium 4x4, VIP and private safaris include door-to-door pickup from hotels and residences in Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman. Budget packages use shared meeting points.

Is dune bashing safe for kids or elderly guests?

Dune bashing isn't recommended for pregnant women, infants under 3, or guests with back or heart conditions. We offer private soft-drive and direct-to-camp options so everyone can enjoy the camp.

Is the food halal? Do you have vegetarian options?

Yes. All BBQ buffets are 100% halal, with a wide selection of vegetarian dishes. Tell us about allergies when booking.

Are quad bikes and dune buggies included?

Camel rides, sandboarding and camp entertainment are included. Quad bikes (from AED 150) and dune buggies are optional add-ons.

What should I wear?

Loose, comfortable clothes and sandals or sneakers. From November to March, bring a light jacket — the desert gets cool after sunset.
