Desert Safari Dilemma

I still remember my desert safari on January 10th, it was an experience I won't forget. So, you're planning a trip to Dubai and wondering whether to opt for a morning or evening desert safari. Look, both have their pros and cons.

Morning Desert Safari

And honestly, morning desert safaris are great for adventure-seekers. You'll get to enjoy dune bashing, camel riding, and sandboarding in the cooler morning hours. But, be prepared for a bumpy ride, it's not for the faint-hearted. I paid around 150 AED for my morning safari, which included a visit to a camel farm.

Evening Desert Safari

Here's the thing: evening desert safaris offer a more relaxed experience. You'll get to watch the stunning sunset over the dunes, and enjoy a delicious Arabic feast. I ordered the shawarma, it was delicious. You'll also get to enjoy activities like henna painting and falconry. Prices start from around 200 AED per person.

Key Differences

So, what's the main difference between the two? Well, the morning safari is more action-packed, while the evening safari is more focused on relaxation and entertainment. Honestly, it depends on what you're looking for. If you're looking for a mix of both, you could consider a full-day safari, which costs around 350 AED per person.

Personal Experience

I went on a morning safari with my driver, Ali, who was very knowledgeable about the desert and its history. We stopped at a small village near Al Awir Road, where I got to try some local tea. It was a great experience, and I'd definitely recommend it to anyone visiting Dubai. After the safari, I headed to the Madame Tussauds Dubai to relax and enjoy some air-conditioning.

Practical Tip

So, which one should you choose? Well, if you're short on time, I'd recommend the evening safari. You'll get to enjoy the sunset, and still have time to explore other parts of Dubai, like the Abu Dhabi City Tour or the LEGOLAND Water Park. You can book your desert safari tour through Roamigo Trips, they offer a range of options to suit your needs and budget.
