I still remember the date — 15th February, when I went for a camel ride in the Dubai desert. The sun was setting and the sky was painted with hues of orange and pink. The experience was nothing short of magical. We booked our tour with a reputable company and our driver, Abdul, was quite knowledgeable about the desert and its history.
Getting to the Desert
So, we started our journey from Sheikh Zayed Road, and it took us around an hour to reach the desert. Honestly, the journey was quite smooth and Abdul was a great driver. We passed by the Global Village and took a short break at a petrol station near Al Ain Road.

Other Desert Activities
Here's the thing: there's more to the desert than just camel riding. You can also try dune bashing, which is a thrilling experience, or simply relax in a camp and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. We opted for the Luxury Desert Safari package, which included all these activities and more.
Tips and Precautions
So, if you're planning to go for a camel ride in the desert, make sure to wear comfortable clothes and carry plenty of water. It's also a good idea to book your tour in advance, especially during peak season. You can also combine your desert tour with a visit to the Burj Al Arab, which is a great way to experience the luxury of Dubai.
