Desert Safari
Private Morning Desert Safari With Land Cruiser 4X4
The same well-loved morning route, reserved for your group alone: your own Land Cruiser 4x4 and driver, not shared with other bookings, for AED 800 per car with up to six guests, hotel pickup and drop-off included.
3-4 hrs
Private car, up to 6
Pickup included
Al Awir, Dubai
Overview
AED 800 books a Private Morning Desert Safari With Land Cruiser 4X4 for your group alone — no other guests share your car or your driver. Pickup runs 8:30-9:00 AM and you're back by around 12:00-12:30 PM, the same roughly 3-4 hour morning as our shared AED 225 safari, but every minute of it is exclusive to your party of up to six.
Everything on the itinerary stays the same real route: 25-30 minutes of dune bashing at the Red Dunes Desert, sandboarding, a short camel ride and soft drinks, finishing with the sunrise scene before the drive back. What changes is who's in the car — your driver takes only your group out to the dunes instead of filling remaining seats with other bookings, so you can ask about shifting your pickup window and set your own pace at each stop. AED 800 for up to six people works out to roughly AED 133 each if your car is full, often close to the shared safari's per-person cost once you factor in having the vehicle to yourselves.

- Seatbelts stay on for the full dune bashing stretch, and your driver gives a safety briefing before setting off
Pickup & meeting point
Your driver collects you between 8:30 and 9:00 AM from wherever you're staying in Dubai — hotel, apartment or private residence. Because the vehicle isn't shared with other bookings, let us know your preferred time within that window when you book, and we'll confirm what's realistic the afternoon before your safari. Drop-off back at your original pickup point runs around 12:00 to 12:30 PM.
Questions About This Tour
Is the private morning safari really private, not shared with other guests?
Yes. The Land Cruiser, driver and pickup are reserved only for your booking - no other guests join your car or your stops at the Red Dunes Desert. It's a different vehicle allocation from our shared AED 225 safari, where seats are filled with other travelers.
What's the minimum and maximum group size for this private safari?
The AED 800 rate covers one Land Cruiser for up to six people, and it applies whether you're a couple or a full group of six - the price is per vehicle, not per person, so smaller groups pay the same AED 800 total.
Can I request a specific pickup time for the private safari?
Since the car isn't shared with other bookings, we have more flexibility on timing than the standard shared safari. Let us know your preferred window when you book and we'll confirm what's possible the afternoon before, though pickup generally falls between 8:30 and 9:00 AM.
How is this different from the shared AED 225 Morning Desert Safari?
The itinerary is identical - same dune bashing at Red Dunes Desert, sandboarding, camel ride and soft drinks. The difference is that the AED 225 tour fills a shared Land Cruiser with other travelers, while this AED 800 option reserves the whole vehicle and driver for your group alone, with more flexibility on pickup timing.
Is the AED 800 price per person or per vehicle?
Per vehicle. AED 800 books the entire Land Cruiser for your group of up to six, so it works out to roughly AED 133 each if you fill all six seats, or more per person for smaller groups who still get the whole car to themselves.
