Slow down and experience the desert the traditional way on this gentle 4-hour camel trekking desert safari. There is no high-speed dune bashing on this tour. Instead, the focus is on a peaceful 45-minute guided camel caravan trek across the golden dunes of Al Khatim, a Bedouin farm visit, and sandboarding.
Choose between a morning departure at 8:00 AM (returns by 12:00 PM) or an afternoon departure at 3:30 PM (returns by 7:30 PM). Your 4x4 transfer takes you to the camel staging point, where experienced Bedouin handlers lead you on camelback through quiet, rolling dunes.
After your trek, visit a working camel breeding farm where you can feed baby camels and hold a trained hunting falcon for souvenir photos. Relax under a shaded heritage tent with Arabic coffee, fresh dates, tea, and cold drinks. Sandboarding equipment is available nearby for anyone who wants to try the slopes.
Specifically designed for families with young children, pregnant guests, seniors, and anyone who prefers a calm, cultural desert experience without the bumpy 4x4 ride. Shared and private vehicle options are available at checkout.
