Have the option to choose a morning tour without dinner and a show or to choose an evening tour with dinner and a show. Pick from private and shared transfer options.

Cross the red sands and dunes of Lahbab in a thrilling dune bashing ride in a 4x4 vehicle before admiring the sun setting over the sands. Take a photo of the Bedouins as they cross the desert with their camel trains. Continue to a desert camp to benefit from a host of activities like henna painting, sandboarding, shisha smoking, camel riding, and getting your picture taken with a falcon. Cross the sands on camelback and experience the "ships of the desert" first-hand or try your hand at sand boarding down the dune for the ultimate adrenaline rush.

Our guide was very nice, paid special attention to the children and was considerate. All in all, there was a lot on offer, but everything was done very quickly. The activities themselves were good, bu (Read More)t everything was very pressed into time and there was absolute mass processing. What I found annoying in the camp was that it was all about selling. Photos with a falcon - for a minimal surcharge. Photos of camel riding - again not included, which are completely overpriced and of terrible quality. Jewelry sellers, perfume and oil sellers who come to the table even though you are eating. 👎🏽 and so on. Unfortunately, there was no time to enjoy the moment during the fixed mass processing. There was also not enough time to use the included offers, as the queue took up the entire short time. Tip: less is more or organize something differently during the quad time. Quite a lot of dead time was lost.

Lots of fun even as it was short. But surprising how much you can do in a couple of hours. The guide was very friendly, fun and knowledgable. Highly recommended.
