Desert Picnic in Dubai

A desert picnic in Dubai offers a unique and memorable experience for those looking to enjoy the natural beauty and tranquility of the Arabian Desert while indulging in luxury and comfort. The vast, golden dunes provide a stunning backdrop for an unforgettable outdoor experience.

Dubai's surrounding desert areas are known for their pristine dunes stretching for miles under the clear sky. Pathfinder offers ideal picnic locations. A sunset desert picnic in Dubai is especially popular, as the landscape transforms with stunning colors during the golden hour. The peaceful desert air and beautiful views of the setting sun create a magical ambiance for a picnic. For those seeking a more peaceful and unique experience, we offer stargazing picnics, where you can relax and observe the stars in the clear desert sky after sunset. Camel rides, sandboarding, and dune bashing are common activities that can be included before or after the picnic. You may have the chance to go on a thrilling off-road drive over the dunes or enjoy a serene camel ride to get to your picnic spot.

Dubai’s desert is a playground for thrilling adventures and unique experiences that blend both tradition and modernity. From adrenaline-pumping activities to serene desert explorations, here are a few of the top desert activities we offer:

• Dune Bashing (4x4 Off-Roading): Dune bashing is one of the most popular desert activities in Desert Picnic in Dubai. This thrilling experience involves riding in a 4x4 SUV as it speeds over the dunes, climbing, descending, and drifting at high speeds. Our professional drivers skilled in off-roading take you on an adrenaline-filled ride through the desert landscape.
• Camel Riding: Camel rides offer a slower, more traditional way to explore the desert. You can take a scenic ride atop these gentle animals, often guided by local Bedouins, and experience the desert as travelers did centuries ago.
• Sandboarding: In sandboarding riders strap into a board and glide down the steep slopes of the dunes, enjoying the thrill of sliding over the golden desert sands.
• Quad Biking: When thinking of desert picnic in Dubai, Quad biking offers an exciting, self-driven adventure memory. You'll get to ride an all-terrain ATV (All-Terrain Vehicle) across the dunes, with plenty of space to speed and enjoy the sand's shifting contours.
• Desert Safari (Evening and Morning): A desert safari is a curated experience that combines dune bashing, camel rides, sandboarding, and more. We arrange morning safaris for those who want to experience the desert at sunrise and evening safaris that often include a traditional BBQ dinner, belly dancing, tanoura dance, and Arabic entertainment under the stars.
• Falconry: Experience one of the oldest traditions in the Arab world – falconry. You can watch trained falcons and other birds of prey perform amazing feats, or even try holding a falcon on your arm.
• Stargazing: The desert’s clear skies offer ideal conditions for stargazing. We offer a stargazing experience, complete with telescopes, where you can gaze at planets, constellations, and the Milky Way.
