A Dubai evening in the desert is one of the best ways to spend time with family and loved ones. Ride the dunes in the golden afternoon light, watch the sky fade from gold to deep blue, and finish the night under a sky full of stars.
With Al Zarra, an evening desert safari combines adrenaline and relaxation in one trip. Race across the dunes in a 4×4, enjoy live entertainment and a BBQ dinner at the camp, then unwind in the calm of the desert night.
