Self-Drive Car Desert Safari Package

The Experience

Sharjah is not only a city of modern towers and vibrant streets but also a gateway to the endless Arabian Desert. One of the most affordable ways to explore this natural wonder is the own-car desert safari from Sharjah. You simply drive your car to the designated meeting point where free parking is provided. From there, a skilled safari driver welcomes you into a Land Cruiser 4×4 and takes you straight across the golden dunes. The ride combines the thrill of off-road adventure with the warm touch of traditional Emirati hospitality, making it a perfect escape for families and travelers on a budget.

What to Expect

Your evening in the desert is more than just adventure—it’s about culture too. You can try a short camel ride, get your hands painted with henna, dress up in traditional Emirati clothing for photos, or even try sandboarding on the dunes. For those who want to unwind, the shisha lounge is a cozy spot to sit back and relax.

Dinner Under the Stars

As the evening sets in, a delicious BBQ buffet is served. From grilled meats and kebabs to fresh salads, pasta, and desserts, there’s something for everyone. While you enjoy your dinner, live performances bring the desert camp to life—belly dancing, Tanoura spinning, and a fire show that lights up the night sky. Together, they create a magical atmosphere that makes the evening truly special.

Smooth Return to Sharjah

When the night winds down, your driver will be ready to take you back. The journey home is calm and quiet, giving you time to reflect on the memories you just made. By the time you’re dropped off at your doorstep, you’ll already be wishing to come back again.
