Traveling with kids should feel easy. A family desert safari Dubai values comfort, safety, and flexible pacing—so everyone enjoys the dunes without stress. With Forever Tourism, you choose your drive style—mild or no dune bashing. We plan the best time for photos.

We take care of all the details. That includes child seats, shaded breaks, and a clear activity flow. All set against the majestic backdrop of the Arabian Desert.

How to Plan a Family Desert Safari Dubai (Step by Step)

1) Pick the Right Timing (and Beat the Heat)

  • The Sunset safari Signature is the most popular option. You arrive at the ridge 25–40 minutes before sundown. After that, you take a smooth ride to your VIP camp. There, you enjoy a plated dinner
  • The Sunrise safari offers a calm and cool experience. You can take photos at first light. The dunes are quiet and peaceful. You can also choose to upgrade to a gourmet breakfast
  • Overnight Desert safari runs from dusk to dawn, featuring stargazing, late-night tea, and sunrise silhouettes before your return.

2) Choose the Drive Style (Comfort First)

  • Mild dune drive: Smooth, playful slopes with extra photo stops.
  • Scenic no-bashing route: Stay on firm tracks, skip steep angles, and enjoy more time for portraits and camel moments.
  • Private 4×4 option: Your schedule, your pace, and room for child seats and snacks.

3) Plan Activities That Work for All Ages

  • Gentle and photogenic camel ride on a short loop; we brief kids beforehand so they feel confident
  • Sand boarding or sand sledding on low dunes with spotters; helmets available on request
  • Quick cultural stop for a falcon photo spot, depending on the venue; a family favorite
  • Pre-sunset Quad bikes or dune rides for older teens only, on marked tracks with proper safety briefings

4) Comfort & Safety You Can Feel On A Family Desert Safari Dubai

  • Licensed driver-guides with clear safety briefings and adjustable routing.
  • Child seats on request for private bookings.
  • Chilled water and soft drinks; shaded breaks in warmer months.
  • Early camp seating close to facilities, with easy stroller access.

5) Photo Tips for Parents (Fast Wins)

  • Dress in light neutrals (beige/white/denim) to pop against the dunes.
  • For silhouettes, stand on the ridge and tap the sky to lower exposure on phones.
  • Keep wipes and a spare scarf handy—sand happens, and it’s part of the fun.

6) Zones We Love for Families

  • Lahbab (Red Dunes) have taller ridges and iconic color; we use gentler lines for family groups.
  • Al Qudra is easy to access and broad horizons—great for morning loops and younger kids.
  • The Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve (DDCR) is a safe desert spot. Tour guides take you on drives to show you the animals and explain how they protect the area.
