No trip to the Arabian Peninsula is complete without venturing into the desert. Activities range from sandboarding and camel rides to stargazing in the quiet dunes. One of the most popular excursions is a Desert safari Dubai, which combines dune bashing in 4x4 vehicles with cultural activities like traditional dance performances and local cuisine. Similar adventures can also be found in Oman’s Wahiba Sands or Saudi Arabia’s Rub’ al Khali, known as the Empty Quarter.
