Dubai Desert Safari

in travel •  5 years ago  (edited)

Hi Steemians

This is the Dubai Desert Safari. We did some research before booking. There are 3 well known companies. We finally chose Platinum Heritage. This one is the most expensive of the 3. But has better desert camp and food, and not as crowded as the other 2. But the other 2 have dune bashing activity, and platinum heritage doesn't. As they believe it is bad for environment.

And you get better photos as the sand is protected and not bashed

When we arrived at the desert we were driven by a vintage Landrover by our Guide

There are desert animals living on the desert

There is also a hotel in the middle of the desert, depending on the package you pay for you can choose different activities

There is also a falcon show

This is traditional UAE dance, the other company has belly dancing which is not from UAE

There is also camel riding activity at the camp

The kids enjoy this the most, and you can ride as many times as you want

Dinner is served. There is also camel meat, but the camels are different, there are 3 grades if camels i think, top 1 is racing camel, and the pet camel that we were riding. And the meat camel. The one for food.

There are other side activities like tatooing

We were picked up from our hotel lobby and dropped off back to the hotel when the tour finished. It costs double than the other 2 companies but probably half less crowded, better camp, better food and better tour guide, and better looking sand, minus dune bashing and belly dancing. Everyone's preference is different but i was very happy with my choice,

Thank you Platinum Heritage
