Sahara Arabian Desert Dinner Experience with Transport from Dubai

Summary

Depart your central Dubai hotel by air-conditioned minivan and drive toward your venue for your dinner-and-show experience, the Al Sahra Desert Resort. On the fringes of Dubai, this eco-tourism resort takes the form of a recreated Arabian fortress and amphitheater nestled in a desert oasis setting of palm-sprinkled dunes. At the heart of the resort is a delightful outdoor camp, complete with a Bedouin-style tent and cushions and tables set outdoors, all illuminated by lanterns and flame-lit torches. On arrival, enjoy a camel ride around the facilities and an Arabic coffee. Then, head to the fort and savor the magical atmosphere as you stroll to the impressive dining area. Here, enjoy a welcome drink and take your seat for the scrumptious dinner buffet and Emirati entertainment. Help yourself to the generous buffet dinner. Expect to enjoy dishes of tasty mezze, grilled fish, sizzling kebabs and more, all washed down with included sodas and mineral water. Additional drinks are available at your own expense. See the Itinerary for a sample menu. As you eat and drink, enjoy a spellbinding dinner show. Watch a breathtaking fire dance display and traditional Emirati hair dance — with women swishing their long hair — set against a soundtrack of rhythmic live music and drumming. Then, be entertained by a glittering belly dancing performance and tannura show, with whirling dervishes spinning hypnotically to music. When the show draws to a close, return to Dubai and end your experience with a hotel drop-off.
