Full Thrilling Desert Tour in Dubai

Dubai.It's the most developing city in Middle East. The city was built on the desert. It's very famous for number of new tech and high rise buildings like Burj Dubai, City Tower, and Dynamic Tower of Dubai. Above all, Burj Al Arab, the Seven Star Hotel in Jumeirah Beach is most famous. The luxury hotel stands on an artificial island and is connected to the mainland by a private curving bridge. It'a a Must-See Item when in Dubai.



Excepting that, there is one more MUST Do item, the desert tour. It's a very thrilling and exciting experience.



The SUV car picked me up in the hotel I stayed and drove about one hour towards South from downtown Dubai. When arriving, The desert stretched on all sides as far as the eye could see.


The car had six seats for riding and, fortunately I seated in the passenger seat. About ten cars started in a group. The car started to drive up steep sand hill. It's really steep so I worried that the car is turned over. But no problem. Even some cars ware sliding back.

The level of thrilling depends on your driver. You can feel thrill more as more as the driver is lively and wild. The driver who I had was that kind of person, very wild. He drove one-handed and seemed very comfortable, looked like highway driving. Us? .. in the world-best-full-thrills roller coaster.

By the way, we got a small problem. We got a flat tire. The driver changed the tire easily with another driver following us. He said it occurred very often.

We stopped to watch the beautiful sunset before reaching our campsite where we had the opportunity to do a camel ride, sand boarding and try out a henna design on hand or feet. The sunset had an atmosphere of mystery, it's different from sunset in the beach.



After working up an appetite enjoy a delicious barbecue dinner and shisha (the famous Arabic water pipe).
