Your own corner of the desert
A Desert Safari Private Camp gives your group an area of the camp to itself. Instead of sharing a majlis with other tours, you have your own tented lounge, seating, tables, BBQ service and a host who looks after only your guests.
It works well for family reunions, birthdays, team outings, school or company events and groups of friends who want to celebrate together. You decide the pace: arrive early for activities, bring your own cake, plan a short speech or keep it relaxed.
For a longer stay, the Overnight option adds tents with bedding, a campfire evening and a desert breakfast the next morning, so you can wake up in the dunes and drive back after sunrise.
Highlights of the Private Camp
What your group gets that a shared camp cannot offer.
Exclusive majlis tent
A shaded Arabic-style lounge with floor seating, cushions and tables kept for your group.
Private BBQ and live station
A dedicated BBQ buffet with vegetarian options, served when your group is ready.
Entertainment on request
Tanoura, belly dance and fire show can be scheduled around your group, or left out for a quieter night.
Activities at your pace
Camel rides, sandboarding, henna and traditional dress photos without queues.
Celebration setup
Bring a cake, add decorations, a banner and a sound system for birthdays and events.
Optional overnight stay
Sleep in a camp tent under the stars, with a campfire, a desert breakfast and a calm morning.

Good to know before you book
Book early
Private camps are limited. Book at least a week ahead, and earlier for weekends, holidays and groups above 20 guests.
Group planning
Tell us the number of adults, children and any guests with mobility needs so we can pick the right vehicles and seating.
Overnight comfort
Tents have mattresses and bedding. Nights are cold in winter, so bring a jumper and a light jacket.
Health and comfort
Dune driving is bumpy. Pregnant guests and anyone with back, neck or heart problems should ask for a gentler transfer.
