Exhilarating - We were collected from the hotel mid-afternoon in six-seater four track vehicle It was not an open top vehicle and had air conditioning. We drove for about an hour from Abu Dhabi into the desert along the E22 highway in the direction of Al Ain. We then turned off the main highway at Al Khatim and took to a track into the desert. Our first stop was to visit a Camel Farm. This lasted for about ten minutes. To some this stop may be of interest but I found the camels ponged a bit. I would be happy to avoid this stop if I had my own way. The tyres of the vehicle were deflated to get a better grip on the sand. There were fourteen vehicles involved in the safari which were spit into groups of four vehicles. We set off in convoy Our driver was Gafook. He was very pleasant and extremely polite. He was very good at making his passengers feel relaxed and comfortable. He was very skilled in driving over the dunes. He made for a very exhilarating and exciting trip over and up and down massive sand dunes in the back end of beyond. We stopped off en route to take in the magnificent scenery before we reached our Dinner destination. This was an encampment in the middle of nowhere. I was not particularly struck with the dinner that they provided. By the time I was served the hot dishes were luke warm and tepid. Not very nice. While I appreciate that we were dining in the desert, I thought that the catering could have been better. The were two cabaret turns to keep us amused. An Arabian Belly Dancer and an Egyptian Whirling Dervish dancer. Both acts were very professional and good. There was also a Falconry Display and a chance to dress up in authentic desert clothing The trip back to the hotel took just over an hour. Apart from the standard of the catering thought the trip was good value and I am happy to recommend it to others. I suggest you take your own food with you. Allow 6 hours for this trip. Despite my observation concerning the food, I did enjoy this adventure into the Desert.
