Overview
No UAE bucketlist is complete without an unforgettable desert adventure. If you're looking to steer away from the traditional desert safari, this Jeep Adventure Safari is guaranteed to do the trick. Taking you to the best hidden gems and awe-inspiring sights, this is a journey you'll be talking about or years to come.
The full-day adventure begins as our experienced safari guide picks you up from your hotel in a shared four-wheel drive Jeep. You’ll be whisked off to the awe-inspiring desert of Dubai for a day filled with exciting explorations and unforgettable experiences.
Admire the unique landscapes, as you drive across the endless desert dunes and explore beautiful wadis. Our knowledgeable safari guides are eager to inspire you with fascinating facts and spectacular stories about the desert, whilst you take in the scenic views around you.
Once you’ve reached Sharjah and the archaeologically famous area of Mleiha, it is time to explore Fossil Rock. Visible from more than 25 kilometres away, this huge rock formation is one of the most interesting natural sights in all of the Emirates. You’ll feel a world away from the hustle and bustle of the city, as you find yourself surrounded by scenery resembling that of a sci-fi movie.
Your journey continues to the nearby Mleiha Archaeological Centre, where you’ll learn about the rich history of the UAE, and what the early life in the desert looked like. The next stop will take you to Ras Al Khaimah where you’ll enjoy your time at Wadi Shawka, one of the most spectacular tourist destinations in the country. Comprising of the Wadi Shawka pools and dam, the incredible site is located in the Hajar Mountains. The historical area is home to a number of abandoned settlements which are protected heritage sites.
At the Buhais Geological Park, you can learn about local rocks and fossils. Take your time enjoying the outdoor trails complete with viewing areas, ancient burial grounds and extraordinary rock formations.
As you drive towards Wadi Al Helo, one of Sharjah’s many enclaves, you can enjoy the scenic views of the Old Kalba Road along the way. The word “helo” means sweet, so the valley, listed to become a UNESCO Heritage Site, is called The Sweet Valley. The area boasts incredible biodiversity, providing a home to several species of birds, rodents and reptiles. The valley includes awe-inspiring historical sites, such as ruins and graves as well as evidence of what life used to look like thousands of years ago.
Your adventure concludes with a picturesque lunch stop on the beautiful East Coast, where you can recap your amazing experiences, whilst enjoying a delicious lunch box provided by us.
