While in Dubai be sure to get the full desert experience. Tours are offered by several operators, so it is possible to choose one tailored to your personal tastes and time constraints. An overnight safari commences during the day, with a trip in an all-terrain vehicle through the sand dunes. Sleep under the desert night sky at a Bedouin style campsite, waking up to a panoramic view of the desert. Be sure to look out for camel farms, or take a dip in one of the dry riverbeds.

A Mountain Safari is also an opportunity to view the stunning coastline. Moving inland at Ras Al Khaimah, and through the Hajar Mountains, this route also cuts through farming villages. The route is usually completed by a stop at the Masafi Market. Lovers of 'The Arabian Nights' will also enjoy an East Coast Safari which travels to Al Dhaid, a picturesque oasis town. Moving on to Dibba and Khorfakkan, the tour also takes in a visit to the oldest mosque in the Emirates and a break at the Friday market, a great spot to pick up pottery and handmade carpets.
