Escape into the peaceful, serene surroundings of the desert landscape. Spot exotic wildlife in the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve before a delectable 6-course dinner in a chic, private desert retreat. Settle in amid the lavish decor as the bonfire blazes and you relax beneath the stars.

Your chariot for the evening is a luxurious Land Rover Defender—climb in and leave the city behind as your guide drives you across the rolling sand dunes to the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve. Watch for native desert wildlife including antelopes and wild cats, and catch an impressive falconry demonstration as the sun sinks down.

Continue on to a secluded haven in the desert where a dining area has been set up, complete with silk carpets, soft cushions, and an antique Arabic door as a table. Savor a delectable 6-course meal in this opulent setting as you sip on sparkling date juice, then take a seat by the bonfire and enjoy traditional Arabian activities—you can smoke aromatic shisha, watch Flaming Sands of Arabia, or go for an unforgettable camel ride under the stars.
