The Bedouin Camp Experience

Step into a traditional Arabian Bedouin camp complete with Persian carpets, cushioned seating, lanterns and the scent of oud. Our evening camps are built to give you an authentic taste of desert life while keeping you comfortable.

As the sun dips below the dunes and the stars emerge, the camp comes alive with music, movement and the warmth of a community sharing a meal together — exactly as desert travellers have done for centuries.
