A Camp Built for Families

Family safari camps are set up to give children space to explore safely. Dedicated kids' activity areas keep little ones entertained while parents enjoy shisha, henna and the live entertainment shows.

The lite dune bashing route is specifically designed for families — the same red dunes, the same excitement, just at a pace that feels safe and fun for children of all ages. Guides are experienced with family groups and know exactly how to manage the pace for different age groups in the same vehicle.
