The camp combines dinner with evening entertainment, including belly dancing and fire shows.
Family care

One family specifically praised the vehicle as clean, spacious and comfortable for the longer drive.
Sunset views
The desert stop and sunset views add a quieter scenic moment alongside the adrenaline activities.

Tips for a Better Visit
Check inclusions. Confirm whether ATV riding is included in your package: one group paid extra because it was not part of its initial booking.
Set buffet expectations. If dinner variety matters, ask what the premium buffet includes before booking; one guest found its main course limited.
Ask about photos. If you want memorable group shots, ask whether your driver can take photographs; one review specifically mentions this help.
Consider children. Families can look for a package with several activities, as reviewers said children enjoyed the rides and camp experience.

The Bottom Line
Arabian Red Sand is a desert safari operator in Business Bay, with the classic Dubai combination of dune bashing, camel rides, sandboarding and an evening camp. Reviews make the guided driving the standout: passengers describe exciting runs across the dunes, balanced with clear attention to safety and comfort. The itinerary can stretch well beyond the drive itself.
Guests have mentioned ATV outings, a desert stop for an hour of exploring and sunset watching, dinner, belly dancing and fire shows. Families appear well catered for; one review says staff took great care of a child, while another says the kids especially enjoyed camel and ATV rides. Vehicles have also been described as clean, spacious and comfortable.
There are two practical caveats. ATV riding was an extra charge for one group because it was not included in their original package, so check the inclusions before booking. Dinner reviews are mostly positive, but the premium buffet drew a specific complaint about having only two chicken barbecue main-course options, with plain salads, fruit and desserts.
If food variety matters, ask what is being served that evening. Overall, this suits visitors wanting a structured, activity-filled desert outing with organised transfers and camp entertainment rather than a quiet, minimal desert visit.
