VIP Land Cruiser on a VIP desert safari in Abu Dhabi: VIP Desert Safari Abu Dhabi: Is the Upgrade Worth It?

Quick answer: What you get with a VIP desert safari in Abu Dhabi, how it differs from the standard evening safari and who should upgrade.

The VIP desert safari sits between the standard evening trip and a fully private tour. It suits guests who want a smoother, more relaxed experience. Our VIP Desert Safari starts at AED 199 per person.

What changes with VIP

  • A more premium camp setting and seating
  • A calmer, more comfortable evening
  • The same core highlights: dune bashing, camel ride, dinner and shows

Who should upgrade

Couples, families with grandparents and anyone celebrating. If you mainly want the lowest price, the shared safari is better value.

VIP with adventure

What a VIP evening feels like

The programme keeps the core highlights, but the pace and setting feel calmer. Seating, service and the camp atmosphere are a step above the standard evening safari, so you spend less time queuing and more time enjoying yourself.

Who it is perfect for

Couples marking an occasion, parents travelling with grandparents, honeymooners and anyone who wants to avoid the busier shared set-up. It is also a good middle path if a private 4×4 feels more than you need.

What to ask before booking

  • What exactly is upgraded: seating, camp area, vehicle or all of these?
  • Is hotel pickup included?
  • Are the shows the same as in the standard camp?

Make it your own

If you love the idea of VIP but also want the thrill of riding, the VIP + ATV package combines both. Our romantic safari ideas show how VIP works well for couples. Contact us to reserve your date.
