Questions

What do I actually get with VIP?

You sit on sofas close to the stage instead of at dinner tables, and refreshments are unlimited all evening. Henna is included. The dunes, food and shows are the same as the standard safari.

Is VIP worth the extra AED 35?

It is if you care about a comfortable seat and a clear view of the shows. If you mainly want the dunes and dinner, the standard evening safari covers that.

Is the VIP car private?

No. VIP and VIP Quad use a shared 4x4. Only the Luxury Private package gives you your own car and driver.

Can children join the VIP safari?

Yes. Children aged 3 and over pay the adult price. One infant under 3 rides free per booking, and any more pay the child price.
