Wonderful morning camel ride and breakfast! Highly recommended!
We had a wonderful time on this tour! It was so refreshing to be out and see the beauty of the desert, meet & ride some camels, and enjoy the coffee, tea, and breakfast. Saeed (our guide & driver) was very knowledgeable and told us all about the the different things we passed on our drive out to the desert and went out of the way to swing by the beautiful Flamingo Lake for us to get some pictures there too. We also greatly appreciated Aziz (our camel guide), he was a great photographer, we handed him our phone and he took tons of pictures of us interacting with the camels. It was a lot of fun! We saw several groups of gazelles on our way there too. The drive out to the desert was in a comfortable vehicle, there was plenty of water offered along the way and the food was delicious! It could have been nice to learn a little bit more about how people lived and sourced food & water in the desert back in the day, but it was a wonderful experience overall and I'd highly recommend it. We even asked how old our kids would need to be before we could bring them to ride the camels (4 years old was the answer!).
Response from the operator: Hi Caleb, Saeed and Aziz enjoyed showing you the desert, Flamingo Lake, and the camels. Hope we see you again.

Response from the operator: Hi! Saeed was happy to guide you and create these memories with the camel ride and lunch. Great to know it felt special. Hope we see you again.

A fun morning in the desert at Al Marmoom
Al Marmoom Oasis safari experience A great morning out in the desert! Our day started with a private transfer from our hotel to the conservation site in the desert just after 7am. Our driver, Ramish from OceanAir travels, chatted with us on the way about Dubai and what to expect at the experience. Once we arrived at the location, the activities were well organised and timely. The team were attentive and did a great job. We had a short camel ride, held a falcon, ate breakfast in a tent and tried traditional dress. Then we went for a drive in the desert nearby to the camp to enjoy the scenery and to see if there were any animals about. Riding on the camel was certainly a highlight of our whole trip to Dubai and it was obvious that Nieman, the camel was well looked after by his caretaker, Zaheer. Driving along in the jeep with Ramish was also great fun with him telling us about the area, answering questions and taking many photos for us. This is a perfect experience for people who want a taster of different activities in an area specifically designed for this. Thank you to Ramish, Zeheer and the rest of the team at Al Marmoom, we really enjoyed ourselves.
Response from the operator: Hi Nicc, Ramish and Zaheer were really happy to share the camel ride, breakfast, and desert drive with you. Great to hear you enjoyed the day so much. Hope we see you again.

The Outty Ranking is a weighted composite. Here is how this experience performed on each component.
Dubai: Camel Caravan, Bedouin Breakfast with Al Marmoom Oasis: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Dubai.
How much does Dubai: Camel Caravan, Bedouin Breakfast with Al Marmoom Oasis cost?
+
Prices start at $81 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Dubai usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Dubai: Camel Caravan, Bedouin Breakfast with Al Marmoom Oasis take?
+
Plan for about 5 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Dubai is not rushed.
Is Dubai: Camel Caravan, Bedouin Breakfast with Al Marmoom Oasis worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 78 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 74 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Dubai, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Dubai: Camel Caravan, Bedouin Breakfast with Al Marmoom Oasis?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Dubai: Camel Caravan, Bedouin Breakfast with Al Marmoom Oasis suitable for kids and families?
+
The operator sets a minimum age of 3. Older children generally do well here, and families should factor in the 5-hour running time when deciding.
How far in advance should I book Dubai: Camel Caravan, Bedouin Breakfast with Al Marmoom Oasis?
+
Around 26 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Dubai can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Dubai and add a light layer if any part of the 5-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Dubai: Camel Caravan, Bedouin Breakfast with Al Marmoom Oasis start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Dubai within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Dubai?
+
On Outty we rank every Dubai experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Dubai Premium Red Dunes Safari, Camels & 5* BBQ at Al Khayma Camp, Dubai: Red Dunes Safari, Quad, Camel, Dune Bash, BBQ & Shows, Dubai Dune Buggy Safari Tour in Red Dunes Options. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Dubai?
+
Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Dubai?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
