Additional Information

The Liwa Overnight Camping-Empty Quarter Experience is designed for travelers seeking an authentic connection with the desert. Away from city lights, it offers tranquility, adventure, and a deep sense of peace that only the vast dunes of Liwa can provide.

Your journey begins from Abu Dhabi, traveling 160 km into the Rub Al Khali desert. Along the way, you’ll pass through small Emirati settlements and stunning landscapes. The first stop is at a camel farm, where you can interact with camels and learn about their importance in desert life. Then, a visit to the Liwa Oasis offers a glimpse of green amidst the golden dunes.

Upon reaching the campsite, your tent is set up with all essentials, comfortable bedding, lighting, and seating. As evening falls, enjoy Shisha by a bonfire while the aroma of freshly grilled BBQ fills the air. Dinner includes a rich selection of Arabic appetizers, meats, and desserts.

After dinner, lie back and witness one of the most beautiful night skies in the UAE, filled with stars. This peaceful silence and natural beauty create an atmosphere perfect for reflection or romantic getaways.

Morning brings a soft sunrise across the dunes, followed by a hearty breakfast before your return journey. The entire experience is private and operated with the highest safety standards by Travel Plan Dubai, ensuring comfort and care from start to finish.

We booked a customized 8 hours day trip for our flight stopover in Dubai. Tour Operator was very responsive. They were flexible and understanding of our time schedule and prepared itinerary according to it. It all went perfectly well, from pick-up at the hotel and the tour around the City. Our tour guide, Mr. Ashraf was very knowledgeable and helpful too. Highly recommended.

Great experience with them. Had a long layover in Dubai, and only had a few days before my flight. Contacted Travel Plan Dubai to see if they could help with the advance visa. They responded very quickly, and unlike other travel agencies who ask for money first and then talk to you, Travel Plan Dubai talked to me first about all my options, took my details and confirmed with me about visa chances and options. They applied for my visa on the same day as I made the payment and the very next day I got my approved visa. Also booked a one day city tour with them. Good tour and great communication. Will definitely recommend them.

Basheer is an excellent tour guide. We travelled to Dubai and Abudhabi for 4 days and Basheer coordinated and toured with us for the entire stay. His knowledge on various landmarks and internal routes makes him stand out from others. Highly recommend him.
