Tour Details

  • the Lost City of Ubar, an ancient site where archaeologists used remote sensing equipment to uncover the remains of the city in 1992. Ubar was believed to be populated from 2800 BC to about 300 AD and was once an important trading center for frankincense before it was buried in the rising dunes. At the site, a small museum displays various archaeological discoveries. The region is known for its oil and archaeological sites, and the bleak, arid desert of Rub Al Khali or Empty Quarter stretches from the foothills of the mountains to an enormous sandy plain that covers much of the area.
  • Experience the thrill of driving through the breathtaking Al Hasman (Fasad) Sand Dunes, which soar to heights of over 200 meters. Witness the stunning display of colors as the dunes shift and blend together in magnificent formations, with towering slopes and delicate ridges that stretch as far as the eye can see. It’s truly a one-of-a-kind adventure that you won’t want to miss.
  • Visit Wadi ‘Dawka’ (Unesco World Heritage Site)
