A whole new dimension in desert safaris!
This thrilling luxury adventure will give your team or your clients the opportunity to experience something totally unique in the desert. Following a short briefing, your team will drive for approximately 45 minutes to the Fossil Rock Desert for dune bashing and a full day or afternoon of activities . You will compete in a variety of team challenges including including dune buggy/Quad bike relays, GPS and orienteering treasure hunt with compass and map, and desert cricket. After a sunset picnic on the dunes, you will head towards our Bedouin camp for an unforgettable evening. You have the option of travelling by camel, 4 X 4 or Hummer.
Dubai and Abu Dhabi are both in the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and no where near the Gaza Strip. Your team will be perfectly safe in the UAE.

Please note: We are not located in Dubai. We are business consultants who specialize in facilitated business team building retreats and incentive travel for companies travelling to Dubai.
If you are traveling from outside Dubai and your group has less than 40 people, we will want to provide one stop shopping and arrange your hotel, transfers, meals, meeting facilities, entertainment, and excursions. Otherwise, we will charge you a minimum of US$500 in addition to what our local alliance partner wil charge you as we simply will not
make any money just for a desert safari.
If you are a Dubai company looking for a half day strictly recreational safari, our Dubai alliance partners will deliver this session for you according to our specs. Only luxury safaris are available in the half day format and for this there is a premium price and minimum group size of 20.

In the Full Day Safari with Business Facilitation Only
|
|
Business & Brainstorming Tools
|
- Corporate Landscape Analyzer
(if pre-briefing selected)
|
- Mind Maps
- Storyboards
- Force Field Analysis
|
|
|
|
|
If your team is already familiar with these tools and using them on a regular basis, we can substitute with other tools. Alternatively, we can make the session process focused rather than tool focused. This will involve additional costs as we will require one observer/assistant facilitator per team to observe and provide feedback about group dynamics during team challenges.
