Private desert dining in Mleiha
Your own table in the dunes, or a four-course evening at the camp — approximately 45–60 minutes from central Dubai.
Private dining vs. a Dubai desert safari buffet
Most “desert safari Dubai” dinners are shared buffets at busy, high-volume camps. This is a private setup in Mleiha National Park, Sharjah — your group, your table, and open dunes. Prefer a guided group outing instead? See our desert safari in Sharjah.
Dinner at Zerzura — the four-course camp evening
Prefer the camp? Dinner at Zerzura is a heritage-inspired four-course dinner at our desert camp — a low-density, refined setting, far from the standard safari dinner camps. It is AED 350 per guest without transfer and includes live entertainment and a fire show.
Pair it with a self-drive dune buggy
Add a guided self-drive dune buggy run before dinner. The standard combo uses a shared Dubai or Sharjah transfer and the shared Dinner at Zerzura camp experience. Choose the separate buggy with a private dinner in the dunes when the complete experience needs to be private.
Made for proposals, anniversaries, and celebrations
The private dinner in the dunes is a fully private setup built for two and scaled for small groups. It is a common choice for proposals, anniversaries, and intimate celebrations.
