Fantastic place just one hour far from Dubai! This is a great spot to go, especially at darkness. It’s somewhat difficult to find however worth going there. They offer a barbecue and different tasty food, non-alcoholic drinks and plenty of seating areas, all outside. On top you can do a camel ride and receive a henna tattoo. Highlight is a show with music, belly dance and also a breathtaking fire show. It gives you an idea of the Arab culture and is definitely worth a visit!

Good desert camp. Food was nice and sufficient. Felt the music system and sound needs improvement; it would have improved the overall experience during fire dance.

We did the Desert Safari with the buggies and dune bashing - was such an amazing experience. We went in October and the weather was perfect, not too hot. The Fort was the last place we were taken, for food and entertainment, WHAT A PLACE! Must do if you’re visiting Dubai

We availed the AED 100/- per head package, which includes a dinner buffet, henna, camel riding, archery, and bonfire (worth AED 65/-) — plus belly dancing shows that bring life to the night. 🌵🔥 Perfect for the winter season and highly recommended for a fun and authentic desert experience! 🌙🐪

Hands down the best desert experience in Dubai! Fort Lisaili exceeded all expectations. From the moment we arrived, the staff’s professionalism, friendliness and genuinely warm hospitality made us feel incredibly welcome. They were especially wonderful with children, going above and beyond to ensure everyone had an amazing time. The ambience is truly unique—relaxed, immersive yet also magical. You genuinely feel like you’re in the heart of the desert, completely secluded from city life. Yet it’s less than an hour’s drive from major Dubai locations. It’s the perfect escape. The buffet impressed us with its variety and quality—everything was delicious and the hygiene standards were excellent. In addition to the super friendly staff, what really stood out was the entertainment: fantastic variety, classy and so much fun for the whole family. Considering everything included, The Fort Lisaili is exceptional value for money. We couldn’t have asked for a better desert experience. A special mention to Khaled and Angelo, who truly made our visit unforgettable with their outstanding service and attention to detail. We’ll definitely be back!
