A Dialogue with the Dunes
Cozy Up on a Keshta with Traditional Arabic Coffee Amidst the Stunning Red Sand Dunes
Your Arabian desert picnic; Keshta invites you to relax in the serene desert after an adrenaline-filled day of dune bashing at the iconic red sand dunes near Riyadh. Try out thrilling activities such as quad biking and sandboarding across endless sands. As you soak in the breathtaking sandy vistas, enjoy a bonfire surrounded by rustic Arabian rugs.
You can bring some cards and board games with you, share stories as the sun sets over the dunes, offering glimpses of camels and perhaps if you’re lucky, even desert foxes and gazelles.
From thoughtfully designed seating adorned with Sadu prints to the smoky flavors of Arabic barbecue or a traditionally pressure cooked food prepared over an open fire (we highly recommend this add-on!). This Keshta is a tradition of Arab heritage rooted in togetherness.
Depending on your pickup location, begin your journey in 4x4 vehicles, getting a chance to pass by iconic landmarks like Kingdom Tower and Al Faisaliah Tower. Soak in the gradual shift from cityscapes to quiet suburban areas and open desert. Pass by Traditional camel farms along the route, keep an eye out for herds of camels grazing or crossing the roads. Watch the changing shades of sand, from pale yellow to vibrant red, take in the desert vegetation like shrubs and acacia trees.
