The second one sounds pretty wrong! These ones are also correct: → "Nach unserer Ankunft fuhren wir ziemlich erschöpft zu Doris' Haus." → "Ziemlich erschöpft fuhren wir nach unserer Ankunft zu Doris' Haus."

The first one sounds more natural. Usually temporal phrases come before modal ones in German. → https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time–manner–place
