Things to Remember – Important Tips Before Booking

To make the most of your desert safari, keep these practical tips in mind:

• Dress Comfortably: Loose, light clothing and closed shoes are best for the desert.

• Weather Consideration: Mornings are cooler, evenings offer entertainment, while winter (Nov–Mar) is the most pleasant season.

• Great for Kids & Families: Camps have kid-friendly activities and safe rides.

• Motion Sickness Alert: If you’re prone to motion sickness, inform your operator or skip dune bashing.

• Pickup & Drop-off: Most safaris include transfers from your hotel or designated meeting points.
