FAQ: Everything You Need to Know About Desert Safaris
Introduction
Are you thinking about booking a Morning Desert Safari in Dubai, but have questions that need answering? Desert safaris are one of the most popular things you can do in Dubai, and it is useful to know what to expect so you can enjoy it to the fullest and not miss out.
What is a Morning Desert Safari?
A Morning Desert Safari is a tour that runs in the early hours (usually just after sunrise). This tour is perfect for those who are looking to experience the beauty and tranquillity of the desert without the afternoon heat. This tour provides you with adventure by dune driving, sandboarding, as well as the opportunity for a camel ride. A morning desert safari has an approximate duration of 3-4 hours, providing an excellent option if you have other plans in the day.
What Activities Are Included?
One of the best things about a Morning Desert Safari is that there is a variety of activities. Most packages provide the following:
- Dune Driving – This is a wonderful experience as you are taken across the dunes in a 4×4 vehicle.Â
- Sandboarding – A thrilling sports experience as you glide down the sandy slopes of the dunes on a board. Just like snowboarding, but on sand.
- Camel Ride – This may be a short experience, but one that should be taken, as it is known as the ship of the desert.
- Photo Stops – A chance to capture your moments in the desert landscape at sunrise.
Some tours may include refreshments or traditional drinks to keep you hydrated and feeling fresh during your desert safari.
What Should I Wear?
Comfortable, light clothes are essential. Loose-fitting, light coloured clothes work best as they are comfortable and keep you cool during your activities such as sandboarding. Shoes, trainers, or sandals are suitable as long as they are sand-friendly. You must not forget warm weather casuals – sunglasses and sunscreen – as the sun can feel quite strong, even at that delicate time of morning.
Is the Morning Safari Safe?
Indeed, a Morning Desert Safari is very safe when booking with a reputable company, such as Desertjourney. All drivers are professionally trained, and all vehicles are safe. If you have any medical conditions or you are pregnant, you should check with your medical practitioner first and also advise your operator.
Do I Need to Book in Advance?
Definitely! Safaris are always very popular, especially for tourists in the peak seasons. You should always try to confirm your booking a few days before your planned date, to eliminate any disappointment.
Can Children Join the Safari?
Yes, children can go; however, some activities may not be suitable for very young children, for example, dune bashing. You should check the minimum age requirement through your tour provider.
Why Choose a Morning Safari Over an Evening One?
A morning safari (if you prefer cooler temperatures or are short on time) is the best option. You can still enjoy the dunes, sunrise view, and activities without the excess heat.Â
