The Experience
Before You Go
Book morning departures
Tours run early to avoid extreme daytime heat—choose the earliest slot possible for comfortable temperatures and better light for photos.
Sun protection is non-negotiable
Wide-brim hat, SPF 30+ sunscreen and sunglasses protect you from strong desert sun even in winter mornings.
Mind the camel rules
Children under five are not permitted on camels — plan for a supervising adult to stay at the village if needed.
Bring a small daypack
Carry water, a camera, and any personal items; pockets on the vintage vehicle are limited and sand can get everywhere.
