The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate before you go
Drink water in the hours before pickup—desert rides and evening heat can dehydrate you quickly.

Follow the Desert Marshal
Stay on the marked trails and obey the lead guide to avoid soft-sand hazards and protect wildlife.
Protect eyes and skin
Bring sunglasses and a scarf or bandana to keep sand out of your face and sunscreen for exposed skin.

Conservation Note
Operators follow marked trails and restrict off-track riding to reduce erosion and protect fragile desert flora; travelers are asked to avoid littering and to respect wildlife.
The Lahbab area sits along historical Bedouin routes connecting inland oases to coastal ports; camel travel was once the primary way to move people and goods here.
