Top 5 Adventure Activities to Try on a Desert Safari Tour
Read on to learn about 5 best adventure and thrilling activities to participate on desert safari for a memorable experience:
Dune Bashing
Dune bashing is the most popular desert safari activity without any question. Here, a professional guide drives a 4×4 Landcruiser or a similar vehicle on difficult and bumpy desert terrain at high speeds, while you sit back strapped to your seatbelt and enjoy the ride.
The experience is similar to riding a roller coaster; you also witness the vastness of the desert and its beauty. Check out some of the best scenic spots in the region on the ride and remember to take your camera along to capture the whole ride. You can even drive the Landcruiser on a Ramadan Self Drive Desert Safari Tour package.
People with heart problems or pregnant women should refrain from participating in such rides.
Quad Biking
Another popular adventure activity to do on a desert safari is ATV quad biking. These are specially designed to be driven on tough desert surfaces and their four-wheel structure provides more stability on the ground. The experience of driving them in vast deserts at high speeds while tackling your way around bumps, and sharp turns is truly unmatched.
If driving for the first time, remember to take beginner classes and understand their controls.
Follow the safety guidelines given by the tour operator and drive at a safe speed limit to avoid accidents.
Sandboarding
Similarly, to snowboarding, sandboarding is an adventure sport you can try on a desert safari. It is conducted on tall dunes rather than on snowy slopes. It involves strapping a board to the bottom of the participant’s feet and sliding down sandy terrains in the desert. Instructors are often on-site to offer basic instruction to beginners of all ages and skill levels. The challenge of balancing and maneuvering a board is part of the excitement of sandboarding.
Hot Air Balloon Rides
A hot air balloon ride at a height of 3000 ft over Dubai deserts is surely a magical and exciting experience. Well, it’s not thrilling compared to previous activities but surely we can consider it an adventure because viewing the desert from such a staggering height is an incredible experience.
Take your camera along to capture desert views from the sky and against the backdrop of tall skyscrapers in the city.
Camel Riding
Camel riding in Dubai is a traditional way to explore the desert landscape compared to quad bikes/land cruisers and provides a more relaxing experience. Climb aboard a camel and travel across the dunes. Participants gain a deeper understanding of Arabic cultural heritage through camel riding.
Conclusion
These are the top 5 adventures you can participate in on Dubai Desert Safari Tours for a memorable and exciting experience on your vacation. All the activities are conducted under strict safety guidelines. Everyone can take part in them regardless of their skill level.
