The Best Things to Enjoy on an Overnight Desert Safari Tour
Here are the main activities to enjoy on an overnight desert safari tour:
Fun and Adventure Activities
The overnight desert safaris in Dubai are some of the best and probably the safest adventure activities for the adventurous and those who want to take their families for a casual ride. These are 4×4 dune bashing, ATV quad biking, sand boarding, and camel riding. Riding each of these is fun and awesome, I promise you that. All you have to do is listen to the tour guide and use any safety gear that the tour guide may have provided.
The length of these rides depends on the package that has been purchased. Therefore, it is advisable to ask the company the length of each ride at the time of booking.
Cultural Experiences
The overnight desert safari is not all about adventure rides; it’s much more than that. Visitors also have the chance to enjoy and experience the rich culture of the Bedouins at the campsites through various activities like dance shows, henna tattoo sessions, falconry shows, Arabic dress-up photography, and local refreshments.
The campsite facilities also vary according to the package. For the standard safari tours, there are shared camps with majlis-style seating while for VIP safari tours there are table dining, sofas, and private washrooms.
Delicious BBQ Buffet Dinner
On an overnight safari, you can also savor some delicious BBQ dinner and other local dishes to fill your appetite after exhausting activities. These dishes include starters, main course, and desserts. Some examples of these are kebabs, lamb chops, steaks, hummus with bread, shawarmas, Biryani, salads, custards, and many more. There are also many non-vegetarian items for those who are not interested in meat. Remember to inform the company about your dinner preferences when booking so they can make arrangements accordingly.
Overnight Stay at the Camp
The Benefit Of Booking An Overnight Desert Safari is that you get to spend the night and sleep in desert camps. The camps are specially arranged for night stays and have beds, blankets, and other facilities to ensure the visitors have a comfortable and relaxing experience. Visitors can also bring their tent for the night if they have any.
While staying at the camps, you can enjoy stargazing in the crystal clear skies, light up a bonfire, sing songs, revive past memories, or play games with your friends and loved ones. All these make up for a memorable tour.
Preparing for the Overnight Safari Tour
Follow these tips when preparing for the overnight safari tour:
- Bring jackets and shawls for the tour because it gets chilly at night in the desert. Even though day temperatures are hot, night temperatures are the opposite.
- Pack essential items like a camera with extra batteries or a mobile phone power bank for photography sessions. Also, bring motion sickness medicine in case someone feels sick or gets stomach upset during bumpy safari rides.
- Arrange a pick-and-drop service from the tour company at a designated location and time in the city for your convenience. Be prepared to reach the location at the discussed time to avoid any inconveniences later on.
