However, before planning a desert safari ride, it is important to understand which is the best time of the year is best for this type of activity. So here is a brief guide explaining all this. Let’s get started.
Best Time of the Year of Dubai Desert Safari Tours
The time between October and March is best and most ideal for Dubai desert safari tours. The temperatures around this time are warm to cold and range between 25-30 degrees Celsius during the daytime, and at night, they drop to 15-20 degrees Celcius.
So if you want to enjoy a desert safari experience, then plan a visit to Dubai in these months. However, bear in mind that this is also the peak tourist season, and tour companies sometimes charge more. Sometimes it is difficult to get a reservation on the desired date and time, so it is better to book in advance at least 6-7 days before.
Discussing Different Seasons for Desert Safari Tours
Let’s discuss in more detail the experience of desert safari tours in Dubai:
Winter (October-February
The winter season, from December to February, is ideal for desert safari tours. As discussed the temperatures around this time are warm and therefore very ideal for enjoying outdoor activities in the desert where in summer it is unbearably hot.
Spring (March-May)
The spring months between March and May are also very suitable for desert safari tours. The temperatures remain warm to cold most of the day, and you can easily spend quality time exploring deserts and enjoy safari activities like dune bashing, quad biking, and camel riding.
The Evening Safari Tours Are Very Famous during these months because they offer the most activities to enjoy and participate in at affordable costs.
Summer (June-September)
The summer months are not ideal for desert safari tours because the temperatures range between 40 and 45 degrees Celsius during the day. Those who are not accustomed to these conditions should avoid these tours. However, you can still book overnight safari tours and enjoy exploring the desert and cultural experiences at campsites when temperatures are lower and bearable.
Also, the summer is the off-peak season, and desert safari Dubai package prices are lower so you can get the best deals and save a lot of money as well.

- Wear comfortable clothes: Remember to wear lightweight and comfortable clothes for your desert safari tour. Wear something made from cotton or linen such as T-shirts, tops, trousers or shorts. Avoid wearing synthetic clothes as they don’t keep you cool or allow passage of air.
As for the footwear we recommend wearing shoes/boots that fully cover the feet and protect them from hot desert sand.
- Pack some essential items: Pack some essential items for the tour that might come in handy, like sunscreen lotion, a hat, and sunglasses. Also, bring a camera to capture the beautiful desert sights and memorable moments of the tour, like camel rides, dune bashing tours, and campsite dance shows.
