A Private Desert Safari Dubai tour offers a ton of fun and excitement for those who are looking to escape city surroundings, go somewhere peaceful to relax, and try something unique. On a desert safari tour, you get to experience thrilling adventures combined with cultural insights that will surely leave you with fond memories.
However, if this is your first time going on such an exciting trip, there are a few things to keep in mind. You need to know how to book a VIP Desert Safari trip, what steps to follow, and what booking options you have to choose from. To help you in this regard, here is a brief guide on how to reserve a desert safari trip in Dubai.
What is the Desert Safari Tour?
The desert safari tour in Dubai is the blend of several activities that create the perfect blend of adventure, excitement, and culture. The desert safaris are organized in the desert landscape that surrounds the city which is more peaceful and less crowded. The desert is discoverable by 4×4 dune bashing rides, quad bikes, and camel rides.
However, if you don’t fancy adventure, you can as well choose to remain at a campsite and interact with the local people. You will have the opportunity to watch a dance show and taste the local BBQ that the locals prepare. Moreover, desert photography, sightseeing, and sunset/sunrise views are all part of the experience while you are there. Therefore, to everyone’s satisfaction, there is something for everyone irrespective of their tastes.
How to Book a Desert Safari Tour in Dubai?
Usually, if you are in Dubai on a guided tour, the agency will organize the safari tour for you rather than you doing it yourself. While tour companies can help you with the planning and booking process, you can also book online through mobile apps or reputable tour company websites if you are visiting on your own. Here are simple steps to follow:
Research for a Top-Rated Tourism Company
Check out online reviews of different companies and pick the one with good ratings and feedback from clients. You can also ask your friends and relatives for their recommendations if they have already been to Dubai and done the safari tour. They can recommend a brand if they like it.
Find the Package and Price Range
When you have chosen a tour company, you can visit its site or call it to find out what packages it offers and their prices. Most companies offer their packages in the morning, evening, and overnight, which usually last 5-7 hours at different times during the day.
Make sure that you do your pricing by checking if it is within your budget range. You may also tailor your desert safari tour to either include or exclude some activities for your pleasure. For example, a Quad Bike Rental Tour In Dubai Desert Safari activity is an optional activity that costs extra, and if you are not a fan of adventure, you can choose it not to include it in the package. Alternatively, we offer a pickup/drop off service if you don’t have your own transport.
In addition, other firms offer discounts for groups of six to seven people, special events, and public holidays. Ensure you check if there are any such deals available.
Book the Tour Online and Make the Payment
Once you have selected your desired safari package, you can make a reservation on the desired date and time and pay for it as well. It’s best to make a reservation at least 5-6 days in advance. Most companies accept online bank payments and credit card transactions.
The tour operator will inform you (usually through WhatsApp) when they will meet you at your hotel on the day of the safari tour.
Read The Terms and Conditions of the Tour
At the time of booking, remember to read the company’s terms, conditions, and policies to avoid any confusion later on. Also, see if they have certain age restrictions and what their return and cancellation policies are.
Most companies offer free cancellation and a 100% refund if you cancel within 24 hours of booking.
Preparing for the Desert Safari Tour
After you are done with your booking process, you need to start preparing for the tour. Here are a few things to follow:
- Consider wearing clothes made from natural materials like cotton and linen, and avoid synthetic materials. You are in the desert and it is hot but the temperature drops at night when the sun goes down. Therefore, it is better to wear a long-sleeved top. If you are going to ride a quad bike or a camel, you can wear light trousers.
- Make sure you have sunglasses, sunblock, a hat, or a traditional head scarf with you. Whether you are riding a quad bike, surfing, sandboarding, or just walking through the dunes, the mask will keep your face clean from the sand.
- It is recommended that you do not eat anything 2-3 hours before the safari to avoid feeling nauseated while dune bashing. If you have a disease, you should also take medicine before riding.
- Remember to carry your camera gear to snap the spectacular desert scenery and unforgettable moments of the tour. If this is your first time in the desert, your guide can better tell you where the most scenic spots and locations are that you can visit and photograph.
Conclusion
Dubai Desert Safari Tours are quite popular among tourists and locals alike. So, if you are here on vacation, remember to add the tour to your itinerary. Follow the booking instructions we have explained above, and we guarantee that you will find your desired tour and package easily. On the day of the tour, remember to follow your guide’s instructions and wear the safety kit provided.
