5 Tips For Choosing the Perfect Dubai Desert Safari Tour
Remember these 5 tips when preparing for and booking a desert safari tour:
Consider the Type of Safari Tour
The first thing to consider is which type of safari tour you want to book from the options available. In Dubai, most tour companies offer Morning, Evening, Overnight, and Private safari tours. The activities are almost the same on all these safaris just the timing and schedule differ.
The morning safaris are shorter and take place in the early hours of the day around 8-9:00 am and are an ideal choice for those who are busy during the later part of the day.
The evening safari duration is longer because it includes more activities and offers more cultural experiences. These tours take place in the late evening around sunset which varies depending on the season.
The overnight safari is an extension of the evening safari and here the guests have the opportunity to enjoy desert nighttime camping and set up a camp bonfire.
The private safari offers a more exclusive experience. Here the guests have a separate 4×4 vehicle reserved for their group compared to the safaris where they might have to share with other people.
So you have plenty of options to choose from.
Book From a Well-Reputed Company
Always book your desert safari package from a well-reputed tour company that is known for its exceptional services. Read online reviews and take recommendations from other people who have been on safari tours when choosing a tour company.
Never book from a company with negative reviews because chances are you might not have a good experience.
Budget and Tour Prices
Also, take into consideration the budget you have in mind for a safari and the prices tour companies offer. You don’t need to spend too much on a safari that your budget runs out and can’t get to enjoy other activities Dubai offers.
For groups with six or more persons, many companies offer discounts and special deals see if you can grab one of those deals and save some money.
Add Pick and Drop Service
If you are not from Dubai and don’t have a conveyance then it is probably the best idea to add a pick-and-drop service to your desert safari package. Tour companies offer these services for the convenience and comfort of their guests. At the time of booking the safari tour make sure to discuss it with the tour operator regarding pick-up time and location to avoid any confusion later on.

Know Your Physical Limits
Some of the activities in desert safari tours are quite exhausting like dune bashing, quad biking, and sandboarding. If you have any health concerns or feel that these might not suit you then customize the package and go for relaxing activities like camel riding, campsite entertainment shows, and photoshoot sessions at the popular desert spots.
