Tips for Dubai Desert Safari

Wear Comfortable Clothing:
During the day, it can be quite hot in the desert, but at night it can get cold. Lightweight, breathable garments should be worn, but throw in a light jacket for the evening. Closed shoes are recommended, especially if you want to participate in activities such as camel rides or sandboarding.
Stay Hydrated:
Desert heat is very intense, so drink sufficient water throughout the day, particularly if you plan to go for a morning safari. Most tour operators will provide you with water, but it is better to carry some extra just in case it runs out. 
Don't Forget Your Sunscreen
The sun can be brutal in a desert area, so apply before your trip if it is a daytime safari. Sunglasses and hats also protect you from the sun's rays.
Choose the Right Safari Type:
There are very many types, such as family safaris, adventure safaris, and luxury safaris. If you want more thrill, dune bashing, quad biking, and sandboarding should do the trick. Camel rides, stargazing, and cultural dinners would be your options for a relaxing form of safari.
Arrive Early:
Sunset will usually coincide with evening safaris, so coming early will allow you to view the scenic beauty before it gets dark. This also allows for all activities to be enjoyed without rush.
Consider your motion sensitivity:
Your sensible sensitivity to motion should be made known to your tour operators before dune bashing since there may be people who are motion-sensitive travelers themselves. Some more import mobilities are told here in a less intense experience among the dunes.
Own Culture:
The desert safari Dubai indeed adopts a more local flavor. This should be observed in all their traditions, especially with regard to interacting with Bedouin guides or witnessing cultural performances. Modest dressing should also be observed, especially when dining in traditional ways.
Take Your Camera:
Capture the majestic scenery of the desert, and do not forget to take your camera. Make sure to picture the sunset as it shines across those vast sand dunes and capture every moment that is unlike any other ride, whether it be on a camel or during a cultural performance.
Book Early:
Desert safaris are among the most demanded for tourists. Hence, it would be good to book early to guarantee a good date-time combination for your desired tour. Most operators offer hotels to pick up from, making this activity most convenient.
Consider a Private Safari:
This is relevant for families or couples who would want a more private experience individualized but are not hermit-like and enjoy being in a group of people.

Activities to do in Dubai Desert Safari

Bashing the Dune:
While in the planning stages of organizing a desert safari, a 4x4 will be used to drive the travelers up and down sand dunes by an expert driver. The whole thrill of going fast up a sand dunes and then down again can prove to be exhilarating while also yielding good resultant photo opportunities.
Camel Riding:
It is the most archaic form of travel by desert—riding a camel. It can turn out to be an enjoyable activity as it offers the unprecedented chance to sink into Bedouin culture and bask in the calmness of the desert surroundings.
Sandboarding:
If you are an adventure lover, this is for you. Sandboarding would take you down the slope of the sand dunes on a board like snowboarding, but instead of snow, you have sand. That's why it becomes the most enjoyed tourism form on the landscape.
Quad Biking:
For someone who would like to experience something more personally in the desert, quad biking becomes an extremely common activity. Hop in on that powerful all-terrain vehicle and blast through some dunes, discovering a new adventure and exploring the largest desert at your own leisure pace.
Falconry:
Understanding the art of falconry is well and truly into the fine history of the Emirates. The majestic falconflies harmoniously into the heavens, or perhaps an active participant in the displays. 
Stargazing: The stars adorn themselves to the nighttime sky of an empty desert. Now it exists as a stargazing experience that can be far removed from the pollution of big cities as well. 
Traditional Bedouin Camp Experience: 
The end of most safaris is an excursion to a Bedouin-type camp, where you are free to chill out and take in the feel of traditional elements. Some of the activities might include Henna painting, smoking shisha, or just letting one soak up cultural performances live, like belly dancing and tanoura dances. 
Cultural Shows:
Join the evening safari tour with live performances like belly dancing, tanura dances (Egypt's indigenous folk dance), and drum performances, which introduce the audience to local cultures.
A Picture of the Sunset: 
A setting sun transforms the desert into one of the most beautiful sights of sunset offers. Capture the golden dunes and vibrant sky, as they are perfect for photographers and nature lovers alike. 
Traditional Arabian Dinner: 
At the end of the safari, indulge in a sumptuous barbecue dinner composed of traditional Arabian dishes, including grilled meats, hummus, and tabbouleh, among other dishes. It's a pure desert dining experience underneath the stars. 
VIP Experiences:
Things get even fancier for those who enjoy the luxury, as numerous tour operators now include VIP safaris, offering one-vehicle shuttles, exclusive dining, and personal entertainment packages.

The budget for a trip can vary greatly depending on the destination, duration, accommodation choices, activities, and personal preferences. Researching average costs, including accommodation, transportation, meals, and attractions, will help you estimate your budget more accurately.

The essential travel documents usually include a valid passport, visas (if required), airline tickets, hotel reservations, travel insurance, and any necessary identification cards. It's always a good idea to make copies of these documents and store them separately as a backup.

Egypt is famous for its ancient historical sites. Some of the must-visit attractions include the Pyramids of Giza, the Sphinx, Luxor Temple, Karnak Temple, Valley of the Kings, Abu Simbel, and the Egyptian Museum in Cairo.

The best time to visit Egypt is during the cooler months of October to April when temperatures are more comfortable for exploring the historical sites. However, if you're interested in diving in the Red Sea, the summer months offer warm waters and excellent visibility.

When visiting religious sites such as mosques or temples, it's important to dress modestly out of respect. Both men and women should have their shoulders and knees covered. It's also advisable for women to carry a scarf to cover their hair if needed.

The best months to enjoy the Middle East tours are generally April and May, or October and November, however this can vary depending on where you're traveling and what you want to do. Temperatures are normally pleasant rather than extremely hot during certain hours, though crowds may be strong at some attractions.

The most prevalent mode of transportation is by bus. In the absence of this, you'll typically find shared taxis or tourist buses running routes to major sights (such as Petra in Jordan). While flying is the shortest way to travel between Middle Eastern destinations.

If you wish to take a big tour of the Middle East, you should plan at least a 10-day itinerary of Middle East Packages to allow ample time in each country. You may also need to allow extra time to go from one location to another due to security and border crossings between countries.
