An Afternoon Desert Safari is a popular activity that allows you to experience the beauty and adventure of the desert during the daytime. It offers a range of exciting activities and a chance to witness the stunning desert landscapes.
Here is what you can expect during an Afternoon Desert Safari:
1. Pick-up and Transport: You will be picked up from your designated location, usually in a comfortable 4x4 vehicle, and driven to the desert location. The journey itself can be an opportunity to enjoy the scenic views and learn more about the desert region from your knowledgeable guide.
2. Dune Bashing: One of the main highlights of an afternoon desert safari is dune bashing. Experienced drivers will take you on an exhilarating ride over the sand dunes in a 4x4 vehicle. You'll experience the thrill of driving up and down the dunes, feeling the adrenaline rush as the vehicle navigates through the sandy terrain.
3. Sandboarding: After dune bashing, you'll have the chance to try sandboarding. Similar to snowboarding, sandboarding involves sliding down the dunes on a specially designed board. Your guide will provide you with the necessary equipment and instructions to enjoy this exciting activity.
4. Camel Riding: An afternoon desert safari often includes a camel riding experience. You can hop on a camel and enjoy a leisurely ride through the desert, taking in the serene surroundings and getting a taste of the traditional mode of transportation used by Bedouins.
5. Sunset Views: As the afternoon progresses, you'll have the opportunity to witness the breathtaking sunset over the desert. The changing colors of the sky and the vast expanse of sand create a stunning backdrop for memorable photos and a serene atmosphere.
6. Traditional Entertainment and Refreshments: At the desert camp, you'll be treated to traditional entertainment such as belly dancing, Tanoura dance (a whirling dervish dance), and live music performances. You can relax and enjoy these cultural performances while sipping on Arabian tea or coffee and indulging in some local snacks.
7. Barbecue Dinner: An afternoon desert safari often concludes with a delicious barbecue dinner. You can savor a selection of grilled meats, salads, and other traditional Middle Eastern dishes. Vegetarian options are usually available as well.
An Afternoon Desert Safari offers a thrilling and enjoyable experience, combining adventure, cultural entertainment, and stunning desert landscapes. It is advisable to book through reputable tour operators who provide experienced guides, well-maintained vehicles, and ensure the safety and comfort of the participants throughout the safari.
