The morning safari includes all the core desert adventure activities:
Dune Bashing (30-40 minutes):
This is the highlight for most people. Your experienced driver takes you on an exhilarating 4x4 ride over, around, and down the desert dunes. It's like a rollercoaster on sand—thrilling, slightly scary, and ridiculously fun. The morning sand conditions are actually perfect for this.
Sandboarding:
You get a board and slide down the dunes. It's like snowboarding but on sand. Easier than it looks, harder than it seems, and way more fun than you'd expect. You can go multiple times until you're satisfied (or tired).
Camel Riding:
Traditional desert transportation. You'll ride a camel for a short trek—enough to say you did it and get photos, not so long you're uncomfortable. The camels are well-trained and calm in the morning.
Photo Opportunities:
Multiple stops at scenic points for photographs. Desert landscape shots, group photos on the dunes, action shots during activities. Our guides know the good spots.
Desert Camp Visit:
Brief stop at a traditional-style camp. Get refreshments (water, soft drinks), use facilities, see Arabic coffee preparation, check out traditional setup. This is shorter than evening camps since there's no dinner or shows.
Quad Biking (Optional Extra):
Available for additional fee if you want to drive a quad bike through the desert yourself. Super fun but costs extra.
What's NOT included: BBQ dinner, live entertainment shows (belly dancing, Tanoura), henna painting. Those are evening safari features. Morning is focused on activities and adventure.
