8 days.
Light-to-moderate fitness: must handle multi-hour drives, short guided walks, and a camel ride across dunes.
The itinerary is private and adaptable; it includes long drives but minimal technical activity—suitable for most ages if mobility allows and medical concerns are discussed in advance.
