Hydrate before and during the trip
Bring at least 1 liter of water per person and sip regularly—the desert dehydrates faster than you’ll notice.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sand gets hot and shifts underfoot; closed shoes and a lightweight long-sleeve layer protect against sun and sand.
Prepare for motion
Dune bashing is thrilling but bumpy—if you’re prone to motion sickness, take medication beforehand and sit in the middle of the vehicle.
Respect local customs at the camp
Dress modestly in the dining and performance areas and always ask before photographing people, especially performers.
Sunscreen (SPF 30+)
High sun exposure during late afternoon; prevents sunburn when light clothing isn't enough.
