Protect Yourself from the Sun
Bring high-SPF sunscreen, a wide-brim hat or shemagh, and UV-blocking sunglasses—heat and reflected sand intensify sun exposure.

Secure Footwear & Clothing
Closed-toe shoes and breathable long sleeves keep sand, heat, and engine vibration from spoiling the ride.
Respect Local Customs
When visiting the Bedouin village, accept tea with both hands, follow the guide’s lead, and ask before photographing individuals or interiors.
Closed-toe hiking or trail shoes
Protects feet from sand, heat, and quad footrests while providing traction for short walks.
