Hydrate before you go
Drink water before pickup and carry a small bottle; desert heat and wind dehydrate faster than you expect.
Wear protective eyewear
Goggles or wraparound sunglasses keep sand out during the ride and sandboarding.
Use closed‑toe shoes
Sturdy trainers or lightweight hiking shoes protect feet during transfers, dune climbs and sandboarding.
Secure small electronics
Use a chest harness or zippered pocket for phones; sand is abrasive and can damage gear.
Sunglasses or goggles
Protects eyes from sand and intense sun during driving and sandboarding.
