You arrive at the edge of the Lahbab sands as the Land Cruiser hums and tires bite into a sea of red-gold dunes. The vehicle rocks and tilts—dunes rise like waves and the wind shapes their crests—while the guide times each charge down the slope. Sand throws light and shadow across the ridges, daring you forward; on calmer ridges a few camels stand like patient observers, silhouettes against a broad sky.
