Hydrate before and during the trip
Desert air is dry and dune bashing is dehydrating—bring a reusable water bottle and drink early and often.
Wear closed-toe shoes
Sand can be hot and shift underfoot; sturdy shoes make boarding camels and walking around camp safer and more comfortable.
Prepare for motion and dust
If you get motion sick, sit in the middle of the vehicle, look toward the horizon, and take medication beforehand; bring a bandana or mask for wind-driven sand.
Dress modestly for the camp
Evening entertainment and local customs favor modest clothing—light layers are useful for both cultural respect and nighttime chill.
Reusable water bottle
Staying hydrated is critical in arid conditions and during active dune runs.
