It was earlier built to keep an eye on new tribes and for security, but the camps in the Luxury Desert safari Dubai are built on top so that all the venomous or harmful animals are away from the camp.
- Regular Pest Control: There is regular pest control to keep the animals and insects away from the camp. It is done regularly to keep the camps clean and also to maintain the quality. Â
- Quality Check: The vehicles used in the desert are maintained with regular quality checks. The engines and machinery of Land Rovers are regularly managed and checked for quality. Moreover, the vehicles are cleaned and disinfected regularly for the guests.
- Ventilated Structure: The rooms built for the overnight stay are stone-walled camps that keep the heat away. This allows the external temperature to stay outside. Moreover, as the camp is built at the top of the dune, it also gets the wind naturally, which makes the rooms a better place to spend the night.
- Fresh Food: All the food that is served is freshly prepared with quality ingredients. You will be hungrier just by the aroma of it. Moreover, the food is prepared by trained professionals. Additionally, you must inform us about any allergies or food precautions at the time of booking.Â
- Trained Instructors: All the staff are trained to cater for the needs of your guests. They are well-versed in English and Arabic to communicate with the guests. Moreover, there are seven other 7 languages for which we can provide the staff at no additional cost.
- Hygiene Maintenance: There is proper hygiene maintained among staff, in the vehicles, in the camps and also in stay. Moreover, the food is also prepared with utmost hygiene. You will see the rules change in Ramadan as many people go on a fast.
- Pet Care: All the animals that are kept with us are properly cared for. They have massage sessions, a proper diet and rest days. These animals, like the falcon and camels, are trained by the falconers and locals properly.
Pro Tips For Luxury Desert Safari
- Dress smart and comfortable: Make sure that you wear light and breathable fabrics during the day and carry a light jacket or shawl for cooler evenings. You can opt for neutral tines as they look elegant in a photograph against the sand.Â
- Choose the right footwear: Try to wear something flat and closed so that walking in the shoes becomes relaxing. It is advised that you wear flat sandals or shoes.Â
- Time your experience well: Sunset offers the best lighting for photos, so keep your phone or camera fully charged before departure. Eat light before the dune drives to stay comfortable.Â
- Pack all the essentials: Make a list and positively carry your sunglasses, a hat and sunscreen to protect yourself from the sun. Also, you can carry a small pouch that has the things that are important for you, like the medicine, etc, for precautions. No need to overpack as all the basics like water, cold towels and refreshments are provided.
- Make the most of the photo stops: The guides will take you to some cinematic dunes that are rarely accessed by the regular tours. You can use these moments to capture some of the most epic shots and landscape pictures, especially during the golden hour.Â
- Communicate for your comfort: This is a luxury experience, so make sure that you are comfortable. The luxury vehicle already offers smooth dune drives; however, you can request a softer or a more adventurous ride.Â
- Indulge in the dining experience: Fine dining is part of the luxury charm. Get a taste of Emirati dishes and desserts. You can also form the team in advance about any dietary needs, and they will customise in the best way.
- Enjoy the camp and the calm: Relax in private seating areas and enjoy entertainment from your comfortable and reserved spot. Moreover, it is the perfect way for you to absorb the desert silence as it is an experience in an experience itself.
