Things to Expect
Morning Desert Safari with Travel Saga beckons you with breathtaking sights of the desert as it takes on a golden hue through the morning sky. Escape into the tranquillity of the vast Arabian Desert. The desert basks in the glory of the sunlight as we take you on a ride across the dunes.
A truly enchanting day awaits you after we pick you up from your location in Dubai/Ajman/Sharjah. Experience the amazing contrast that a holiday in Dubai/Ajman/Sharjah offers as you leave the glamour of the glittering city behind and head for the desert, shrouded in an eerie silence. Then, admiring the beauty of the desert landscape and its flora and fauna, brace yourself for a rush of adrenaline as we take you on a 45-minute dune bashing session in a roaring 4x4 drive vehicle. Scream your hearts out as your vehicle sinks into the lows of the dunes and zooms up in minutes- an experience no less thrilling than a roller coaster ride.
Hold on, the Morning Desert Safari still has a lot more laid ahead for you that makes the experience special indeed. We usher you into a campsite inspired by the life of the enigmatic Bedouins. Together, experience the Arabian desert culture up close at the camp. If dune bashing hasn't quenched your thirst yet for thrills and adventure, go quad biking or sandboarding. Also, if you’re pining for a more relaxing activity, we won’t disappoint you either. At last, sway through the undulating desert land riding on the back of a friendly camel.

Know Before You Go
Here are some basic details that you must know before you choose the Morning Desert Safari Dubai:
Age Requirement
Kids below the age of 10 years cannot engage in this safari. Also, there are many activities that might not be safe for kids. Kids between the ages of 10 and 18 years must be accompanied by an adult above the age of 18 years.
Fitness Requirement
Women who are pregnant, people with neck or back injuries, people who have undergone an operation recently or older people cannot participate in the safari. Consult a doctor, and if they allow you, only then join the safari.
Weather consideration
The Desert is a highly weather-sensitive area. The temperature fluctuates as well. So, to take you for a desert safari, the weather must be clear. In case the weather is not suitable, your safari will be postponed or cancelled.
Wheelchair
The rest stops are wheelchair accessible. You can easily access the area in a wheelchair. Make sure you inform us beforehand, so we can make the necessary changes.
Things to Carry
- Valid ID / Passport copy: Make sure you carry your residence ID or passport to the desert site. These documents are very necessary for the safety and security of the guests.
- Comfortable clothes: Make sure you wear comfortable clothes with fabrics like cotton. Try to wear long sleeves to get protection from the harsh rays of the sun. Also, make sure that the clothes are loose enough not to bother the experience.
- Closed shoes/trainers: Choose to wear closed-toed shoes so that the sand does not enter and touch your feet. The loose sand enters the shoes and creates a weird kind of feeling. Also, these shoes will give you more comfort and flexibility to move as well.
- Sun Protection: Carry products like sunglasses, hats, scarves and sunscreen to provide protection to your skin from the sun. These products block the sun and provide a soothing effect.
- Camera/smartphone: Do not forget to carry the camera or the smartphone to capture some memorable moments on your desert adventure.
- Small backpack: Pack the travel essentials in a small backpack to keep the necessary things handy on your travels.
- Reusable water bottle: Even though the bottle will be provided to you, do not forget to carry your own bottle. It is very important to keep yourself hydrated in a desert.
- Light jacket or shawl: The desert can be really cool in the winter months. Especially in the morning, the desert safari temperature is considerably lower. So, carry some layers with you to get some comfort.
Restricted Things
- Alcoholic beverages: In the Morning desert safari, you are not allowed to carry alcohol or purchase alcohol. However, if you want to enjoy some alcohol, you can choose the Evening Desert Safari or Platinum Desert Safari.
- Drones (in many protected areas): There are some protected areas in the desert which are secured to maintain the diversity of the desert. Objects like drones are restricted in that area.
- Large luggage: The space in the vehicles is very limited. Hence, it is advised not to carry any luggage with you. It will also be better for your safari experience. Try to travel as luggage-free as possible with just the essentials.
- Pets: Desert safari is not the place for pets. It is wild and thrilling, and bringing your pets may be harmful for the pets, desert animals and also fellow visitors.
- Smoking in a vehicle: You are not allowed to smoke in the vehicle during the safari. However, you can smoke in the designated areas at the rest stop. Smoking can become a possible reason for unwanted accidents if done inside the car during a desert safari.
- Sharp weapons: Any sharp or possibly sharp object can pose a threat to the guests and animals of the desert safari. You are not allowed to take knives, iron nails, glassware and more.
Who Can't Join This Experience
- Pregnant People: Women who are pregnant cannot join the safari due to the possible risk to the unborn child and their health.
- People With Injuries: People who have recently suffered a back or neck injury or have mobility issues are not advised to participate in the Morning desert safari, as the adventurous turns in the dune bashing can increase the pain.
- Infants: Kids below the age of 10 years are not allowed in this safari for the thrilling rides.
- Medical Conditions: Guests who have an uncontrolled medical condition or a condition for which doctors have restricted such activities are not advised to try on it, as it will just contribute to the problem.
Safety Tips
Guide instructions
Follow the instructions of the guide carefully and sincerely. Make sure to listen carefully to the briefing before you attempt the adventure activities, such as dune bashing and more.
Fasten seatbelts
Always wear the seatbelts during dune bashing, dune buggy or off-road driving.
Hydration
Stay hydrated while you enjoy the adventurous desert safari. Drink water and juices regularly to avoid dehydration in the desert heat.
Sun protection
Carry sunscreen, scarves, a hat and sunglasses to reduce the effects of UV rays.
Remain seated
Stay seated as the vehicle speeds up during dune bashing. Do not try to stand or move in the vehicle, as that can be dangerous.
Eat lightly
Avoid heavy or greasy meals before the safari to enhance your experience.

- Choose the Premium evening safari you want, with a comfortable seating experience and a private menu.

Frequently Asked Questions About Morning Desert Safari Dubai
Q. How long does the dune bashing session last during a Morning Desert Safari Dubai?
The dune bashing session on a morning desert safari typically runs for 25 to 30 minutes, slightly shorter than the 45-minute session on evening safaris, making it a gentler option for those prone to motion sickness. The shorter duration still delivers the full thrill of climbing and descending the red dunes.
Q. What is the difference between a Morning Desert Safari and an Evening Desert Safari in Dubai?
A morning desert safari focuses purely on adventure activities like dune bashing, camel rides, and sandboarding, wrapping up by late morning without a BBQ dinner or live entertainment. An evening desert safari runs longer, adding a full camp experience with dinner, cultural shows, and sunset views.
Q. Is the Morning Desert Safari cooler than the Evening Desert Safari?
Yes, morning temperatures in the desert are noticeably cooler, especially between May and September, since the dune bashing and outdoor activities happen before the midday heat sets in. This makes the morning safari a more comfortable choice during Dubai's hotter months.
Q. Can solo travellers join a Morning Desert Safari Dubai tour?
Absolutely, solo travellers are welcome on shared morning desert safari tours and often find it an easy way to meet fellow travellers during the desert camp stop. Private morning safaris are also available for solo guests who prefer a more personalised experience.
Q. Is the Morning Desert Safari suitable for guests prone to motion sickness?
The shorter dune bashing duration on a morning desert safari makes it comparatively easier on the stomach than the longer evening session. Guests prone to motion sickness are advised to sit in the front seat and inform the driver before the ride begins for a gentler experience.
Q. What time of year offers the best sunrise views on the Morning Desert Safari?
Winter months, between October and February, tend to offer the clearest skies and most vivid sunrise colours over the Lahbab dunes, along with cooler and more comfortable temperatures. Pickup times shift slightly earlier during summer to beat the heat.
Q. Can I cancel or reschedule my Morning Desert Safari Dubai booking?
Most operators, including Travel Saga, allow free cancellation or rescheduling up to 24 hours before the scheduled pickup time. It's best to confirm the exact cancellation policy at the time of booking.
Q. What activities are included in the Morning Desert Safari in Dubai?
The activities included in the Morning Safari can vary depending on the package you choose. Generally, the safari includes dune bashing and camel riding. Furthermore, food is available as per the selected package.
Q. What happens if the weather is extreme?
In case the weather is extreme or not suitable, the safari gets postponed or cancelled, as we keep our guests' safety as a priority.
Q. Is breakfast included in the Morning Desert Safari Dubai?
No, the meals are not included in this package. You can choose other options like a Private Dinner or an Overnight Safari to enjoy a delectable buffet in the desert.
