This doesn&#8217;t come as a surprise, given that more than 80% percent of the UAE&#8217;s landmass is desert. It is undoubtedly a place you should definitely explore when planning a trip to the UAE. Here are some important things you should know before visiting Abu Dhabi and planning for a desert safari.<\/p>\n<h2>Is it possible to have fun in the desert?<\/h2>\n<p>Whenever we hear the words &#8220;desert&#8221; we quickly conjure up images of a barren land with a rare oasis that is most probably a mirage combined with eerie silence. Your thoughts and beliefs are going to be challenged with the Abu Dhabi desert safari. Once deemed a no-entry zone, the Abu Dhabi desert has become a popular location for tourists to get to know what the desert looks like, see the way in which the Bedouin people lived here and experience various entertainment options that are popular in the desert. If you are skeptical about having fun in the Abu Dhabi desert, take a chance by\u00a0booking an Abu Dhabi desert safari, and you won&#8217;t be disappointed.<\/p>\n<h2>What happens in an Abu Dhabi desert safari?<\/h2>\n<p>The desert was home to the nomadic people of UAE, the Bedouins. An Abu Dhabi desert safari is an excursion to the desert where you can experience how the Bedouins enjoyed the desert. One of the highlights for adventure lovers is the <a href=\"https:\/\/abudhabi-desertsafari.com\/en\/blog\/dune-bashing-in-abu-dhabi-your-ultimate-guide-to-an-unforgettable-desert-adventure\/\">dune bashing<\/a> that is done on a 4 wheel drive like land cruiser or\u00a0hummer\u00a0for VIP safaris. Travelers have a wonderful time as the vehicle climbs and descends the lofty sand dunes. Depending on the safari you choose you might be taken to a camel farm where you can see these magnificent creatures up close. Some other thrilling activities include quad biking, sandboarding and\u00a0camel riding.\u00a0Upon reaching the campsite you will get to experience many types of Emirati entertainment and even enjoy an Emirati meal depending on the safari you have chosen.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-53\" src=\"https:\/\/abudhabi-desertsafari.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/abu-dhabi-desert-liwa-oasis.jpg\" alt=\"Liwa oasis\" width=\"950\" height=\"500\" srcset=\"https:\/\/abudhabi-desertsafari.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/abu-dhabi-desert-liwa-oasis.jpg 950w, https:\/\/abudhabi-desertsafari.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/abu-dhabi-desert-liwa-oasis-300x158.jpg 300w, https:\/\/abudhabi-desertsafari.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/abu-dhabi-desert-liwa-oasis-768x404.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 950px) 100vw, 950px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2>Which desert do we visit when going on an Abu Dhabi Desert safari?<\/h2>\n<p>The most popular desert names you will hear and visit are the\u00a0Al Khatim desert,\u00a0Rub Al Khali or Empty quarter, and the Liwa oasis.<\/p>\n<h2>What are the different types of desert safari tours available to book in Abu Dhabi?<\/h2>\n<p>The desert has varying personalities and you can enjoy whichever you prefer depending on your schedule.

Avoid any sports shoes or closed shoes.

Fortunately, all desert tour companies in Abu Dhabi let you skip dune-bashing for a more pleasant experience.<\/p>\n<h3>Desert rains and sandstorms<\/h3>\n<p>There is only a 5% chance that torrential rain will force an Abu Dhabi desert safari to be canceled as rain is a very uncommon occurrence in the desert of Abu Dhabi. However, there is a chance of encountering sandstorms that are unfavorable to off-roading activities, in which case the tour companies will reschedule your safari excursion.<\/p>\n<h3>Riding a camel<\/h3>\n<p>Most desert safaris only allow guests to ride a camel for about three to five minutes. After your picture has been taken, you must make way for the next person in line, especially during peak season. Beware of desert safaris that include camel rides on their itineraries. It is a camel sitting and photo opportunity, not a camel ride. Many websites claim to offer desert safaris with camel rides, but they lack the courage to be honest with their visitors.Plan ahead and reserve a camel trek if you want to take a leisurely ride through the desert. Now that you can actually ride a camel, you can carry the experience and that photo around with you.<\/p>\n<h3>Dinner buffet<\/h3>\n<p>Similar to camel rides, there will be another line for the BBQ dinner. When you see a safari price for a cheap rate, you can probably guess how long the line will be and what kind of food you&#8217;ll get. If you want resort-quality food, always look for a premium tour. If you choose a standard tour, expect the standard quality of the food. The majority of tours, even premium tours, offer buffet meals, but you have to wait in line to get them. You must reserve a\u00a0private dune dinner experience\u00a0if you&#8217;re looking for something more deluxe and private.<\/p>\n<h3>Cancellation policy<\/h3>\n<p>Most tour companies offer a 24-hour cancellation policy, but some premium experiences do not allow any cancellation. Carefully read your voucher to know about the cancellation policy.<\/p>\n<h3>Free overnight desert stays<\/h3>\n<p>There aren&#8217;t many places in the Abu Dhabi desert that are declared as camping spots. Camping in Al Khatim is not prohibited but you can do that at your own risk. Refrain from making any plans based on online articles because the majority of them publish fake information. If you want to reduce the cost and dont want to book an\u00a0overnight desert safari\u00a0tour, it is preferable to negotiate a deal with the local tour operator and make a deal nearby their camp to do a desert stay.<\/p>\n<h2>Picture Perfect Locations<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Click Instagram Worthy Photos<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>If you enjoy documenting your vacations and love to spruce up your Instagram feed with gorgeous photos, our list of places for that picturesque shot will prove helpful to you. The desert is picturesque in itself, but if you want more than the stark contrast of gold and blue, keep reading.<\/p>\n<h4>Best instances and locations for mind blowing pictures<\/h4>\n<ul>\n<li>The tallest sand dune in the world, Tel Moreeb in the Liwa desert<\/li>\n<li>Tall mega dunes in the Al Khatim desert<\/li>\n<li>When riding a camel<\/li>\n<li>With a falcon perched on your arm during a falconry demonstration<\/li>\n<li>During belly dancing<\/li>\n<li>At the time of sandboarding<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Insurance and Safety Policies<\/h3>\n<p><strong>When choosing a desert safari provider, bear the following in mind:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>All companies offering desert safaris obtain third-party liability insurance, and rollover protection of their vehicles. This is a necessary precaution, particularly when driving over dunes because the 4&#215;4 may topple over due to the dunes&#8217; steepness. Numerous serious vehicle roll-over accidents have resulted in serious injuries to guests with occasional fatalities.<\/li>\n<li>The more established the desert safari company, the more consideration they will show for their customers.<\/li>\n<li>When booking the Abu Dhabi desert safari, be sure to enquire about their safety policies and procedures. Then, book your safari with a company that has a strong set of safety guidelines.<\/li>\n<li>Keep an eye on the car&#8217;s condition even after you meet the guide. Ask your tour guide if it is rollover protected if it appears to be in good condition. Accidents may occur occasionally, even when all safety precautions are taken. Call your operator if you believe your safari guide is not as skilled as you believe he needs to be to traverse the dunes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-74\" src=\"https:\/\/abudhabi-desertsafari.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Souvenirs-from-Abu-Dhabi-Desert.jpg\" alt=\"Souvenirs from Abu Dhabi Desert\" width=\"800\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/abudhabi-desertsafari.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Souvenirs-from-Abu-Dhabi-Desert.jpg 800w, https:\/\/abudhabi-desertsafari.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Souvenirs-from-Abu-Dhabi-Desert-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/abudhabi-desertsafari.com\/en\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/03\/Souvenirs-from-Abu-Dhabi-Desert-768x576.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2>Planning to Take Souvenirs from Abu Dhabi Desert?<\/h2>\n<p>Traditional camps, where Standard Safaris are held, have stores that might be a good place to consider buying souvenirs. The beauty and intrigue of Abu Dhabi&#8217;s Arabian heritage are reflected in ornate wooden carvings, regional art, gold jewelry, and carpets. Souvenirs come in all sizes and shapes, from the smallest silver pillbox to the largest hand-woven carpet, and are frequently cheaper in Abu Dhabi than they would be elsewhere. The key is to steer clear of tourist traps and know where to find genuine goods that you will cherish for a lifetime. Prices in desert shops may also be higher than those in cities like The Mall Souq or the Iranian market Abu Dhabi.<\/p>\n<h2>Animals Encountered at Al Khatim Desert<\/h2>\n<p>There is an abundance of wildlife in the desert, but we aren&#8217;t observant enough to see every lizard that creeps by.
