Things You Must Carry To a Desert Safari in Abu Dhabi

When in the capital city of Abu Dhabi, you can’t miss the exciting desert safari. It’s where you ride a camel, go dune-bashing, and enjoy views of the sunrise and sunset.

It’s probably one of the best things to do in Abu Dhabi. While packing your little backpack for the expedition, you might wonder what to put inside. We’re here to tell you what should go in the bag.

The post highlights things you should carry on your Abu Dhabi desert safari trip. Let’s get started!

 



1. Your Trendy Shades



Sunglasses are a must for safari trips. They are not just gram-worthy but let you stay safe under the sun. You are going to a desert, so the sun will pinch hot. You don’t want the sun's glare to damage your eyes.



Sunglasses should be of good quality and save you from the sun’s glare. Don’t forget to wear them or put them in the case.



2. A Water Bottle



You are going to a desert, and it gets extremely hot there. The tour operators might be keeping water bottles for the travelers, but you should keep a bottle of water for yourself. It gets hot during a safari tour, and you need to stay hydrated under the pinching sun. This will ensure you stay healthy and fit during the trip and do not get dehydration symptoms.



3. A Sand-Proof Bag To Keep Your Belongings



There’s a lot of sand in a desert, so make sure you have a sand-proof bag to keep all your belongings. This way, nothing will stick to the bag and soil your precious items.



Sand-proof bags are easily available. So, even if you have a backpack, put the valuable items in this soil or sand-proof bag.



4. Sunscreen



The UV rays can be harmful. Thus, we suggest keeping sunscreen in your bag. Since you will be out in the desert for quite some time, you must protect your skin from sun damage.



It’s a no-brainer. You have to wear sunscreen when stepping out for any adventure.



5. Binoculars



If you want to spot camels or any specimen, consider carrying binoculars to the desert. This way, you can have a fulfilling experience.



You can spot birds, eagles, and other specimens on your own.



6. Comfortable Shoes



Don’t commit the mistake of wearing heels, wedges, and formal shoes to a desert. It’s a big NO. You will walk on sand, so wear socks, sneakers, or comfortable shoes.



This will save you from all the hardship, and you will have a lovely time at the desert safari.



Concluding Thoughts:

Well, these were the must-haves during a desert safari. You should also ensure you are wearing comfortable and light clothes. Wear something that is also respectful to the people in Abu Dhabi.



Many people prefer wearing full pants or traditional wear to the desert safari. Read about the clothing etiquette in Abu Dhabi before going for a desert safari.



If you carry all the things we’ve mentioned, you will surely have a pleasant tour. So, read the list again, and then pack your backpack.
