I landed in Dubai and settled in the hotel. The first thing I did was to make a quick search on safari tours. Most safari tours start either early in the morning or in the afternoon. Some tour itineraries also offer overnight camping too. We decided to take an afternoon tour. They pick you up around 3:00pm Dubai local time with 4×4 jeeps to take you directly to a special conservation spot in Al Awir for desert safari trips. Depending on the location of your hotel, the whole journey may take 40-50 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All tour vehicles meet at a predetermined point upon entering the desert area. While the tires are prepared for the rest of the journey \u2013 the air pressure in the tires is dropped to 15 PSI from 35 PSI for the desert \u2013 the tourists for the most part walk around in the desert sand and take photos or take in their surroundings. When all vehicles are ready to go on the safari, people get on board and the safari begins! I\u2019ve got to warn you: Don\u2019t you ever do what I did and take this trip after a full lunch, or else you may end up seriously carsick as I did. The most uncomfortable seat in the vehicle is the very back seat, by the way. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
