Equipment Information & Vehicle Details

This tour uses an air-conditioned 4x4 with a driver-guide, so there is no personal gear to fit beyond your seatbelt — child seats are available on request for younger travellers. Vehicles are serviced regularly and each driver carries a basic first-aid kit, recovery rope and extra drinking water as standard for every desert outing, whatever the group. Learn more about our fleet.

Safety Information

Because you ride as a passenger throughout, the main safety focus is simply seatbelts on at all times and following the driver's guidance when stepping out at dune viewpoints or nomad camps, where soft sand and uneven ground call for sturdy shoes. Our drivers are trained in desert recovery techniques for the rare occasion a vehicle gets stuck in soft sand. Read our full safety standards.
