Since Sandboarding is a part of most experiences, you will be allotted at least 15-20 minutes for it when you opt for standard tickets. However, with premium safari packages, you can enjoy longer duration along with other desert activities like quad biking or dune bashing.

Morning vs. Evening: Morning safaris offer cooler temperatures, fewer crowds, and stunning sunrises. It might be ideal for first-timers and families. However, the morning sun can cut short sandboarding sessions due to rising temperatures.
Evening safaris offer comfortable temperatures and a vivid environment to enjoy desert activities, but they are also often crowded, especially during the peak season.

Summer vs. Winter: The summers [May-October] can be challenging for some travelers as the temperatures rise to 50°C (122°F). Although the evening safari is more comfortable, morning safaris are pleasant as they start early. One can enjoy the activities for the desert safari before it gets too hot.

Long sleeves and pants: Shield your skin from the harsh sun and abrasive sand. Opt for lightweight, breathable fabrics like cotton or linen.
Closed-toe shoes: Protect your feet from scorching sand and potential injuries—high-ankle boots or sneakers with good grip.
Sunscreen: Apply generously and reapply throughout the day, especially after wiping away sand.
Hat: A wide-brimmed hat protects your face and head from the sun and sand.

A BBQ dinner

Most desert safaris include traditional Arabian meals or BBQ feasts, depending on your package. Avoid heavy meals before sandboarding, as they can make you feel sluggish.
