Quad Safari

A quad bike safari is generally fun and definitely provides a bit of adrenaline, but it`s worth preparing for a few things. First of all, I highly recommend wearing long pants. I wore shorts, and unfortunately, my calves were badly burned by the heat from the engine. At temperatures around 40°C in the shade, the combination of a hot engine and bare skin isn`t ideal. It`s also worth wearing your worst possible T-shirt and shoes, which you don`t want to waste, as there`s a lot of dust and sand everywhere. Clothes get very dirty and are difficult to wash later, and in some places, it feels downright impossible. I recommend applying sunscreen with SPF 50 before the trip. And bring sunglasses. Another thing is riding the quad for about 50 minutes, constantly pressing the throttle with your thumb. For me, it was really strenuous – my hands hurt for over a week. Fortunately, the guide took two breaks along the way, because without them, it would have been difficult to get to the end. The trip itself was a great experience, but for me, it was definitely a one-time experience. It`s worth trying, but I probably wouldn`t go again.

A great trip, a great experience, riding a quad bike in the desert was priceless, there was time to take photos, the sunset, a Bedouin village as a curiosity, dinner and a dance show - I`m satisfied.
