Desert Safaris: A Novel Way of Exploring Abu Dhabi

The emirate of Abu Dhabi is one of 7 emirates that make up the United Arab Emirates. Due to the discovery of oil in the area and the rapid development that automatically ensued, this emirate has witness a massive change in the past 60 years, making it a wonderful place to visit, whether on vacation or for business.

When in Abu Dhabi, one experience that the emirate is famous for providing is their Desert Safaris. When touring the area, opting for a desert safari gives you the option of seeing the emirate in a new and improved fashion. For those wishing for convenience, a number of private companies organise a variety of tours complete with a tour guide for the ultimate educational experience.

One such option is the Morning Desert Safari that provides patrons with the opportunity of exploring the area before the climate gets too warm or stuffy. During the morning safari, various touring packages allow you a multitude of experiences including the option of riding on a camel and be privy to the everyday lives of the Arabs living in the Emirate, while a tour guide will divulge information about the desert as well. A number of companies also offer evening safari and overnight safari packages as well and such options maybe worth exploring for a wholly different experience.

Desert safari tours also include dune bashing, an activity that is sure to get your adrenaline soaring as you attempt to conquer the sandy dunes of the desert on a four wheeler. The uneven terrain of the desert is sure to make your ride an exhilarating one but it also gives you the opportunity of seeing Abu Dhabi from an entirely different perspective for perhaps you may be privy to a rare sighting of the famed gazelle and a multitude of other species.

Such tours can be organised conveniently from your own hotel in Abu Dhabi while certain companies even offer you the option of a tailor made safari to suit your specifications. For the very best experience the city can offer, opt to stay at a world renowned hotel, preferably part of an award winning chain such as Kingsgate Hotel Abu Dhabi.
