During our tour, we’ll have the chance to marvel at the vastness of the desert and capture those unique moments with our cameras. Next, we’ll stop at a group of carefully selected dunes, where we’ll swap the buggies for sandboards, getting ready for an exhilarating session of sliding across the sand.
