The desert is beautiful all year round, but each season suits a different trip. Here is what we tell guests who ask about the best time to go.
October to April: the golden season
Warm days and pleasant nights, roughly between 20 and 30°C. This is the best time for the evening safari, the overnight camp and private dinners, and the sky is clearest for stargazing in December and January.
May and September: in between
Days get hot, but evenings are fine. We suggest the evening safari, which starts a little later, or the morning dunes.
June to August: early mornings first
Daytime temperatures can pass 40°C, so we shorten the trips: the morning dunes end before 9 am and the evening safari starts after the worst of the heat. There is cold water in every car, and we pause the overnight camp until October.
Sandstorms
They happen now and then in spring and early summer. We check the weather warnings every day, and if there is a dust or wind warning we move your trip or refund it in full.
