Join us on an experience into the dune systems of the Sahara Desert. Here you experience nature in all it’s harshness and raw power yet, with the right skills, you’ll also tap into the beauty and peace of such a vast landscape, where temperatures sore to 50 degrees or more during the day and can drop by 30 degrees or more overnight.
With an instructor team that has several decades of experience in desert environments across Morocco, Egypt and Saudi Arabia you’ll learn to adapt in what can be the harshest, yet most peaceful environment, you’re likely to encounter on the planet. The desert can throw everything at you from blistering heat, sandstorms that sting the flesh and take away all visibility, to flash floods that change the environment within minutes. The desert does not tolerate those that enter without careful preparation.
During the expedition you will learn how to identify all the common hazards and use this knowledge to travel safely across this seemingly barren landscape. And more importantly what to do when things go wrong, from methods for vehicle recovery, to catastrophic vehicle failure. You’ll also get to trial all the theory on desert survival, such as a water acquisition, to see how the books stack up to real life.
You would be right to question whether the human body is capable to being comfortable in such extremes, and this is exactly the correct attitude. At these temperatures nature has no care for the fragility of the human spirit, or human body. However, with the correct training from people you can trust to keep you safe, this desert environment can soon become an incredible home. It is quite simply beautiful, and you will connect with her in a way that few get the opportunity to. This is why we want YOU to be guided with us.
And when the skies are clear you’ll see a night sky that will quite simply take your breath away. Dark skies in the UK have nothing on what you will see here.
