Overview
Swap the crowded midday heat for a crisp, quiet morning adventure that flips the traditional safari schedule upside down. Leaving your resort in the pitch black of the early morning, you will navigate winding mountain trails by the glow of your convoy's headlights. Reach a panoramic mountain ridge just as the night sky softens into deep ambers and purples, then descend into a peaceful valley outpost to enjoy a rustic, open-fire Bedouin breakfast as the desert completely awakens.
