Start your day floating effortlessly in the intensely salty, crystal-clear turquoise waters of the Siwan salt pans. Then head into the dunes for high-speed ridge driving and sandboarding down massive slopes. Conclude with a traditional Bedouin tea ceremony brewed over an open fire as the sun sets across the endless Sahara.
