The experience
Jeep safaris near Sam typically use open-top vehicles driven by experienced local drivers. The drive includes steep climbs and sudden descents over dune crests, which can be thrilling. Drivers adjust the intensity for passengers; if you want a gentler ride, say so before setting off.
Many jeep safaris end at a sunset point, and some routes pass desert settlements or open grassland. The exact route depends on the operator and conditions.
