Families across the Kingdom are currently making the most of the fantastic late November weather by packing up, setting up tents and overnight camping in the desert.

Camping is one of Saudi’s most favoured activity during winter, and luckily for all of us, there’s also no more magnificent location than its extended desert.

Az Zulfi’s dunes are one of MANY oasis desert spots that have left many in absolute awe of its beauty, and it’s a great place to consider for your next weekend camping trip.

Az Zulfi experiences very hot summers but super cool winters

The latter weather is when the chai turns into a necessity.

And let’s not even forget the camping food = always EXTRA
