โAs if the day couldnโt get any dreamier, we were dropped off in the middle of the desert to be greeted by dozens of camels waiting for us. Each of us was assigned a camel for ourselves before touring more desert land as a large caravan until we arrived at our final destination: the perfect sunset overlook. I hiked to the top alone and stood speechless, entirely possessed by awe and wonder as I watched the final glimpses of evening light reflecting off the sand.โ
โI'm convinced there's no better way to fully experience the desert landscape featured in Star Wars, The Martian, and Indiana Jones than driving at high-speed during golden hour. We made two stops along the way to hike up massive rock features with insane views that go for miles.โ
โAfter a day in the back of a 4-wheel drive, running up sand dunes, and climbing the sides of valleys, the thin-mattressed bench in my airy shack was calling. As basic as it was, I quickly fell asleep. After what seemed like 10 seconds, I woke to the sound of hammering on my door and a constant white noise outside the shack. Rain.โ
