5 days in the Hisma desert / Bajdah desert - Overlanding adventure in Saudi Arabia Ep.3

Embark on an unforgettable journey with us through the breathtaking landscapes of Saudi Arabia's best-kept secret: the Hisma Desert, also known as the Bajdah Desert. While Jordan's Wadi Rum may steal the spotlight, we assure you, the Hisma Desert rivals its beauty, if not surpasses it!
Nestled in the NEOM area, northwest of Tabuk, this expansive desert exudes an otherworldly charm with its vast stretches of red sands and mesmerizing rock formations. Unlike its more popular counterparts, the Hisma Desert offers a pristine and untouched allure, with minimal tourist infrastructure. Here, you'll find yourself immersed in solitude, accompanied only by the occasional visit from local shepherds and camel herders.
Join us as we spend five unforgettable days traversing this remarkable landscape, allowing each moment to unfold organically. From tackling sand dunes to marveling at the rugged beauty of the terrain, every turn offers a new adventure. And with no facilities in sight and limited passage, the sense of self-reliance adds an exhilarating edge to the experience.
But before we delve into the desert, get a glimpse into our "life on the road" as full-time travelers. From mundane tasks like filling water tanks to stocking up on supplies, van life isn't always about the glamourous moments-it's about embracing the journey in its entirety.
Whether you're an avid traveler, an aspiring overlander, or simply seeking inspiration for your next adventure, our CZcams series promises to ignite your wanderlust and showcase the raw beauty of Saudi Arabia's hidden gem, the Hisma Desert. Join us as we uncover the secrets of this captivating landscape and redefine the essence of adventure. Don't forget to like, subscribe, and join us on this extraordinary expedition!
