In villages and oases
Stay on public paths, ask before entering cultivated land and avoid taking photographs of people without permission. Buy directly from local makers when possible and ask about the origin of a product.
Around heritage
Do not climb fragile walls or remove material. Choose visits that respect conservation work and accept closures. Entry income and local guiding can help make preservation viable.
In the desert
Use established routes, take litter away and ask operators how they manage water and waste. Discuss animal welfare before any camel or horse activity.
Water and hospitality
Use water thoughtfully and follow your host’s advice. Hospitality is a human exchange, not a performance owed to visitors.
