Rent a car or take a local tour to the "Big Red" for some sand boarding and 4x4ing ... that's where many locals go

Well if you're going in the next few months you'll have to spend all your time indoors until the sun goes down. It's too hot to be outdoors and even at night it's 30+. Also check out the various street markets, so much cheap crap and if you're into gold check out the gold market.
