It's a good thing that you went somewhere where people go, going to a deeper part of the desert where nobody goes would have been difficult.
We Qataris always try to go to the desert in packs of 2 or more cars, with at least 2 people per car, just in case something happens and there's nobody else there. We also bring lots of water and food (water first!).
When camping we bring along our tents, a few sheep, lots of rice, water, a generator, TV, DVD, consoles ... and wood.
We would cook our own food, and stay up by the fire, chatting for long hours.

It's a great experience that many would enjoy.
