Quad Bike and Dune Buggy Adventures in Dubai

On Dubai's desert adventures, you are the one at the controls. On the quad bike tour you ride for an hour on a guided route through the dunes, either on your own quad or sharing one with a partner, then try sandboarding, take a short camel ride and cool down with drinks in an air-conditioned tent. The dune buggy seats two and you drive it behind a guide for half an hour or a full hour, again with sandboarding and a camel ride. One option continues to a desert camp for shows and a barbecue dinner.

Before you ride

These trips suit active travellers and couples who would rather drive themselves than sit in the back of a 4x4. A guide leads the route, so you can concentrate on the sand ahead. Morning slots are the coolest, which matters most from May to September. Wear closed shoes and light clothing you do not mind getting dusty, and bring sunglasses and a scarf to keep sand off your face. Leave valuables at the hotel. Hotel pickup in Dubai is included, and the exact time is confirmed after booking. Find more desert and city ideas on our Dubai tours page.
