What to expect
Premium Desert Safari
The VIP Dubai Desert Safari adventure typically begins with a pick-up from your location in the afternoon, with drive times ranging between 45 minutes to an hour, depending on your location. Along the way, you’ll pass through the outskirts of Dubai, watching the urban scenery fade into expansive, golden dunes. Upon arriving at the desert’s meeting point, you’ll have the opportunity to take a short break, use the washroom, and explore the surroundings. Here, you can also rent a quad bike or buggy for a self-driving experience, allowing you to navigate the sand dunes on your own for an extra thrill. Pre-booking is highly recommended for this activity Pick-up usually happens in the afternoon, around 2:00 PM to 3:00 PM during winter and as late as 3:30 PM 4:30 PM during the hottest month of summer or depending on the package selected. A 4x4 vehicle, usually a Land Cruiser, will pick you up from your hotel or designated location in central Dubai.
Quad Bike & Buggy ATV Desert Dubai
A Buggy Ride or ATV Ride is a popular outdoor adventure activity where participants drive dune buggies or ATVs across the desert terrain. These vehicles are built for off-road experiences, making it easier to navigate through the sand dunes and rough desert landscapes. Before the ride begins, participants are provided with all the necessary safety gear, including helmets and goggles, along with a brief orientation and guided instructions from experienced instructors. During the experience, there are scheduled stops where you can take photos, soak in the scenery, and appreciate the desert’s raw beauty. These moments give you the chance to rest, enjoy the quiet majesty of the surroundings, and capture some great memories. Most rides allow for around 20-30 minutes of quad biking, where you can navigate the dunes at your own pace.
The main event of the tour is dune bashing, an exhilarating 4x4 ride across the towering dunes, where your expert driver skillfully maneuvers the vehicle through steep, sandy slopes and thrilling descents. For those seeking additional excitement, sandboarding down the dunes is also available. These adrenaline-pumping activities offer a heart-racing introduction to the desert’s rugged beauty. Throughout the activity, experienced guides are on hand to ensure everyone’s safety and offer tips on mastering the ride. Sandboarding also provides some incredible opportunities for scenic views, especially at sunset, when the desert transforms into a landscape of rich, glowing colors. It’s not only an adrenaline-pumping adventure but also a way to enjoy the serene beauty of the Dubai desert.
