Booking our desert adventure was very easy despite it being last minute. Customer service was also very helpful with our request. Our tour guide, Mohammad, took care of us very well. We went dune bashing with 2 kids and a senior and he took in mind our preference while making sure we enjoyed the experience. He was very encouraging for all of us to try sandboarding. We all had a blast! He put on music to set the mood in the car and took nice photos at the desert. Camp was clean, lovely food and entertainment. The photographers were too pushy though to sell us photos.

I actually loved the experience in general and it was a good value for money. The dune bashing was very fun and our guide Ismail played some good music and made it fun. Also our guide at the Buggy was great, he took his time, made effort to take cool pictures and videos of us driving and really made sure we were enjoying the experience. However, we didn't like the constant attempts of many vendors to sell us things, sometimes almost forcing us. And also at the end of the camp shows Ismail insisted that everyone gives him a great review on the spot. I hate being forced to give a fake opinion and this is the main reason for my frustration, otherwise we actually enjoyed most of the tour.

Overall, it was excellent; however, the vehicle's interior could have been better. I opted for a shared experience, and the other party arrived quite late, so I had to wait a considerable amount of time for the experience to begin.

Perfect coms with yourselves, Hassan our guide/driver was amazing for the day. Probably my only disappointment was we paid extra to include the sand buggies and we had literally 5 mins if that before we got called back in , to be honest it was a manic 5 minutes , a bad free for all and very dangerous unsupervised part of the day , I had my 14 and 19 year old grandsons with me was worrying. We had no instructions on how to operate the sand buggies. Apart from that it was a thoroughly enjoyable day thanks to yourselves and Hassan.

a very nice experience, the safari in the desert was the best, i think the crossing before the safari to the pool for the motors was a waste of time, our driver was excellent and also the food in the evening was very good and abundant. the only thing that saddened me was the treatment of the camels, they had to walk up and down a few steps for the tourists, such torture of animals should not be accepted.

The guide was a great driver, but he did not speak English or did not like to speak much, so we did not have the chance to interact and understand what the trip was about. It was freat that we did not have to share the car with other people. The bbq dinner was good, but I expected a better environment for it.

Our driver Ameer was great. My mom got car sick and he was super patient. Allowed her to get out of the car, take the rest of the group for the rest of the dunes ride and then returned to her promptly. Very nice.

Overall I liked it. But the camel ride is very short, just for the photo. The boarding was only one launch and they don't give time, it was one after another and you have to get up fast or you will crash with the next one. The food was excellent.

Quad biking in Dubai: Your booking guide
- Duration:
Quad biking duration depends upon your desert safari package. Generally, Quad biking takes up to 15 to 30 minutes. - Seating:
Most quad bikes comfortably seat 1-2 people. Families and friends can share the excitement, taking turns behind the wheel or enjoying the views from the passenger seat. - Pricing and Ticket Options:
Quad biking in Dubai is an optional add-on to your desert safari experience. Upgrade your adventure with a thrilling ride on these desert beasts!
But wait, is there even standalone quad biking? Don't worry if your desert safari package doesn't include quad biking. You can add this experience on our website or book once you reach the location for an additional amount of $80 to $100. - Value-packed: Desert safaris often offer better value for money than standalone tours. You get multiple activities, meals, transportation, and even entertainment for a single price, making it a more budget-friendly adventure.
What to expect during Quad biking
Imagine a motorcycle with a four-wheel drive and an adrenaline rush. That's a quad bike! These off-road beasts reach up to 50mph speeds, sending your heart racing as you navigate sandy slopes and bumpy trails. You'll feel the wind in your hair, the engine rumble beneath your palms, and the thrill of defying gravity as you lean into turns. Unlike a motorcycle, the low center of gravity keeps you planted, making it surprisingly easy to master. Think go-kart on steroids, with a desert backdrop.
But don't just picture it, experience it! Check out this video for a front-row seat to the quad biking action. See these sand-eaters in motion, feel the virtual spray of excitement, and hear the engines roar as they conquer the dunes.

What to eat
Quad biking in Dubai is an exhilarating adventure, not a leisurely stroll in the park. The powerful machines and challenging terrain pose potential risks, especially for inexperienced riders. To maximize your thrills while minimizing risks, here's a safety guide to steer you clear of sandy mishaps:
- Helmets are non-negotiables: Forget "adventure vibes" and think skull protection. Helmets absorb shocks in case of tumbles, potentially saving your life. Choose a properly fitted, DOT-approved helmet and secure it snugly.
- Dress for the desert: Ditch the flip-flops and wear sturdy shoes with good ankle support. Long pants and sleeves protect you from scratches and sunburn. Sunscreen and sunglasses are essential for keeping the desert sun at bay.
- Know your limits: Don't go from zero to desert hero overnight. Start slow and get comfortable with the controls before tackling steep slopes or high speeds.
- Respect the terrain: Dunes aren't playgrounds. Watch for uneven surfaces, hidden dips, and sudden drops. Avoid sharp turns and never exceed the designated speed limits.
- Solo adventurers, stay alert: We offer independent quad bike rentals, while guided tours are also available. If you're going solo, stay extra vigilant, inform someone of your route, and carry a charged phone in emergencies.
- Quad biking is for grown-ups only. The age limit is 16, and for good reason. Children lack the strength, coordination, and judgment required to handle these powerful machines safely.
- Take breaks regularly. Fatigue can lead to decreased reaction times and mistakes. Hydrate often, even if you don't feel thirsty.
Relax and leave the navigation to us! We'll pick you up from your hotel and whisk you to the desert oasis where your adventure begins—no need to worry about city streets or getting lost. Just buckle up and get ready for the excitement.
Locations:
Al Aweer Desert: Close to the city, this desert offers smaller dunes and shorter rides, perfect for a beginner's taste of the thrill.
Lahbab Desert: Here, you can enjoy the towering dunes that offer breathtaking views and challenging terrain. This desert is known for its exciting quad biking adventures for experienced riders.
Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve: This protected reserve with diverse landscapes and wildlife offers longer quad biking rides and a more eco-friendly desert experience.
Desert safaris in Dubai offer various Quad biking options, ranging from quick 15-minute blasts to extended 30-minute sand-shredding sessions. Choose your thrill!
Forget the midday sun scorch – the ultimate time to unleash your inner desert warrior on a quad bike is during the breathtaking Dubai evenings.
- Tame the Heat: Quad biking is an exhilarating workout, but it can become a grueling ordeal under the scorching midday sun. Evenings offer milder temperatures, making the ride more enjoyable and sustainable for your body.
- Sunset Symphony: Witness the desert transform into a breathtaking canvas of fiery hues. Imagine carving your path through golden sand as the sun dips below the horizon, creating an unforgettable spectacle.
- Cooler Engines, Cooler You: Not just you, even the quad bikes appreciate the cooler evening temperatures. Engines perform better and wear less in milder weather, leading to a smoother, more enjoyable ride.
- Crowds Disappear: The desert awakens with a different rhythm as the day fades. Fewer crowds mean more open dunes, more freedom to choose your path, and a truly immersive desert experience.
- Sun Shield: Long sleeves, pants, and a hat – sunburn stings worse than sand in your teeth! Also, a jacket for added protection from falls or bruises.
- Foot Soldiers: Sturdy shoes with good ankle support – flip-flops are for sunsets, not sand battles.
- Eye of the Tiger: Sunglasses keep out the glare and protect your eyes from flying dust.
- Hydration Hero: Pack plenty of water – desert thirst is a real foe!
- Leave it Light: Ditch bulky bags – you'll need your arms free to conquer those dunes!
Avoid heavy meals before hitting the sand. Opt for light and healthy meals before the safari to prevent discomfort during activities.
