Your Ride, Step by Step
Getting there
Most of our packages come with hotel pickup and drop-off, so you don't need to find the desert yourself. You'll get your pickup time on WhatsApp.
Before you drive
Before anyone gets behind the wheel, our guide gives a short safety briefing. You'll learn how the buggy works, how to brake on sand and how to follow the guide. Then it's helmets on and into the seat.
Driving the dunes
A guide leads the way, and you follow in your buggy. You choose your own speed, so you can take it easy at first and go faster once you feel confident. We stop on the high dunes for photos as you go, so you'll have plenty of pictures to show off.
Back to base
After the ride, you head back for a drink and a rest. On some packages, the evening continues with a camel ride, a BBQ dinner and shows.
2 Seats or 4 Seats?
Our fleet is made up of Polaris and Can-Am buggies, and every one is serviced daily. Every buggy has a roll cage, and helmets are always provided.

Riding the Red Dunes
We ride on the red sand dunes outside Dubai. The sand has a deep red colour that glows in the late afternoon. A red dunes buggy ride looks fantastic in photos and feels very different from riding on paler sand. The dunes are big and exciting, but our guides pick routes to match your skill.

Buggy or Quad Bike?
One question we hear a lot is whether to choose a buggy or a quad. A quad bike is smaller, and you ride it like a motorbike, sitting on top. A buggy is more like a small car, with a seat, a steering wheel and a roll cage around you. For most first-timers, a dune buggy ride Dubai trip feels safer and more relaxed, and you can bring a passenger along. If you love the feeling of wind and want something lighter, a quad is great fun too.
Who Will Enjoy It Most?
Groups of friends love the buggies because they can follow each other over the dunes. Couples like sharing a two-seat buggy. Families with older kids book the 4-seat buggies so everyone can ride together. And anyone who likes cars, speed or adventure will have a great time.
Best Time to Ride
With hours from 8 AM to 10 PM, there's a slot for everyone. The morning is cooler and calmer, which helps in summer. Late afternoon gives you that golden light on the red sand. Between October and April, the weather is lovely at most times of day.
Tips for Great Photos
At a photo stop, stand with the sun behind you. Action shots work best when a friend drives past while you film. While riding, keep your phone safe in a zipped pocket. And don't forget to take your helmet off for a smiling selfie at the end.
Is It Safe?
Yes. Buggy riding is safe when you follow the guide and the rules. You wear a helmet and seatbelt, and every buggy has a roll cage. Our guides ride with every group and keep the pace sensible. If you feel nervous, let the guide know and they'll slow things down.
What to Wear
• Clothes you don't mind getting sandy
• Trainers or closed shoes
• Sunglasses or goggles
• A scarf to cover your face from the dust
• Water and sunscreen
