Desert Safari

Morning Desert Safari With Land Cruiser 4X4 + 30 Min ATV Quad Bike

The standard morning safari plus a 30-minute guided ATV quad bike ride: 25-30 minutes of dune bashing in a shared Land Cruiser 4x4, a quad bike segment, sandboarding and a short camel ride, all for AED 290 per person with hotel pickup and drop-off included.

3.5-4.5 hrs Pickup included Family friendly Al Awir, Dubai

Overview

The Morning Desert Safari with Land Cruiser 4x4 + 30 Min ATV Quad Bike takes the standard AED 225 morning safari and adds a 30-minute guided quad bike ride, all for AED 290 per person — AED 65 more than the base package. Pickup runs 8:30 to 9:00 AM from your Dubai hotel, home or apartment, then it's out to the Red Dunes Desert for 25 to 30 minutes of dune bashing in a shared Land Cruiser 4x4 before the group splits off for the quad segment.

Once the quad bikes are back on their stands, the morning slows down for sandboarding, a short camel ride and soft drinks while the sun climbs higher over the dunes. You're dropped back at your hotel, home or apartment by around 12:00 to 12:30 PM, with dune bashing, quad riding, sandboarding and the camel ride all folded into one late-morning trip.

Questions About This Tour

What's different between this tour and the standard Morning Desert Safari?

This package adds a 30-minute guided ATV quad bike ride on top of the standard morning itinerary - the same Land Cruiser dune bashing, sandboarding and camel ride, plus quad time, for AED 290 per person, AED 65 more than the base package. If you'd rather skip the quad ride and keep things simple, the standard Morning Desert Safari stays available at AED 225.

How long is the quad bike segment and is it guided?

You get 30 minutes on a single-seater ATV quad bike, led by our guide who rides alongside the group and sets the pace, with a briefing on the controls before you set off.

Is there a minimum age for the quad biking part?

Riders need to be 16 or older to take the quad bike out. Younger children in your group are welcome on the rest of the morning - pickup, dune bashing, sandboarding and the camel ride - they simply sit out the quad segment with the group's guide.

Do I need previous quad bike experience?

No experience is required. Our guide walks every rider through the throttle, brakes and turning before the group heads out, and the pace stays easy enough for first-timers.

What should I wear for the quad biking and dune bashing combo?

Closed shoes, sunglasses and clothes you don't mind getting sandy work best. Helmet and goggles are provided for the quad segment, and we recommend tying back long hair before you set off.

30 minutes on the quad felt just right, not too long to get tired before the dune bashing part.

My teenage son rode the quad while our younger one sat that bit out, still had a blast with the camel and sandboarding.
