Price: AED 600 per person Β· 30-min buggy, 1-hour buggy with pickup, or 1-hour buggy with desert camp & BBQ dinner
Get behind the wheel of a powerful 1000cc Polaris RZR dune buggy and drive it yourself across the red sand dunes of the Dubai desert. This self-drive dune buggy safari mixes real off-road adrenaline with classic desert fun: sandboarding down the dunes, a short camel ride and a photo stop in the middle of the desert.
Each buggy takes 1 driver and up to 3 passengers, so it is perfect for couples, friends and families who want to share the ride. An experienced desert guide leads the way on a set safety route, and every ride starts with training, a safety briefing and helmets.
Choose the option that suits your day: a quick 30-minute ride if you have your own car, a 1-hour dune buggy adventure with shared pickup, or the full desert evening with camp, BBQ dinner and live shows.
