While in Dubai for a vacation or a business visit, how can one miss the opportunity to explore the city and admire it? While there are plenty of places to go and things to try here, but if you are looking for a relaxing and thrilling experience at the same time, then we recommend that you try the Dune buggy Dubai adventure.
Dune buggy tours take place in the vast deserts outside of the city, with little to no crowds. You can go anywhere and as far as you want to with no restrictions. Buggy Safari Dubai rides are ideal for this activity since it’s impossible to explore the desert on foot, plus these vehicles are designed for such purposes.
Dune buggy rental Dubai tours are offered in various types, depending on buggy models, duration, and skill level as well. To help you choose the right dune buggy tour, we have prepared this guide for you.
What Are Dune Buggies?
Dune buggies are sort of ATV vehicles (All-terrain-vehicles) designed for off-roading trips like sand dune trips in Dubai deserts and similar places around the world. Dune buggies come in types that vary according to engine type (CCs), seating capacity, and purpose someone wants to use them for.
Dune buggies are classified as:
- Sand-rail buggies suitable for deserts,
- Street legal buggies for roads and streets
- UTV (Utility Terrain Vehicles) to carry loads and passengers
- Off-road buggies for every type of terrain (ATV’s)
The ones you get to book in Dubai are the last type known for their off-roading capabilities. Due to the rise in popularity of off-road adventures in UAE, you can find plenty of tour operators who offer dune buggies on a rental basis at competitive prices as well. These companies are required to adhere to the safety standards for operating dune buggies and ensure the well-being of their customers.
You can book dune buggies according to the duration, model no., and seating capacities. Talking about capacities, dune buggies come in 1,2, and 4-seating models that are perfect for family and group tours. That’s one main advantage they have over quad bikes and dirt bikes.

Types of Dune Buggy Dubai Tours
Dune buggy tours are offered in 3 types depending on the skill level of the rider. Whether you are a beginner or a seasonal expert, you will find something to your liking.
Beginner Tours (Guided Tours)
Beginner tours are suitable for first-time riders where they can learn and understand how to operate buggies in desert terrain and how to tackle sharp turns and bumpy dunes along the way. These tours are also known as ‘Guided Tours’ because an expert remains alongside you and teaches you everything, and ensures you don’t injure yourself.
Guided tours are generally slow-paced and well-suited for exploring deserts and learning the terrain. Be sure to take your camera to capture the scenery of the location; we guarantee there are several beautiful spots in the desert. Beginner tours are best conducted during the day since it’s a little difficult to drive at night.
For families with kids and older people, these tours are ideal. Polaris RZR 1000cc buggies are best suited for these tours. Al-Qudra Lake and Desert Conservation Area is ideal for guided tours since the terrain is less challenging, plus the location has several scenic spots.
Intermediate Tours
These tours are a step up from beginner tours. Here, you can drive dune buggies faster and try driving on challenging terrain as well. Your guides will teach you several techniques on how to drive as the terrain becomes difficult. However, we recommend that you drive under the guidance of an expert and follow the safe speed limit mentioned on the sign boards along the way.
Be sure to bring your friends and colleagues to make this tour memorable and exciting, and have fun on 2 and 4-seater buggies.
Advanced Tours
Advanced tours are done by seasonal experts and professionals, and what they do is very risky but also adventurous at the same time. They drive at high speeds of upto 130 kph while jumping over tall dunes, making sharp turns, and maintaining their balance in between all this. Newbie riders should not attempt these stunts as they’re dangerous and may injure themselves.
For advanced tours, you can book Rapid Raid Can-Am Maverick Turbo buggies that have more powerful engines than Polaris ones suitable for driving on difficult terrain. These buggy rental costs are higher, but if you count the thrill factor, it’s very reasonable. Big Red Dune (Al Hamar) and Liwa desert are ideal locations in Dubai for adventure rides since the terrain in these areas is very challenging to traverse.
What Factors to Consider When Choosing Dune Buggy Dubai Tours?
We hope you get the idea of the different types of dune buggy tours offered in Dubai, and now it comes down to your preference, like what type you want to try out. Here are a few factors to consider:
Skill Level
Always know your skill level of driving dune buggies and then choose accordingly. As a beginner, we recommend you choose guided tours, as mentioned above already. In these tours, you get to learn about buggy controls and how to drive it in desert terrain. Driving a dune buggy is a little different than a regular car or motorbike, but you get the hang of it soon.
Seasonal experts know very well how to drive a buggy in any given condition. Plus, they know the best packages and deals, so it’s not an issue for them at all.
Group Tour or Sole Excursion
The next thing to consider is whether you are traveling with a group, which can be your family or other friends, or you are alone. Dune buggies are best for group tours because of their 4-seater models compared to quad bikes and dirt bikes. 4-seater buggies cost a little more as well, but it’s worth the experience.
For solo tours, dune buggies are the safest choice due to their roll cage design and seat belts. You don’t get these options in quad or dirt bikes.
Terrain Preferences
Different tours cover varied terrains. If you prefer a more relaxed experience, opt for tours that explore flatter areas. For a challenging adventure, choose tours that navigate through higher and steeper dunes. Your tour operator can better guide you in this regard as they have extensive knowledge about different desert terrains.
Safety Measures
Always remember to prioritize safety above anything else on the dune buggy rental Dubai tours. Always book a tour from a company that follows safety regulations for desert safari rides. Also, wear the safety equipment provided, which includes a safety helmet, gloves, goggles, and sports clothing. Check the quality of equipment provided on the tour and confirm it’s neither too tight nor too loose.
Refreshments Provided
Also, check if your tour operator provides refreshments along the tour since dune buggy rides are very exhausting. The refreshments include a stay at the campsite after the tour, where you will be served tea, coffee, and other beverages to energize your body and rest for a bit.
