Although most of us know Dubai for its high living standard and modern infrastructure that attracts millions of tourists every year, that’s not all the city has to offer.

Can You Drive a Dune Buggy in Dubai?
It is a common question among people: Can you drive a dune buggy on the road? The answer is no, and you should not do so. However, there are tons of routes and tracks in the deserts, and you are more than welcome to drive and explore the Dubai Desert on Dune Buggy.
Dubai Police may issue a traffic citation if they witness you driving a dune buggy on roads and highways. Fines or penalties vary based on how many times the same offense has been committed, in particular.
How Old Do You Have To Be To Drive a Dune Buggy in Dubai?
The legal age to drive a dune buggy in Dubai is around 16-18 years. Remember this age limit is for the driver, not the passengers and who will sit alongside you. The passenger limit is 8-10 years, and children must ride on a buggy along with a responsible adult. Call your tour company at the time of booking to confirm the age of driving a buggy because some companies may have different policies and age limits, which you must be aware of.
Important Points to Remember for Your Dubai Desert Dune Buggy Ride
Here are a few points to remember if you have never tried the Dubai dune buggy ride before:
Choose a Good Tour Company
Always book your dune buggy Dubai tour from a well-reputed company, as they always have a fleet of well-maintained buggies and follow all the necessary safety regulations to ensure the well-being of their customers.
Wear Comfortable Clothes
Clothing is very important when it comes to off-roading desert trips since the weather is very hot during the daytime. Wear loose-fitting and comfortable clothing and try to cover your arms and legs to avoid exposure to harmful sun rays. Take sunglasses, a hat, and sunscreen lotion along with it, and try to wear long boots to prevent the accumulation of sand on the feet.
Learn and Understand Buggy Controls
Know all the controls of the buggy before starting the adventure. Understand when to brake, change gears, and speed up as the landscape changes. If you have no experience of buggies it is better to choose ‘Guided Tours,’ and then you will know all this.
Put on the Safety Gear
Always wear the safety equipment, which is provided by the company, and make sure it fits you well, not too tight and not too loose. If so, request that your tour operator change the equipment.
Get the Best Photos of Your Tour
Please make sure to take a camera on your Desert Buggy Dubai ride to take the best shots and moments of the tour. Keep it charged, and if you can, bring some extra batteries. Inquire from your tour guide about the best locations in the desert that are worth visiting and shooting on your camera.
