What is Ramadan?
A crescent moon is traditionally sighted during Ramadan to mark the beginning of the ninth month of the Islamic calendar. During Ramadan, we are encouraged to reflect and devote ourselves to God. During the month of Ramadan, people abstain from eating, drinking, and smoking from dawn until dusk.
The iftar meal is eaten after sunset to break the fast. Traditionally, people consume dates and other dried fruits before evening prayers. In the evening, many non-Muslims partake in special Iftar feasts offered by restaurants, which are usually shared with friends and family. The suhoor meal is taken just before sunrise to begin fasting.
Adventure Activities in Dubai During Ramadan
As we know, Dubai is a major Muslim city, and we can assume the majority of the population here fasts the entire month. Non-Muslims are not required to fast during this month and most
Most restaurants and eateries remain open during the day, so there are plenty of choices for refreshments during the daytime.
Also, remember one thing: if you are visiting Dubai during Ramadan, you will find the city less crowded because the business hours are shorter and many places are open for limited hours.
If you are one of those individuals seeking desert adventures and off-roading tours, then we are glad to inform you that you can enjoy all these activities and much more during Ramadan. Many tour operators still offer their services for such activities. After exploring the desert, you can enjoy a delicious Iftar dinner at the campsite and relax after a hectic day. The most popular desert activities are dune buggy rides, quad biking, and dirt biking.
Let’s discuss in detail what these activities are and what it’s like to experience them during Ramadan.
Desert Adventures to Do in Ramadan
Here are some major activities to expect on your Ramadan Dubai desert adventure.
Dune Buggy Rides
Dune buggy rental Dubai rides are ideal for family and group tours as you can book 4-seater models that can accommodate 5-6 people easily. So if you and your group are seeking an off-roading adventure in Dubai during Ramadan, then we recommend booking a buggy safari Dubai right away.
As a Muslim, if you are fasting, we recommend that you book short tours so you don’t feel too exhausted or thirsty. Also, remember to book dune buggy rides in the evening so you can break your fast later at the campsite and enjoy eating the Iftar buffet that offers various local and international dishes.
Quad Bike Rides
Quad Bike Rental Dubai, or what we commonly call ATVs, are special off-road vehicles designed to be driven in rough and challenging desert conditions. You can book them in Ramadan for a Dubai desert off-roading trip and go explore anywhere you want to.
Remember to follow the safety guidelines, and if you are fasting, keep your tour short. Evening times are best for quad bike rides because you get to experience the beautiful sunset views and also break the fast around this time as well.
Motorcycle Rides
Motorcycle rental Dubai is another exciting and fun activity to enjoy on a desert safari adventure on your vacation in Ramadan. Compared to the other two, Motorcycle rental rates are quite cheap, and these are perfect for solo tours. It offers the same thrill and excitement one craves on off-road tours. Do remember driving dirt bikes is a little tricky, and one must be a professional to handle them, so take a few beginner lessons if you are not familiar with its control and techniques.
