As a first-time visitor, you may wonder how much it costs to rent a dune buggy in Dubai and how the charges vary. The rental cost of a dune buggy varies according to the model and time duration you want to book it. Today, we will look at how much of your budget you need to book a Dune Buggy ride in Dubai. Companies offer different packages from which you can choose. Some well-reputed and experienced companies may offer higher prices, but their service is also top-notch as well.
What Are Dune Buggies?
For newbie drivers, we start by defining what is a dune buggy. Dune buggies are off-road vehicles designed with special mechanics to be driven on rough surfaces like sand, beaches, and hills.
They have powerful engines and large tires compared to our regular vehicles that help them navigate these areas. Plus, they also have several built-in safety features like roll cages, seat belts, and a sturdy suspension system. They come in 1,2 and 4-seater capacities that can easily accommodate groups of 5-6 persons, and even children can ride them as well.
Dune buggy Dubai rides offer a thrilling and exciting way to explore the vast Arabain deserts and see the hidden beauty of these regions safely and enjoyably.
How Much Does It Cost to Rent a Dune Buggy in Dubai?
The cost to rent a dune buggy varies depending on the time duration and model you have booked. Generally, it costs around 800-2200 AED to rent a 1-seater dune buggy for a 1-4 hour duration. Further, if you increase seating capacity to 2-seater models, the cost rises to 900-2400 AED. At last, the 4-seater models cost 1000-2500 AED for the same time duration.
Remember, safety equipment such as helmets, gloves, and goggles are provided in your package; you don’t have to pay extra for them. If a company doesn’t provide them, then don’t book from such companies that don’t give much importance to the safety and security of riders.
At the time of booking, do ask your tour operator about all the terms and conditions regarding cancellation if the situation arises in case of emergency or bad weather. Most companies refund 100% of the amount; given inform them at least 24 hours before the actual time of the tour, and afterward, there is a small cancellation fee you have to pay.
