Planning a Desert Safari with Quad Bike? Here's What to Expect
On most safaris, you're the passenger, not the driver. That's exciting, but plenty of guests want to take control themselves. A desert safari with quad bike gives you both: your own ride across the sand, followed by a relaxed evening at a desert camp.
This is the trip Desert Safari Quad Bike is all about. In this guide, we cover the packages, how the evening goes, how we keep you safe and what to pack.
The Trip at a Glance
It's a classic evening safari with a quad ride added at the start. You ride across the dunes behind a guide, then the safari carries on. There's dune bashing in a 4x4, a stop to watch the sunset, a camel ride and dinner with live shows at the camp.
It's the simplest way to enjoy quad biking in Dubai desert without booking two trips. You get one pickup, one booking and one full evening.
Our Packages
The Classic Combo
This is our most popular package. You get a quad bike ride followed by the full evening safari, dinner and shows. If it's your first time in the desert, start here.
Premium VIP Desert Safari with Quad
The premium VIP desert safari with quad brings more comfort to your night. It runs from about 2:30 PM to 9:30 PM, with VIP service at the camp once you've finished riding. It's ideal for birthdays and special trips.
Safari Without the Quad
Not sure you want to ride? The VIP desert safari runs from around 2 PM to 9 PM, without a quad ride. You can often add a ride later if you change your mind.
Quad Bike Ride Only
For riding only, book a quad bike ride Dubai trip by itself. You'll spend 30 to 60 minutes on the dunes, depending on what you book. It suits anyone who's already done a safari or is short on time.
Quad Bike Safari Price: What to Know
The quad bike safari price changes with the package, ride time and time of year. Since prices can change, we don't show fixed rates in this guide. Message us your date and number of guests, and we'll send the current price for every package.
What Happens on the Day
Pickup
Pickup is from selected points in Dubai and Sharjah, and we confirm the time when you book.
Before you ride
At the quad area, our team gives you a short training session. You'll learn the throttle, the brakes and how to lean into turns. Then it's helmet on and time to ride.
On the dunes
A guide leads the way, and you follow at a speed that feels right. Groups are small, with no more than eight riders, so there's plenty of space around you.
The rest of the evening
Once you've finished riding, the evening carries on with dune bashing and the sunset. Next comes the camp, with a camel ride, dinner and live entertainment. At the end of the night, we drive you back to your pickup point.
Why Small Groups Matter
Some operators send out long lines of quads. You end up riding in a cloud of dust and waiting for others. With small group quad biking, we stick to eight riders or fewer. That means more freedom, more help from the guide and better pictures.
Evening Safari With Quad Bike vs Ride Only
If it's your first time, choose the evening safari with quad bike. It packs the ride, sunset, camels and camp into one evening. A quad bike desert safari Dubai trip like this gives you the full desert experience.
If you've done a safari before or have limited time, book just the ride. It's quicker and easier to fit into your plans.
How We Keep You Safe
Quad biking is safe when you follow the guide and the training. Everyone gets a helmet and a quick lesson first. You choose your speed, so you're never pushed to go too fast. Our guides watch every rider closely the whole time.
Who Is It For?
Friends travelling together always enjoy the quads. Couples like riding together and then unwinding at dinner. New riders like the simple training and easy start. And if you've already been on a normal safari, the quad adds a fresh thrill. It also works for families with older kids, as long as each rider meets the age rules.
Choosing Your Season
October to April is the ideal time for quad biking. The sand is cooler and camp evenings are pleasant. In summer, late afternoon rides are best, as the heat drops after sunset. Book a few days early for weekends, as they get busy.
After Dark and More
If you love the night sky, our night desert safari Dubai trip is a real treat. Far from the city, the stars shine bright and the desert feels peaceful. We also run a cultural Bedouin camp trip, a desert photography safari and dune buggy rides of one to two hours.
