Overview

Your adventure begins with pickup from your hotel in Dubai, Sharjah, or Ajman. Your expert guide will provide insights as you travel to Lahbab, the remote 'Red Dunes' area, about 45-50 minutes away. During the drive, ask your guide about Dubai’s history, culture, and landmarks.

Arriving at Lahbab, take in the stunning desert landscape and capture photos. You can enjoy a camel ride or pose with the animals while the guide prepares the 4x4 vehicles. For added excitement, opt for a 30-minute quad bike ride across the dunes.

Next, buckle up for a thrilling 45-minute dune-bashing ride, expertly manoeuvred by your guide. Stop at a high dune for incredible photo opportunities. Try sandboarding next, gliding down the dunes with no experience required.

As the day concludes, relax and enjoy a desert sunset (available in afternoon slots), with vibrant colours perfect for photos. Afterwards, you’ll be driven back to your hotel, reflecting on an unforgettable 4-hour adventure in the Dubai desert.
