Dune Buggy Dubai Can-Am and Polaris Buggies on the Red Dunes of Lahbab

For 30 minutes, a 1 seat buggy costs USD 163 (AED 600) and a 2 seat buggy USD 218 (AED 800). The 4 seat buggy costs USD 327 (AED 1,200). Transportation is additional, unless you arrive in your own vehicle.

Every price is calculated per buggy. A couple sharing a 2 seat buggy therefore pays one combined price of USD 218 (AED 800).

One 4 seat buggy for 30 minutes costs USD 327 (AED 1,200). Including a Land Cruiser pickup, the total becomes USD 599 (AED 2,199). Choosing a sedan or 4×4 reduces it to USD 517 (AED 1,899). Two separate 2 seat buggies with a Land Cruiser cost USD 708 (AED 2,599).

For a first taste, yes. Many couples prefer 1 hour, because the first ten minutes go on finding the feel. After that, the dunes become genuinely exciting.

No. Helmet fitting and the briefing come first, and your time starts once you drive away. Book an hour, and you drive for an hour.

One hour costs USD 327 (AED 1,200) in a 1 seat buggy and USD 436 (AED 1,600) in a 2 seat buggy. The 4 seat buggy costs USD 654 (AED 2,400) for an hour. Additional hours simply multiply the 30 minute price.

Yes, provided you wear the seat belt and helmet and follow the guide. The roll cage protects everyone, and the guide chooses a comfortable pace for beginners.

Absolutely, you drive the buggy yourself. Our guide rides a quad slightly ahead to indicate the route, but nobody takes the steering away from you.

You rent the buggy by the half hour and drive it yourself. However, a guide always rides alongside, because the dunes hide sudden drops that drivers can’t spot from behind the wheel.

It is both in one booking. You rent the buggy by the half hour and drive it yourself. Our guide rides alongside and leads the way over the dunes. Nobody drives the desert alone, because that keeps every group safe and on the right track.

Yes. Reserve just the buggy, then arrive in your own car or with our private pickup. The camp, dinner and camel ride are optional extras, never compulsory.

A buggy offers a roll cage, seat belts and space for passengers, so it suits couples and families. A quad feels lighter and more adventurous, and it’s considerably cheaper. Compare both on our quad biking Dubai page.

Ordinary knocks from the sand cost nothing. Damage from reckless speeding is charged according to the repair, and the guide riding with you explains it immediately.

Closed shoes, lightweight trousers and a comfortable top work perfectly. Bring sunglasses and a scarf against the dust. We provide helmets, goggles, gloves and cold water.

Late afternoon and sunset are the most popular choices, with softer light and cooler temperatures. During summer, the early morning is considerably more comfortable.
