Get behind the handlebars and ride through open desert on this 6-hour quad bike desert safari, combining a self-drive ATV experience with 4x4 dune bashing, a Bedouin camp visit, and a BBQ dinner with live shows.
Pickup is at 3:00 PM from your Abu Dhabi hotel or cruise port. On arrival at the Al Khatim staging area, your safety marshal provides a full briefing and kits you out with a helmet, goggles, and gloves. Then take control of a 330cc to 400cc automatic quad bike and ride across open desert tracks for 30 or 60 minutes (selected at booking), with a marshal guiding your convoy throughout.
After your quad session, switch to a 4x4 Land Cruiser for 45 minutes of high-dune bashing. As the sun sets, stop for photos before heading to the desert camp. Spend your evening trying sandboarding and camel riding, then settle in for live Tanoura, fire, and belly dance performances alongside a freshly grilled Halal charcoal BBQ buffet.
Riders must be at least 14 years old to operate a quad independently. Children aged 8 to 13 can ride as passengers on dual-seater models. Closed-toe shoes and long trousers are required.
You are returned to your hotel by approximately 9:30 PM. Ideal for adventure seekers, families with older children, and groups. Shared and private vehicle options are available at checkout.
