Dune bashing in Dubai

Posted: July 11, 2024

Dune bashing in Dubai is an exhilarating activity that invites adventure seekers to experience the thrill of navigating through the vast, rolling sand dunes of the Arabian Desert. This high-octane activity is a highlight of both our morning and evening desert safari packages, offering a unique blend of excitement and scenic beauty.

What is Dune Bashing?

Dune bashing involves an off-road vehicle, typically a 4×4 like a Toyota Land Cruiser or a Ford Raptor, driven by expert drivers who maneuver the car over the sand dunes in a way that is sure to pump adrenaline. The vehicle climbs up the dunes, pauses momentarily at the peak, then plunges down the slope, sending sand flying around and offering a roller-coaster-like sensation.

Morning and Evening Safaris: Choose Your Adventure

  • Morning Safari: Kick start your day with the thrill of dune bashing as part of our morning desert safari. This adventure is perfect for those looking to infuse their morning with excitement before the desert heats up. Post-dune bashing, you can enjoy other activities like camel rides or quad biking to complete your morning thrill.
  • Evening Safari: As the sun begins to set, the desert takes on an ethereal beauty, making it the perfect backdrop for an evening dune bashing adventure. This experience is coupled with other cultural activities post-adventure, such as falconry, traditional dance shows, and a BBQ dinner, making it a well-rounded cultural and thrilling experience.

    Yes, dune bashing is considered safe when conducted under the supervision of experienced drivers and in properly equipped vehicles. Operators in Dubai adhere to strict safety standards, including the use of specially modified 4×4 vehicles equipped with safety features like roll cages and seat belts. Participants are also given a safety briefing before the activity begins to ensure they understand the dos and don’ts during the ride.

  • How long does a typical dune bashing session last?

    A typical dune bashing session in Dubai usually lasts between 30 minutes to an hour. The duration can vary depending on the package selected and the itinerary of the desert safari. Some extended tours may offer longer dune bashing experiences as part of a full-day desert adventure.

  • Can I drive the vehicle myself during dune bashing?

    Generally, dune bashing in Dubai is not offered as a self-driving experience due to the challenging nature of the activity and the specialized skills required to navigate the dunes safely. It is usually conducted by professional drivers who are trained and experienced in desert driving techniques. However, there are other off-road driving experiences available where you can drive under supervision if you’re looking for a hands-on driving adventure.
