What to expect
After a short briefing on the controls, you ride a quad bike over a marked area of the dunes, usually with a guide nearby. The sand is soft, so the ride is more about steering and balance than speed. First-timers pick it up quickly.
Ride lengths and routes vary by operator and season, so we confirm the details when you book rather than promising a fixed time.
Who can ride
Quad biking suits adults and older teenagers. Age and size limits are set by the operator, and children may be able to ride as passengers. Tell us the ages of everyone in your group and we will check before you book.
Safety and comfort
Follow the guide’s instructions, keep to the marked area and ride at a speed you are comfortable with. Wear closed shoes and sunglasses, and a scarf helps with dust. Ask the operator about helmets and safety equipment on the day.
Pairing it with other activities
A quad bike ride works well before a jeep safari or alongside parasailing for an adventure-focused afternoon. Our Desert Adventure Package combines all three with a stay at Desert Mafia Camp.
Booking an ATV ride
Quad bike rides can be added to any stay. Send us your camp, date and group size.
