Quad Biking in Abu Dhabi: Open Desert Rides and a Kids Quad

Grown-ups head out into the open dunes. Children ride their own quad inside a fenced area. Everyone gets a guide.

One desert, two ways to ride a quad

A quad bike is the most direct way to feel the desert. There is no roof and no door, only the throttle, the sand and the wind, which is exactly why people love it.

We run two quad experiences. Adults and older teens ride a single seater quad in the open deep desert near Al Khatim, led by a guide who sets the pace and stops for photos. Younger children ride a smaller single seater quad inside a fenced area, where a guide stays close and parents can watch from the edge.

Both start with a short briefing and a practice run. You do not need any riding experience, and you can choose 30 minutes, 1 hour or 2 hours.

How the open desert ride works

After the briefing and a practice run, your guide leads the group out of the practice area and into the dunes. The route and pace suit the least experienced rider, so nobody gets left behind.

Quad bikes are great at flat and rolling sand, and the guide chooses lines accordingly. Stops are built in for photos and a drink of water.

The kids quad, and why it is fenced

Children love the idea of riding a quad, and parents love the idea of keeping them in sight. The fenced area solves both. Your child rides a quad sized for them, a guide stays close, and the fence keeps the ride inside the space we set up for it.

Start with 30 minutes for a first go. If your child is still grinning when the time is up, you can add another session.

Which length is worth it?

One hour at AED 550 is the best value for most adults: only AED 100 more than the half-hour and twice the riding. Two hours at AED 950 suits confident riders who want a long, relaxed trip with plenty of photo stops.
