08 — ABOUT BIG RED ADVENTURE TOURS
Desert tours, done properly.
Big Red Adventure Tours runs self-drive dune buggy tours in the Arabian desert just outside Dubai. Choose between the Can-Am X3 Turbo (2-seater and 4-seater) or our 240 HP flagship Can-Am Maverick R - the best-maintained fleet in the industry. Every buggy is fitted with a full roll cage, doors and 4-point race harnesses, and all protective gear is provided.
Professional guides lead every convoy, with snacks, refreshments and sandboarding along the way. Early morning, day and sunset and night departures run year-round, with free Dubai hotel pickup included. No driving licence needed - after a short briefing, you take the wheel yourself.
Tours start from AED 1,000 per buggy for a one hour drive, and the price covers the buggy, the guide, all safety gear and hotel pick-up. Our dune buggy Dubai price guide breaks the cost down by buggy and duration, and the dune buggy rental in Dubai page explains how self-drive works if you have never driven one before. The full line-up sits on the dune buggy Dubai tours page.
