If you have already driven in sand before then you can learn more from experts having decades of offroading experience in the UAE. This area offers a good mix of playable long set of dunes and broad ridge to test your off-road control.

Drive is open for all 4x4/4WD/SUV/AWD vehicle having 8-10 inches of ground clearance and front and rear tow hooks.

You can bring your family, friends and kids, but if you are absolute new to sand offroading it is better to drive alone first to learn offroading without any distractions.

Drive will start with detail briefing, followed by 3 hours of driving in sand dunes and then followed by a break for feedback and assessment session for each offroader.

WHAT YOU'LL LEARN?

We will teach you how to drive your vehicle offroad safely and learn the best offroad driving and recovery techniques. Even if you have never driven in sand before, you can still join and learn the art of off-roading with complete confidence and peace of mind.

If any newbie is looking for a radio then the Baofeng is low price in Dragonmart. 70 AED and they unboxed and tested before sale.

Thanks Gregory, We've had quite some newbies getting this radio lately. The UV5R is a classic with lots of whistles and bells and online tutorials (popular with the HAM radio community in USA). If you need info on programming, have a look at the Advices section:

Guys, is a licence required to use these radios in the UAE ? I was told this by the shop where I bought it, is that true?

Thanks and see you tomorrow!
 

A Radio license is required for commercial usage like security companies, construction companies, etc. For hobbyist using the radio in the desert, we prefer to use license-free to use frequency band (PMR446.0-446.1)
