Experience the grandeur and majesty of Liwa desert in Empty Quarter (Rub-al-khali).

The largest continuous sea of dunes spread across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, and Yemen.

What you will find here:

  • Tallest sand dunes (300 meters)
  • Steepest incline and drops
  • Longest side sloping
  • Broad ridge riding
  • Fast heartbeat

Its every offroader's dream to visit Liwa desert and dunes at least once to witness the maximum scale of sand dunes existence. Though an unforgiving terrain, LIWA still welcomes offroaders who are sensible and respectful to drive through such an enormous sea of sand dunes.

Hi Srikumar, please include me in waiting list for this awe inspiring empty quarter drive. Tx , Good day.

This place is daunting me to drive on it from the day I visited with my Chrysler almost 3 years ago while I was on official trip. I hope that my long awaited time has come now, to get this chance through Carnity to drive on it. Kindly WL me pls.
