And learn the art of offroading in a versatile playground for your first off-road adventure.

You will learn to self-drive your vehicle from experts having decades of off-roading experience in the UAE. This area offers a good mix of playable long set of dunes and broad ridges to practice your off-road skills slowly but surely.

Hi all!

I drive a 2016 3.5L LWB Pajero with a couple of mods (2in lift kit, front and rear skid plates, ABS/Traction control kill switch).  

Have driven on a few dunes but no major off-road experience. And yes, my car has got enough ground clearance and has front and rear tow hooks/eyelets.

Looking forward to the drive!

I have 2020 Suzuki Jimny without any modification related to performance. I just installed a roof rack and on-board air compressor.

And my car has front/rear hooks and enough clearance.

I don’t have driving experiance in the desert.

Thank you.
