Recommended Posts

Join us to explore Al Qudra Desert to find what's beyond Qudra lakes

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.

@Taimur Khan this is the perfect drive for you to start with. We wont be doing any thing crazy, the drive is designed for first timers in the desert. It will give you a feel of what it is like to drive in this terrain and also help you understand how your vehicle reacts in sand. 

As far as bringing family is concerned, we don't stop you but would advise you to not let it become a distraction to you during the drive as driving in the desert requires your full attention.
