Private Couple Dune Buggy Tour in Dubai With Your Own Guide
A couple dune buggy ride at BNB is simple: one 2 seater buggy, the two of you side by side, and a guide who rides in front and leads only your buggy. There is no mixing with other guests, so you set the pace, stop for photos when you want and share every climb together.
Every ride starts from our own camp in Al Badayer, near Big Red on the Dubai–Hatta Road (E44). Pick the Polaris RZR 1000cc for a relaxed, easy drive (AED 500 an hour), the Can-Am Maverick XRS 26 for a sportier feel (AED 800), or the 240 hp Can-Am Maverick R X RS if you both love speed (AED 999). Helmets, goggles, sandboarding, a short camel ride and water are included.
Honeymoon or anniversary? Book a sunrise Polaris ride or the red dunes afternoon tour for golden light. Want dinner and shows after? The safari + buggy combo is AED 399 per person. Compare every ride on our BNB Travel & Tours homepage.
“Couples ask me the same thing: who drives? My answer is both of you. We stop halfway on a high dune, you take photos, and you swap seats. The Polaris is the easiest for a first time; if one of you already drives off-road, take the Can-Am.”
— M. Faisal, Camp Manager, BNB Camp Al Badayer

Who Guides Couples on the Al Badayer Dunes?
Every ride runs from our own camp in Al Badayer under M. Faisal, camp manager at BNB. Born and raised in the UAE, he has more than 15 years in desert tourism and is licensed to operate and guide quad bike, dune buggy, camel and horse riding activities.
On a couple ride your guide leads only your buggy, so the route follows your comfort, not a group. Drivers must be 16 or older, and passengers can join from age 3. Buggy rides are not suitable for pregnant guests or people with back, neck or serious mobility problems. Wear closed shoes and light clothes; we provide the helmet and goggles.
