Ride the Yamaha Raptor 700cc Sport Quad on the Red Dunes of Dubai
The Yamaha Raptor 700 is the quad we keep for riders who want the real thing. It is a full-size sport ATV with a 686cc liquid-cooled, fuel-injected engine that pulls from low revs, a manual 5-speed gearbox with reverse, and long-travel suspension (about 9 inches at the front and 10 inches at the rear) that soaks up the ridges of Al Badayer, the red-sand desert around Big Red on the Dubai–Hatta Road (E44).
The price is simple: AED 400 per quad for 1 hour. The Raptor is a 1 seater, so every rider gets their own bike, and every ride is private: a BNB guide leads your group only, sets the pace and picks the dunes to match your skill. Add a private hotel transfer for AED 350 (up to 6 guests), or book the Yamaha Raptor 700cc + shared transfer package instead.
New to quads, or riding with a partner or kids? Our 620cc quads are the easier start, from AED 150 on the Early Bird quad tour and the afternoon quad tour, with 2 seater options. See every quad bike tour in Dubai, compare the 1 seater quad bike rental options, or visit the BNB Travel & Tours home page.
“The Raptor 700 is the quad I ride myself. It is a sport machine with a clutch and gears, so I always ask guests one question first: have you ridden a manual bike before? If yes, it is the most fun you can have on four wheels in the dunes. If not, we start you on a 620cc and you will be ready for the Raptor next time.”
— M. Faisal, Camp Manager, BNB Camp Al Badayer
