What is Dune Bashing Dubai?
The Dune Bashing is undoubtedly one of the best Desert Safari Dubai Activities one can try. Here, an expert driver drives a 4×4 vehicle like a Toyota Land Cruiser over the massive dunes, and bumpy areas in a desert. The ride will probably give you a lot of adrenaline because of the bumps and turns that you go through.
Is dune bashing a dangerous activity? It is not if the safety rules are followed. If you have never driven in the desert before then it is better to hire an expert driver instead of going for the self-drive.
It is also possible to undergo dune bashing with quad bikes which is a more adrenaline-pumping activity. This alternative will let you control the vehicle by yourself, and it will also add to your excitement.
