A very exciting off-road driving sport is the Dune Buggy ride at Dubai Desert. The adventure begins when you are picked up from your accommodation in Dubai. After you reach the desert, you are received with a traditional Emirati welcome with the serving of Arabian Qahwa, a refreshing drink that has been entwined with the culture and heritage of this exotic land for ages.
You may also enjoy coffee, tea or other beverages if you prefer.
