About this experience
Trade the sea for the desert for an afternoon. After a quick safety briefing you take the wheel of your own quad bike and follow a guide out through the wadis and open desert behind Dahab, with the jagged Sinai mountains all around. You'll stop at a Bedouin camp for sweet tea as the light turns gold, and ride back as the sun drops behind the peaks. Easy enough for first-timers, fun enough that you'll want to go again. Pair it with the Bedouin Dinner & Stargazing experience for a full desert evening.
