Charge into the Lahbab red dunes in a Can‑Am Maverick Sport 1000CC and experience high-speed desert driving just 40 minutes from Downtown Dubai. This one‑hour excursion mixes technical dune runs, sandboarding, and a chilled majlis area for post-ride recovery.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
A wind-blown morning on the red dunes of Lahbab feels like the landscape is daring you forward: ridges roll and drop, sand hissing under tires as the Can‑Am Maverick responds with a muscular growl. You climb into a two-seat sport machine at Monster Experience, 40 minutes from Downtown Dubai, and the desert opens — long sweeps of orange sand, occasional scrub, and a horizon sharp against the sun.

Bring sun protection
Sunglasses, sunscreen, and a wide-brim hat for pre/post ride are essential—the sand reflects intense UV even in cooler months.
Use closed-toe shoes
Sturdy trainers or hiking shoes protect feet from hot sand and vehicle entry/exit; flip-flops are not recommended.
Hydrate before you go
Drink water before arrival and use provided bottled water after the ride to avoid heat fatigue.
Secure loose items
Bring a small dry bag or leave valuables in the air‑conditioned lounge—wind and bumps will dislodge unsecured items.
