UAE/Dubai: Dune Bashing in Dubai

Here’s another must-do experience in Dubai that has been on my list for a while and I finally crossed it off – dune bashing in the endless dune fields southeast of the city. As the sun colors the dunes red, hundreds of cars traverse the dunes, raising dust and sand clouds and chasing each other up the dune crests. It’s fun to hold on as your internal-beam reinforced Toyota truck almost flips over at every turn. A brief stop for sunset and off you go again! It’s certainly a rather commercial and a bit crowded experience but still a lot of fun! Next time – I drive myself!
