Where can I get picked up for a Dune Buggy Dubai tour?
Our dune buggy tours operate from Al Badayer Desert, Sharjah, UAE. Pickup can be arranged from many Dubai and Sharjah hotel locations, depending on the tour, vehicle and pickup arrangement. The exact pickup fee and availability should be confirmed when you book.
For guests staying in Dubai, useful pickup areas include Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina, JBR, Palm Jumeirah, Deira and Bur Dubai. Guests staying in Sharjah can also ask about pickup. Pickup from Ajman may be possible for selected arrangements, but should be confirmed before booking.

How Dubai hotel pickup works
- Choose your dune buggy tour and vehicle.
- Provide your hotel name, accommodation or exact pickup address.
- Confirm whether pickup is included, available for an additional fee, or whether you should meet at Al Badayer.
- Receive your confirmed pickup time. Desert travel time can vary with traffic and the day's tour schedule.
- Meet the driver at the agreed lobby or pickup point and travel to Al Badayer Desert.
Pickup or meeting point?
Pickup is not the same as the desert meeting point. Our operating location is Al Badayer Desert, Sharjah. Some bookings include or offer hotel pickup, while other arrangements may use a meeting point.
If you prefer to drive yourself, ask for the current meeting-point instructions before travelling so you arrive at the correct location.
Dubai to Al Badayer: what to expect
Al Badayer is outside central Dubai, so allow enough time for the journey. Traffic, hotel location, tour start time and desert conditions can affect the actual travel time. Rather than relying on a fixed journey estimate, use the pickup time confirmed for your booking.
