Dubai is one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world. In 2016 alone, there were nearly 16 million overnight visitors to the city.
It is easy to see why so many people enjoy traveling to this city. It is a spectacular tourist destination with countless sites, including:
· The Dubai Museum
· Burj Khalifa
· Bastakia
· Sheikh Saeed Al-Maktoum House
However, getting around is a challenge for many people. The city’s public transportation system is very different from other countries, such as Sweden and France. Fortunately, it is still easy to get around if you know how. One of the easiest ways to travel the city is with a quad bike.
I interviewed the experts at MXDubai to get some advice for tourists that want to take a quad bike there. If you are planning on riding a quad bike in Dubai, you will want to follow their tips.
Know the Best Times to Travel through the Desert
Dubai has one of the most beautiful deserts in the world. You can gaze at many different exotic creatures and see golden sands for miles as far as the eye can see.
However, you need to be careful when you go in the desert. The sun rays are very bright and the summer temperature is usually around 41 °C. Even in the evening, the low temperature is 30 °C.
It is best to travel the desert in the early mornings or after 6 PM. If you go in the desert at any other time of the day, you will want to wear enough layers to protect you from the harsh sun. Whenever you go in the desert, make sure that you bring plenty of water! It is easy to get dehydrated, since it is so warm even in the dead of night.
Watch Your Speed Until You Get the Hang of Your Quad Bike
Quad bikes are four-wheel vehicles that are easy to drive. However, they still take practice, just like any other type of vehicle.
You don’t want to go too fast while you are still learning to use them. Make sure that you get lessons and practice riding before you start accelerating.
Try Going on a Professional Safari
Some tourists try riding through the desert or major parts of Dubai on their own. This is not recommended. The area is beautiful and it is safe if you know where to go and what precautions to take. However, it is easy to get lost or end up in a bad area if you aren’t careful.
If you aren’t familiar with Dubai, it is a good idea to go with a professional safari. The guides will show you how to stay safe during your trip.
The safari that you choose will depend on a variety of things, including your budget and who you are traveling with. You don’t want to pay for a large, extravagant safari if you are traveling with young children or your elderly parents. You can end up leaving early if they are too tired for the trip, which means you will have paid for an experience that you can’t enjoy.
Keep Your Bike in Good Condition
Make sure that you don’t abuse your quad bike while riding through Dubai! You are going to depend on it to get you through the desert. The last thing that you want to do is break down in the desert, 15 miles away from the rest of civilization. Plus, if you are renting a bike, you can be billed for any misuse.
Keep it in good shape and you will be just fine throughout your Dubai trip!
