To get out there and have completely amazing adventure, sometimes you need to get off the beaten path. Some of those incredible Basi travel moments here you when you realise you are miles from anywhere with nothing but incredible views of raw natures beauty starting out as far as the eye can see.
There are adventures and then there are Xtreme Gap Year adventures. Very few things come close to being so awesome as a supercharged adventure in the desert. What better place to experience this than in Dubai, the undisputed king of petrol headed playtime. With the exciting adrenaline adventure that is the Dubai conneXon program we will take you out of the desert to explore the dunes and thrash away up and down them in a 1500cc custom Xtreme Dune buggy.
Yes that’s right you will take control drive yourself through 25 km course, guided of course as we don’t want you getting lost out there so you will be in safe hands which you will be grateful for what you are wheel spinning up a 70° sandy slope with the raw of the engine giving you goosebumps as you power over the crest of the dunes.
You’ll be amazed by how well these xtreme machines grip, they can pretty much take on anything the desert can throw at them and as an added bonus they are far safer than quad biking, the only restriction is you do need to know how to drive a manual and hold a driving licence to be given your own. If you do not have your driving licence or cannot drive a manual you don’t have to miss out, they are twin seaters and are skilled guides will give you the ride of your life sat next to them.
We tend to head out to the desert early morning or a couple of hours before sundown with the midday heat has subsided, so you’ll probably get the added bonus of amazing sunset as well.
Halfway through the trip we will stop to taking the amazing views and tryout sand boarding. We include transfer from your swanky hotel in Dubai, so at the end of the day you can remove the several tonnes of sand and prepare for an epic night out some of Dubai’s famous hotel venues.
The Dubai ConneXtion is a two night adventure in the United Arab Emirates perfect to enjoy on a stopover to get a taste of this iconic city the Xtreme way. We have groups start dates to combine seamlessly with our Asia and Australia programs so why not give yourself the added treat of two night’s you will never forget in the most exciting city in the Middle East.
