Motocross rental, KTM rental, dirt bike rental: is it the same price?
People search for "motocross rental Dubai", "KTM rental Dubai" and "dirt bike rental Dubai". With us, all three lead to the same ride and the same prices: the guided KTM Dirt Bike 450 CC in the Al Badayer dunes at AED 850 for 1 hour, AED 1,250 for 2 hours or AED 1,450 for 3 hours, per bike.
Two things are worth knowing before you compare prices with other listings:
- It is a guided desert ride, not a bike you take away. You ride with a guide in the dunes and hand the bike back at the end. We do not rent road motorcycles or motorbikes for riding around the city.
- It is not a motocross track session. You follow a guide across natural dunes rather than riding laps of a built track.
When you compare, check what each price includes. Ours includes racing gear, a helmet, collarbone and knee protection, goggles, fuel, a briefing and training, and a guide who rides with you.
What is included in the price?
You do not pay extra for any of the following on a KTM ride:
| Included | What it means for you |
|---|---|
| Racing gear: pants, jacket and gloves | You do not need your own riding clothes, only comfortable sports clothes underneath |
| A crash-resistant helmet | Fitted at the meeting point before you ride |
| Collarbone and knee protection | Protection where riders need it most on a dirt bike |
| Goggles | Keep sand out of your eyes |
| Fuel | The bike is fuelled for your ride |
| A briefing and training from an instructor | The controls, off-road safety in the desert and what to do in an emergency |
| A guide who rides with you | Sets the line across the dunes for the whole ride |
That list is why a dirt bike ride costs more than renting a vehicle by the hour. You are not just paying for the bike. You are paying for the kit, the fuel, the training and a guide who rides with you, in one price.
Which ride length should you choose?
The 1 Hour Ride, AED 850 per bike
The 1 hour slot is a warm-up plus about 40 minutes of riding. It suits riders who want a taste of the Al Badayer dunes on a full-size enduro bike, riders who are short on time, and anyone riding in the heat of summer, when a shorter session is kinder on the body.
The 2 Hour Ride, AED 1,250 per bike
Two hours gives you time to settle in after the warm-up and ride more of the dunes with your guide. If you ride regularly at home, this is the option most likely to feel like a proper session rather than a taster.
The 3 Hour Ride, AED 1,450 per bike
Three hours is for riders who want a long day in the sand. Plan your energy: dune riding is physical, and a long session uses your legs, arms and core. There is no shame in a shorter ride, and you can always book again.
| If you are... | Consider |
|---|---|
| Short on time or riding in summer heat | 1 Hour Ride, AED 850 |
| A regular rider who wants a proper session | 2 Hour Ride, AED 1,250 |
| An experienced rider who wants a long day out | 3 Hour Ride, AED 1,450 |

Is a 30 minute quad or buggy ride enough?
For most first-timers, yes. Thirty minutes is enough to learn the controls, follow the guide across the dunes and decide whether you want more next time. If you already know you love it, the 1 hour and 2 hour options give you more time on the sand. The Single Seater Sports Quad Bike and the Raptor 700 manual start at 1 hour.

What is not included in the ride price?
The ride price covers the items listed in the table above and nothing else. Everything below is optional and priced on its own, or not part of the ride:
- Transfers. Driving yourself to the emailed meeting point costs nothing. A Private Transfer is AED 450 per car and a Sharing Transfer is AED 175 per person.
- Add-ons. The camel ride, sandboarding and the BBQ camps are priced per person.
- Your own clothes. You arrive in comfortable sports clothes and closed shoes; the riding gear is provided.
- Food and drinks. Bring water for the drive. Dinner is part of the BBQ camp add-ons only.
If you are unsure whether something is part of the price, ask before you book. We would rather answer the question than have you surprised on the day.
Questions to ask yourself before you book
- Who is riding the KTM? Only riders aged 18 and over with off-road experience.
- How long do you want to ride? 1, 2 or 3 hours on the KTM; 30 minutes to 2 hours on most quads and buggies.
- How are you getting there? Drive yourself, add a Private Transfer for up to 5 to 6 people, or a Sharing Transfer for two or more from one pickup location.
- What time suits the season? Start times run from 5:00 AM to 8:00 PM. In summer, early morning and evening are the comfortable choices. Read the best time for a dirt bike ride in Dubai.
- Do you want anything else in the desert? Add a camel ride, sandboarding or a BBQ camp on the same booking form.
Glossary of price terms
- Per bike: one KTM 450 with one rider.
- Per quad: one quad bike. The Double Seater Quad Bike carries two people for one quad price.
- Per buggy: one dune buggy with 2 or 4 seats, whoever is in it.
- Per person: used for add-ons and the Sharing Transfer.
- Per car: used for the Private Transfer, for 5 to 6 people.
Ways to get the most from your budget
- Match the ride to the rider. A first-timer on a quad enjoys the dunes more than a first-timer on a KTM, and pays less.
- Share a vehicle where it makes sense. A 4 seat buggy is priced per buggy, so a family rides together in one vehicle.
- Choose a sharing transfer if two or more of you are travelling from the same pickup location and do not need a private car.
- Start with the 1 hour KTM option if you are unsure how long you will enjoy riding on sand.
- Drive yourself if you have a car: the meeting point is emailed free of charge.
Common mistakes when budgeting
- Assuming the price is per person. KTM prices are per bike, buggy prices per buggy and quad prices per quad.
- Forgetting the drive. Allow 45 to 60 minutes each way, or add a transfer.
- Booking the KTM for a beginner. It is for experienced riders aged 18 and over only.
- Booking a sharing transfer alone. It needs two or more people from the same pickup location.
