Dune bashing

Fatcat's picture

Does anybody know of a good company who does this type of trip? I called Gulf Adventures but they want to put 6 people in one car, which I'm not comfortable with. If anyone knows of another company, please let me know.
Thanks

The cars are big 4x4s, they easily take 6 people. We've never had a problem with Gulf Adventures.

If you want someone else though, they are listed in Marhaba.

hashimozotoyama said BEWARE ...

Dune bashing is officially illegal... meaning you loose all insurance liability in case of an accident or injury. Checkout youtube and you'll see how wild things get out there. Been there myself (sea line) but wouldn't take my family there for a picnic. I mean driving in Qatar is bad enough on roads, what do you expect off road?

You'll be insured if you go with a tour company. Indeed, Gulf Adventures even have a link to the accident policy of their insurance company.

Just an update. The dune bashing was amazing, the driver (Nasser) was so skilled, we had a blast. Wish I hadn't eaten breakfast, though, lol.
I highly recommend Marwan and Nasser!

Call Marwan, they organize it for a minimum of 3 people. Mention Qatar Living and Novita and he'll give you a discount. Just don't have breakfast before you go if you think you might get car sick ;)

heero_yuy2 said Re:Fatcat ...

Uhhh...there's a thing called 'professional' dune bashing?

I'm thinking...what does it look like?

If you've managed to drive a Mini-Coupe and still bash the dunes...then THAT is what I call 'professional'!

Ah really can you go dune bashing with a mini coupe??

heero_yuy2's picture

heero_yuy2 said Whut did I tell ya, DaRuDe? ...

If somebody can do that, I'm impressed he's a pro alright.

It'll be easy for him to try the rest of the cars, trucks, hummers and such...

Fatcat said heero_yuy2, my humble ...

heero_yuy2, my humble opinion is that dune bashing with anything other than a 4x4 with someone who doesn't have the experience is pretty stupid.

 

DaRuDe's picture

DaRuDe said ok IF somebody can do that. ...

Na never seen that a mini coupe going through dune in my 13 life stay here in UAE KSA or Qatar.
But ea sure have seen Lexus Saloon car and Merc 320 going pretty smooth in dunes.

Fatcat said heero_yuy2, I don't think ...

heero_yuy2, I don't think it's easy to do dune bashing... Did you know there are quite a few serious accidents caused by people who think they can do dune bashing when in fact they can't.

 

heero_yuy2's picture

heero_yuy2 said I know it sounds stupid, fatcat ...

Some people just got talents, that's all...

Now, I wonder if somebody can drive a limo in the dunes...the long ones...

When you're using an instrument, you also need to feel the environment. It also has a heart of its own. Once you've captured the essence, any instrument you use will work on it, no matter how it sounds impossible.

It's a fact of life.
