Double Seater Quad Bike
Ride two-up across the Liwa red dunes. A Double Seater ATV carries a driver plus one passenger on a back-rest seat — same thumb-throttle and automatic CVT as the single quad, just with a pillion spot behind you. Ideal for couples, parent-child duos (pillion age 10+) or anyone travelling with a nervous friend who doesn't want to ride solo.
What is the Double Seater Quad Bike?
The Double Seater is a two-seat version of our open-desert quad. The driver sits forward, the passenger sits behind on a cushioned seat with back-rest and hand grips. Same automatic CVT transmission as our singles, same thumb-lever throttle on the right handlebar, same hand-lever brakes. The difference is weight distribution — the quad corners slightly differently with two on board, so the lead guide takes it a touch slower than the single convoy.
It's popular with couples who want to ride together without two separate quads, parents with teenage kids (pillion age 10+), and travellers whose partner doesn't want to handle a machine but still wants the wind-in-hair open-desert ride. No driving license required — off-road on private desert land.
Price is on request per quad for 30 minutes (that's on request per person if you do the math — cheaper than two single quads). 1-hour and 2-hour durations available on WhatsApp. Driver minimum age is 18; pillion 10+.

Certified Guides, Inspected Fleet
Every quad in our Liwa fleet is operated under DTCM licensing. Each machine is inspected before every session by our fleet team — brakes, throttle cable, tire pressure and fuel. Every rider wears a DOT-approved helmet and anti-sand goggles — non-negotiable.
Lead guides are MEAI-certified off-road instructors. They ride ahead on a Raptor, pick the safe line through soft sand and avoid hidden drops. Group speed is set to match the least experienced rider. If you raise a hand the whole group stops, no questions. First-aid kit in every vehicle.
What To Wear
- 👕 Light long-sleeve top — keeps the sand off

- 👟 Closed shoes — sneakers or trainers
- 🕶️ Sunglasses (we also provide goggles where applicable)
- 🧴 Sunscreen SPF 30+
- 🧣 Light buff or scarf for wind/sand protection
