Off Road History Museum

Reviewed By IconicConciergeVan - Vancouver, Canada

You really have to see this place! I was very fortunate to not only see this amazing collection before it officially opened, but to get a private tour by His Royal Highness, Sheikh Hamad Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan. His Highness is one of the biggest car collectors in the world and has become famous as "The Rainbow Sheikh" but these days his heart belongs to Off Road Vehicles, and so he decided to create the world's first museum devoted to the all-wheel drive (so to speak). Yes, I am a car enthusiast but not really an "off-roader" ... but this massive collection, housed in several buildings with hundreds of cars, SUVs and trucks is unbelievable and will fascinate everyone. It shows the history of the all-wheel drive, displays all important brands with models from the early beginnings to modern times, and even has some of His Highness' most amazing one-off build on display, including Dhabiyan, considered to be the largest SUV in the world by Guinness World Records. The Off Road History Museum is a short 45min drive from Dubai and offers plenty of picture opportunities with some of the most amazing vehicles in the world. Highly recommended!
