Where we were you had to be 16, and the hotel rep will not let you ride a double, but you can do a double from outside sellers, still the age 16 though i am afraid.
My daughter wanted to go, she was 6 at the time but an adrenalin junkie already! she was gutted, and so was i as i had to stay back at the hotel with her!
I can see the risks, the terrain is bad in places, and someone on my ex's group came off and badly broke their leg.

Is it possible for my son to ride on the back with me?
I don't think so, Thomson state no under 16s.
It is a safety issue, they are really rough. The Egyptians thou do make different rules as they go a long though and only one or two companies do ride a double back quad, for insurance purposes, the tour operators only do singles.
I think you will have to wait until you get there and ask the many men selling trips in Naama Bay and a long the Promenade, thats where i saw double quads.
I think you should explain to your son, and make enquires private when out there, that way he wont be too upset.

Thoe links were very helpful, can you do the quad biking at night?
apparently its really fun and much cooler of you go around sunset.

Hi 
Not sure about night quad rides, but I expect our good man Swisssinai will be able to answer that one for you

We did this in Hurghada, FANTASTIC. Needed sunglasses to protect eyes from sand, someone bought plain plastic pair of glasses from the hotel for a couple of quid - brilliant idea for the night ride back. Look pretty stupid with sunglasses on in the dark quite apart from not being able to see where you're going! Will probably reach speeds of 60k dark or not.
Buy your tea towel headress from the bazaar before you go and ask them to show you how to put it on, the organisers probably sell them when you get to the quad location but they'll cost you twice as much (they'll put it on for you as well, whether you buy theirs or not).

They do a lot of the quad biking at sunrise to avoid the heat of the day, and yes, the head scarves are a lot more expensive from the trip organisers. Also, dont wear anything you plan to wear again! trainers, clothes or anything, it gets very very dusty!

Hi
Could anyone tell me if there is some kind of Jeep Safari where we can drive and/or quad biking excursion in or around Sharm El Sheikh. I intend to be going in August 06 with my two children aged 9 & 13.
Any help or info would be much appreciated.

if you really wanna have some fun on the quads dont book through your tour operator as i did (thomson). thay tack you in a big group and you cant really go that fast. we asked one of the guys that run the trip after why we couldent pick up some speed but he said it was down to safety, but said you can book a private trip in a smaller group and you can see what those quads can really do 
what cc are the quads that they use and would they allow a 12 yr old on a quad on his own. i know many think that this is dangerous but has he has his own quad bike and rides enduro every week he knows the dangers.
