What To Expect
Wake early and begin your hot-air balloon Dubai experience with a pickup from your Dubai hotel or central meeting point. Hop inside your air-conditioned minibus, and travel to the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve outside the city. After a scenic drive, arrive at the launch site, and watch as your hot-air balloon is inflated for your flight. Listen to a safety briefing before climbing inside the basket with an experienced pilot at the controls. Each basket holds up to 24 passengers, and there’s plenty of space for you to sightsee as you fly. As you rise higher, take in views of the sunrise, and hear commentary from your pilot about the geology and wildlife of the protected Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve.

Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve
After the flight, you' are driven to a private desert conservation reserve in a vintage 1950s Land Rover where you have the chance to freshen up at clean, private bathrooms.

5.00Everything was perfect. The flight is exceptional and we fly over the desert for over an hour. The breakfast is rich and refined for this type of outing. The exit in the nature reserve allows to see some animals and to take beautiful photos. This Jeep tour lasts 35 minutes and compensates for the desert safari.The sun-rise was beautiful. The whole experience was one I will never forget. It would be nice if they didn't charge so much for the souvenir video though, especially as it is download. The organization is perfect.
