As an integral part of desert life in Arabia, falconry goes back more than 2,000 years ago and is still extremely important to the heritage of Dubai. This is a unique opportunity to observe the world’s best-trained falcons and other birds of prey in an authentic setting in a Royal desert retreat. During this interactive falconry and birds of prey experience, our professional falconers will guide you through both ancient and modern training techniques.

After this spectacular interactive experience, enjoy a delicious breakfast in our authentic desert camps before embarking on an adventurous wildlife drive in the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, the UAE’s first and largest national park. You will get to spot and learn about some of the iconic desert dwellers such as the Arabian Oryx from a vintage Land Rover.

I can honestly say this is the most fantastic experience we have booked in Dubai. Our guide was so polite, friendly and had great knowledge of the land and the animals. The interaction with the birds of prey was incredible. We really enjoyed the ride on the beautiful camels. The breakfast was enormous and delicious. We finished with the safari where we saw Oryx and Gazelle. Thank you to all the staff from booking to the actual experience. All professional and made this such a magical trip.
