  Khan and Muhammad were awesome guides. From pickup point to breakfast and drop off, they not only taught us about the falcons but about Dubai in general. Interacting with the birds was awesome and they do a great job of capturing the experience. Highly recommend this unique opportunity?

• Highlight of our trip!

  This private tour was among the top 10 experiences of my entire life. Mohammed and his team were absolutely amazing professionals. Communication was outstanding. Hotel pickup was right on time. They had coffee and dates set out on a beautiful carpet in the desert reserve when I arrived. They explained everything about the 5 different birds of prey to me. I had the opportunity to fly, feed, pet and pose with each of the 5 birds all while they took professional quality photos and videos for me with my phone. This was simply the BEST. Thank you so much. I would do this tour again in a MINUTE!

  The Royal Shaheen Falconry Team was wonderful! We interacted with 5 different birds and learned alot about how the birds are trained. The whole environment of the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, a Beautiful Sunrise, and the Breakfast at the Al Maha Resort Hotel was top notch! The additional stop at the Falcon Museum was very educational as well. This is a "must do" if you visit Dubai!!

  This was the most amazing experience. When they say small-group it was just our group of four which made it a very special experience. Our falconer, Werner, was extermely informative. He picked us by from our accommodation and provided us with information about Dubai and the falcons all the way out to the Conservation Reserve. We had a brief stop before continuing to where falcons, barn owl and hawk were. It was a very pleasant expereince to be able to drink coffee and eat dates in such a wonderful environment. We learnt so much about the various birds and it was a real priviledge to be able to actually experience these birds up close. Having them land on the glove was unbelievable. It was really nice to see that the falconers and handlers are so passionate about these birds, they ensure the birds are enjoying what they are doing and that they are not being exploited or exposed.
  After we finished the falconry experience, Werner drove us around the reserve and pointed out the various animals and provided us with information about each of the various species. After another short stop we made our may back to our hotel. Once again Werner provided wonderful commentary and whilst it was a very early start it was well worth the lack of sleep. The time went so quickly but it was much an unbelievable experience.
  If you have the opportunity to this experience do it!
  Royal Shaheen are to be commended for this experience, it was so very well organised and it was a pleasure to meet Werner and to gain an understanding of the work he is doing in Dubai. We would recommend this tour to everyone, and if we get the opportunity to go back to Dubai we would do this tour again.
  Thanks Royal Shaheen and Werner for making this such a wonderful experience for our group. Special thanks to Dory, Tesla, Seeker, Sally and Dave - keep flying, you have all made a lasting impression and given us an acceptional experience which will stay with us for life. You deserve 10 stars!
