Description :

Experience the Dubai of the 50s on a safari in a vintage Land Rover. After a comfortable pick-up from your hotel in an air-conditioned vehicle, you'll be driven to the heart of the royal desert lands to begin this heritage and nature adventure. On site, you'll climb aboard an open-top Land Rover, an icon of early Emirati desert safaris. You'll set off on an immersive drive through the conservation reserve's unspoilt landscapes, guided by a passionate expert. Along the way, you'll discover the region's iconic flora and fauna, such as Arabian oryx and gazelles, while learning about the desert's history and traditional Bedouin customs. As the sun sets, marvel at a falconry demonstration in the wild. This ancient tradition, deeply rooted in Emirati culture, is presented here in a breathtaking setting. The elegance of the falcon in flight against the orange horizon will remain one of the highlights of your excursion. The evening continues in an upscale Bedouin camp, inspired by royal retreats. You'll be invited to discover a range of typical activities: bread-making, henna tattooing, Arabic coffee tasting, camel rides and craft demonstrations. You'll share a traditional Emirati dinner served at a low table in an authentic setting, with several dishes featuring local flavors. To round off the experience in style, you'll enjoy interactive performances such as traditional drumming and the yola, the Emirates' emblematic dance. The evening ends in peace with an optional chicha and stargazing in the silence of the desert. Please note that children under 5 must be transported in a private car.
