Dubai is a place full of extremes. One moment you could be parasailing along the sunny beachfront of Jumeirah or the next moment you could be encountering penguins at freezing cold temperatures. One thing is for sure, you will not be bored while here.

Ski Dubai Penguin Experience

Join the penguins at Ski Dubai through this 40-minute penguin encounter. You’ll change into the thermal wear supplied at our advanced indoor facility located in Dubai. After that, you’ll enter the sub-zero temperature penguin area and watch an introductory video about the Gentoo and King penguins which feature here. Following the video, you will have a chance to meet and interact with 2 or more of the stunning birds while the trained staff looks on closely. After interacting with the penguins, you will be able to see them playing in and around their pool and diving into the water from the underwater viewing section.

Experience the lush scenery of Al Ain, ‘The Garden City,’ on this full-day tour from Dubai. Climb aboard your air-conditioned coach and journey across the desert to this beautiful and laid-back City, nestled at the foot of the rugged Hajar Mountains on the Oman border. Let your guide give you a historical overview of Al Ain, its picture-postcard Al Jahili Fort, former royal palace, two museums and ‘falaj’ irrigation channels. Let your feet cool off in the hot springs beneath Jebel Hafeet mountain, and end the day with a visit to the traditional camel market.

Dubai Sunrise Camel Trek with Breakfast

Experience riding in the Dubai desert dunes on camel, and walk along the camels on the desert dunes taking in a sunrise high above the dune in the early morning light. Enjoy a light breakfast served Arabic-style, in a Bedouin camp.

Heritage Morning Falconry and Wildlife Desert Safari

Wildlife Desert Safari

Falconry is a 2000-year-old pillar of desert life in the Arabian Peninsula and remains a very relevant part of Dubai’s heritage. This is a unique opportunity to view some of the best-trained falcons and other birds of prey in a custom-built facility in an authentic Royal desert setting. During this interactive experience, our knowledgeable falconers will share traditional and modern methods of training.

After this great experience, we will enjoy breakfast at our authentic desert camps and then begin an exciting wildlife drive in the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, the first and largest national park in the UAE, and search for, and create awareness of, the iconic desert-dwelling species of the Arabian Peninsula such as the Arabian oryx from the comfort of a luxury Range Rover or vintage Land Rover depending on the selected tour option.
