Is this a private tour?

Your vehicle, driver and Conservation Guide are private to your group, and the private-vehicle price covers a vehicle for your group only. At the village, the breakfast, activities and performances are shared with other guests, so it is a private transfer into a shared village rather than a village to yourselves.

Children aged 5 to 11 have their own rate, and a private vehicle is required for children under 5, so tell us the age of every child when you request. The operator's family pass covers 2 adults and 2 children aged 5 to 11 at the per-person rate with a shared hotel transfer.

How long is the camel ride, and can two people share a camel?

The camel ride to the Bedouin-style village lasts about 15 minutes, and a camel carries a maximum of two people.

What is for breakfast, and can dietary needs be catered for?

The operator lists a traditional Emirati breakfast with dishes such as balaleet (sweet and savoury noodles with eggs, flavoured with cardamom and saffron), chami cheese with dates, ragag bread with honey and luqaimat, with Arabic coffee, tea and camel milk among the drinks. Gluten-free, vegetarian and vegan diets can be catered for; tell us any allergies or special requirements when you request so they can be passed on before the day.

Is it suitable during pregnancy?

The nature drive is not recommended for guests more than six months pregnant. Tell us if anyone in your group is pregnant when you request, and we discuss it in our reply.

What is the cancellation policy?

Bookings of up to 4 guests can be cancelled for a full refund up to 24 hours before departure; inside 24 hours there is no refund.

About this experience

This is the daytime counterpart of the heritage evenings: an early start, a camel ride to a Bedouin-style village, a falcon up close and a breakfast built around Emirati dishes. It suits visitors who want the cultural side of a desert trip without a late night, and it returns you to Dubai between 10:30 AM and 12:00 PM.

At the village you see Bedouin tents, cooking stations and farm animals, and the breakfast is explained as well as eaten. The operator lists balaleet, which is sweet and savoury noodles with eggs flavoured with cardamom and saffron, chami cheese served with dates, ragag bread with honey, and luqaimat, the Arabic-style doughnuts with date syrup and sesame seeds. Drinks include Arabic coffee, tea and camel milk. Conservation Guides give a talk on the UAE's heritage, and young locals perform a traditional dance.

The nature drive takes place in the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, which covers about 225 square kilometres, roughly 5% of Dubai's land area, and is home to Arabian oryx and gazelles. Falconry is far older than the reserve: Bedouin communities across the Arabian Peninsula practised it for centuries as a way of hunting, and UNESCO inscribed falconry on its Representative List of the Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2010, with the United Arab Emirates among the countries that submitted it.

The experience runs only from 1 November to 30 April. The operator states that a portion of the safari fee is contributed towards local conservation in Dubai.
