The Heritage Desert Safari offers a cultural adventure like no other, transporting you to the heart of Dubai’s desert heritage. Ride through the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve in a vintage 1950s Land Rover, spotting native wildlife along the way. Witness a falconry demonstration, soak in the magic of the desert sunset, and experience a traditional Bedouin welcome at an authentic desert camp. End the night with live cultural performances, henna painting, shisha, and a delicious Emirati dinner under the open sky.
