Best Bird Safari Ever! - So good- Khan picked us up and it was non stop amazing. First we stopped at the camel races, then went into the animal reserve and saw Ornyx and antelopes wandering the desert landscape. Then we flew 5 birds Peregrene, Desert Eagle Owl, Barn Owl, Harris Hawk and An Eagle. 🦅. Then the finishing touch was the amazing private resort for breakfast. We highly recommend this tour.

Khan,the perfect guide and also the "around" was super fit..The early rise is definitely worth it - Khan was the best guide we ever had. he could answer any question patiently, responded to extra requests and had a lot of background knowledge. You can tell he loves his "babies." A true animal i.e. Bird friend!
wor can absolutely recommend him.
Also the breakfast was 1a!

Memorable Falconry Experience in the Desert! - My wife, five-year-old daughter and myself really enjoyed this excursion. The 5 AM hotel pickup was a little rough (waking up early), but everything went smoothly. Our guide was personable and provided lots of information on falconry and local culture.
The location was stunning, a wonderful desert nature preserve. Got up close with five birds of prey, had them fly many times to all our fists and took plenty of pictures and videos. My daughter especially loved the two owls; there was also a falcon, hawk and eagle.
Definitely worth it, so glad we went!

One of a Kind Experience - Amazing! One of the coolest things we've ever been lucky enough to do. A once in a lifetime experience. Seriously, if you're considering doing this, do it. DO IT. The company was very responsive and easy to book with, directly. Khan was a great host - funny, informative, spoke fluent English, and took wonderful photos. And the birds - they are fascinating. The highlight of our trip to Dubai.

Incredible!! - Awesome experience to interact with these amazing animals. Far exceeded our expectations. From the timely pick up at our hotel in a comfortable vehicle, we traveled to the Dubai Camel Race Track to view a pre dawn practice race. Then it was out to the desert for a beautiful sunrise looking out to the mountains in Oman. Then the highlight, getting to fly, handle, feed and even do a couple of tricks with 5 different birds of prey. Our guide was patient, thorough, informative and never rushed our experience. After our time with the birds, we went to a 5 start resort in the desert for an incredible breakfast and even got visited by a gazelle while dining. My wife and I have traveled the world and had many private and intimate tours and this was one of the best. Can't recommend enough, and don't skip the breakfast option. This was so worth the cost and very special with just two people.

Falconry - What an incredible experience! Very educational and exciting. We were able to fly a falcon, a hawk, an eagle, and two different species of owls. Our tour guides/trainers, Khan and Ali, were very personable and professional. Highly recommend!

Falcons and camels in the desert! - Our guide Khan was friendly and knowledgeable. My friend and I were delighted to visit the camel racetrack, watch the sun rise in the serene desert, and to watch and hold five beautiful birds. We came away with amazing memories, photos, and videos.

Amazing experience! - We thoroughly enjoyed the falconry experience in Dubai. Our guide Mohammed Amin was friendly, knowledgeable and very experienced in what he does. We could feel his love for these birds and the bond he has with them.
I highly recommend this experience to anyone wanting to do something different during their time in Dubai.

Amazing Falcon Dubai Safari Experience - The Falcon Dubai Safari was truly unforgettable! Watching the falconry demonstration up close was a unique experience, and the dune bashing was thrilling. The sunset views were breathtaking, and the camp activities—camel rides, henna, live shows, and a delicious BBQ dinner—made the evening perfect. Everything was well-organized, making it a must-do adventure in Dubai!
