Desert Experiences

Discover the beauty of the UAE spanning far beyond the desert. Away from the dunes and the downtown lights, there’s a world of incredible natural wonder that can only be found by those who set out to discover it. Rugged mountains, hidden pools, and a day of breathtaking scenery await on a Wadi Adventure.

There’s only one way to learn about the desert lifestyle – live it. This complete desert experience brings students closer to the nature and culture that surrounds them than they’ve ever been before.  

No animal knows the desert like an Arabian Camel. Locally known as the ships of the desert, camels play a key role in Bedouin culture, and today act as an insight into the history and heritage of this way of life. Join us for a camel ride across the Dubai desert and walk in the footsteps of many generations before you, learning about the critical role that the camel plays in the country’s cultural landscape.

An Exclusive Desert Experience is where special occasions are transformed into evenings you'll always remember. The experience takes place in the most unique of settings, amongst the serene privacy and seclusion of the desert, serving as the backdrop to an evening that is designed to live long in the memory.

An Arabian Horseback Ride is a truly special way to experience the Dubai desert, acting as a throwback to generations gone by. Arabian horses have played a critical role in the development of Bedouin culture, and on this activity you will experience the friendship that Arabic culture shares with this unique species. We adhere to English style riding for this activity, requiring a minimum of 3 years experience for participating guests.

A Morning Safari across the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve takes students on a journey through the heritage, culture and wildlife of the Dubai desert. Seeing both sides of the DDCR, students will leave this trip with a sense of curiosity about the world they have just experienced.
