Description

Enjoy a full-day adventure packed with activities allowing you to experience the desert in a completely unique way. Soar over the desert in a hot air balloon, zip through the dunes on a quad bike, eat delicious food, and ride on a camel and horse all in the one tour.
Start your adventure early in the morning with a pickup from your Dubai accommodation. Kick-start the day with a hot air balloon flight over scenic Dubai. Partake in an a mesmerizing experience that you will cherish for years to come. Your guide will choose the most suitable take-off site for the day’s flight, depending on the direction and the strength of the winds.

Arrive at the takeoff location and be welcomed with refreshment coffee, tea, and water. Enjoy watching the ground crew prepare the balloon envelopes and baskets. After a quick safety briefing, gather around your basket while your pilot begins the thrilling process of inflation. Climb into the basket and begin to peacefully float off the ground and ascend into the sky.

Follow the staff’s instructions and get safely tucked into the basket as the ascent starts. Your journey to 4000 feet in the air is peaceful and exhilarating at the same time.

Upon landing, get picked up for your morning desert safari in the deep desert with an experienced desert safari driver. Head to a Bedouin camp where you will enjoy a Quad bike ride over the dunes.

Eat a delicious gourmet breakfast in a traditional Bedouin camp. Capture the sunrise and the scenic views of the Margham desert with your cameras. Experience the UAE's oldest traditional sport, ‘Falconry’. Sit a falcon on your forearm and feel like a character from the Arabian Nights tales.

After enjoying the wonderful ride and activities, travel via 4x4 SUV with a licensed driver back to your accommodation.
