Immersive experience

We had a great host, Kammel, who was from the Philippines and had been in Dubai for several years. Transfers were on time and the tour itself was great. It was a very immersive experience with birds complimented by a knowledgeable and gifted falconer.

Exceptional experience

It was amazing from the very first moment. The guide was friendly and explained very well all of our questions during our pickup and vintage Land Rover drive and the Falconer did an amazing show! Very exciting and exceptional experience and a must-do with the family!
