In kleiner Gruppe: Falke 2 - Falknereierlebnis in Dubai

This was one of the best experiences I had while visiting Dubai and I highly recommend it. Located at a nature preserve outside the city, you will stop at a camel race track and see the camels being exercised in the cool morning air. There is also a breeding center and camel hospital nearby. Continuing on to the nature preserve you will pause to deflate the tires for better traction before moving on, watching the sunrise, with brief pauses for pictures and wildlife sightings. The driver was very accommodating if I wanted to stop and also made recommendations such as climbing to the top of a sand dune for great sunrise pictures. When you arrive to where the birds are there will be a rug and pillows for your comfort along with tea, water, and dates. You will then be introduced to the birds. Note: The actual birds that will be there can vary. I had five birds including a gyrfalcon, eagle, Harris hawk, and two owls, each with its own unique personality. It was amazing. One-by-one we flew all of the birds and you will have plenty of time with each one on your arm, including takeoffs and landings. Some birds do not like being touched and you will be instructed which ones you can touch and which ones you can’t. The falconers were excellent! Providing information about each bird, the significance of the birds to the culture, care of the birds, etc…. It was a great education and I can’t speak highly enough of them. They also had a lot of experience with getting the best pictures and videos so you should have an amazing record of your trip. My driver/ falconer was named Khan and he was fantastic. All good things come to an end and eventually we packed up and headed back. I had many questions and all of them were answered fully and I may have dozed off once or twice but I arrived back at the hotel and spent the next couple of hours enjoying the pictures and videos. I posted a few on my socials and they absolutely blew up. It was crazy. Again, I highly recommend this tour. You will have memories to last a lifetime.

Khan & Rahim were amazing. Couldn’t have asked for better. We were the only couple so it was great. 5 to 10am for us. Desert sunrise, animals, The birds are truly awesome. Learn all you can about them & ask every question. Worth every penny.

We spent the day learning about the history of falconry and about the different types of raptors that live here. We were able to handle each bird we met and watch them fly and take treats from our hands. It was an absolutely incredible experience and we made some great memories that we'll never forget. Khan was very knowledgeable and very kind. We will be back. Thank you! Zana and Victoria From California
