The sport of falconry has been a part of desert life in the United Arab Emirates for hundreds of years; graceful birds of prey swoop through the sky to catch small game. In spite of the impression that such a sport would not take place in ultramodern Dubai, it is actually one of the epicenters of falconry in the world and is a beautiful location for viewing the skill of falconers and their trained birds. You may accomplish this in a number of ways. This private experience offers you the opportunity to enjoy two of Dubai’s natural desert attractions, wildlife and falconry, without the hassle of a group tour or the need to arrange logistics yourself. A private falconry session will follow the wildlife safari drive in the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve. Your falconer will teach you how to fly birds from your hand, demonstrate how to perform demos, and give you personal instruction. The Al Maha Desert Resort offers a breakfast upgrade.
