About this experience

Experience the true essence of the Emirati lifestyle in a traditional Bedouin village, where you are welcome to enjoy the traditional Arabic activities and Bedouin entertainment. We have prepared for you an authentic 3-course Bedouin dinner, including delicious desserts.

Your tour will begin with a pick up pick up at your hotel or selected location in Dubai. We will thereafter head out into the largest unfenced desert reserve in UAE. Don't miss out on spotting the native flora and fauna of the desert and its surroundings, such as medicinal herbs and plants, and the Al Ghaf tree, which is known as the UAE's national tree.

A very popular Bedouin tradition of welcoming the guests, is by offering rose water, so everyone can wash their hands upon arrival and enjoy the majestic scent. We are happy to greet you upon your arrival with a warm "Ahlan Wa Sahlan", meaning "Welcome".
