About this experience
Soar above the Dubai Desert at sunrise and witness breathtaking golden dunes from a peaceful hot-air balloon. Unlike ordinary desert tours, this experience lets you float silently over the sands, spotting camels, gazelles, and Arabian oryx below. Every flight is led by a licensed professional pilot with full safety briefing and personalized attention. Before take-off, enjoy Arabic coffee, tea, and dates, and after landing, celebrate with a flight certificate. Upgrade options include a buffet breakfast and vintage Land Rover or buggy rides for the ultimate desert adventure. This is Dubai’s most memorable sunrise experience—calm, scenic, and unforgettable.
