overview

This program allows the students to completely immerse themselves into Bedouin life. Students will explore the starry desert skies, search for nocturnal animals and will meet a local Bedouin and everything from the UAE Cultural Program.

No other vehicle offers a more authentic desert safari experience to spot exotic local wildlife within the pristine Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve. Watch the sun drop under the horizon as you watch a falcon soar around you. Your Bedouin camp, lit with the gentle flames of traditional lamps is nestled inside a private Royal desert retreat.

As our guest, we will demonstrate cultural activities such as henna, music, dance, bread making and Arabic coffee making before enjoying a scrumptious dinner under the stars. After dinner, relax beside a bonfire and enjoy the star filled night sky.

Your camp site is inside a traditional Arabic tent complete with mattress, pillows and sleeping bags. In the morning, awake to the smell of freshly brewed coffee, and a freshly cooked Arabic breakfast. You will also hear fascinating tales first-hand from a local Bedouin who will be joining you for breakfast.

Please note: This trip excludes travel to and from School.
