A quiet, private morning in the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve. Your Conservation Guide collects you in a luxurious Land Rover Defender and drives you deep into the reserve, explaining how the desert plants and animals survive and how the area is protected.
You stop at a remote lake that attracts migratory birds, look for oryx and gazelles, and then arrive at the world-famous Al Maha Desert Resort & Spa for a gourmet breakfast on the deck, with the dunes and grazing wildlife in front of you. The car is air-conditioned, so the tour is comfortable all year round.
