Summary

Choose to take your flight and desert trip on the same day or over two different days. Then, at your chosen time, travel independently to the seaplane dock on Dubai Creek and board your shared, 9-passenger Cessna aircraft. Fasten your seatbelt, and after a safety briefing, take off from the creek waters. Admire the bird’s-eye views of the Arabian Gulf as you climb to up to 1,500 feet (457 meters), and take an aerial tour of Dubai’s landmarks. Swoop around Burj Al Arab and Burj Khalifa, and gaze down at stunning Palm Jumeirah island. Then, soar above The World, the artificial islets arranged like a world atlas, and finish your flight with a water landing on the creek. Afterward, or on another day, hop inside a private, air-conditioned vehicle, and travel through the desert to the Al Maha Desert Resort and Spa. Nestled in the dunes of Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, this luxurious resort contributes to desert conservation, and functions as a plush hotel, spa, adventure resort, and showcase for the region’s Bedouin heritage. Enjoy a welcome drink on arrival, and take a 4x4 wildlife drive, led by an expert field guide. Drink in the serene beauty of the dunes on your off-road expedition, and watch for wildlife such as beautiful Arabian oryx and gazelle as your guide sheds light on the surrounding desert. Afterward, savor a delicious afternoon tea at Al Maha before enjoying free time to experience its facilities independently, perhaps swimming in the pool or enjoying spa treatments (additional cost). Finish with a Champagne sundowner drink in the desert, sipping on bubbles as the sun sinks below the dunes. Your tour then concludes with a transfer and drop-off back at your Dubai hotel. Please note: Children below the age of 10 years are not permitted in Al Maha Desert Resort and Spa.
