Descriptions

As you float up into the sky, the horizon gradually changes into beautiful shades of yellow and orange. Depending on where you’re looking, you might see the Arabian sun rising either behind the Hajar mountains or over the desert dunes. At 4,000 feet, this is one of the best places in the world to see the sunrise. Furthermore, keep an eye out for Arabian oryx, gazelles, or wandering camels in the sand dunes below. Each hot air balloon adventure in Dubai lasts about one hour.

After enjoying the sunrise, the balloons will land at different spots in the desert each day, depending on the wind. Therefore, as you get ready to land, attach your belt clips to the basket and get into the landing position. The pilot will then tell you when it’s safe to get out of the basket. Meanwhile, you can watch other balloons land and see how the ground crew rolls up the balloon.

But the fun doesn’t stop there. Next, after your amazing flight, you’ll drive through the dunes in a vintage Land Rover to a special heritage camp in the Royal Desert Retreat. These 1950s Land Rovers, which were the first vehicles used in the desert, have been restored to look like new.

When you arrive at the camp, you can enjoy a 5-star breakfast in the desert. Savor eggs Benedict, shakshuka, salmon, caviar, halloumi cheese, fresh fruit, and more. Additionally, you can go on a camel ride, take photos with a falcon, or relax in the traditional majlis. Finally, when you’re ready, your driver will take you back to the city.
