At Port Rashid, you will board your 4-wheel drive vehicle for the exciting journey to the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve. In the 1960's, Sheikh Rashid bin Saeed al Maktoum became concerned about the disappearance of the country's wildlife, particularly the Arabian Oryx (a type of antelope), and so he established this reserve as a place where animals could roam safely. This vast tract of land is also home to a luxury spa that attracts visitors from all over the world. Your driver will stop frequently so that you can take photographs as you head to an exclusive and private, lively Arabian campsite, not open to the public. Here, you will first enjoy a memorable camel ride before relaxing over a delicious barbeque served with beer and wine. Your entertainment continues with a traditional belly dancing performance. Afterwards, you will return to your 4WD vehicle for the captivating return journey across this spectacular landscape, before arriving back at your ship.
