Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve (DDCR) With Luxury Ride

Enjoy a luxurious range rover through the UAE’s largest national park, the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve (DDCR). It is a highly protected nature reserve in the country and encompasses five percent of Dubai’s total land area. This region is enclosed to conserve the natural flora and wildlife. There are more than 50 plant species, 120 birds, 43 mammals, and reptiles.

The conservation guide educates you about the success story of landscape and animal preservation. When the guide is telling you stories look for the desert critters. These desert critters are such as gazelles, Arabian Oryx, desert monitors, plentiful birdlife, and possibly the rare Gordons wildcat. The desert lake, which provides a magnificent shelter for migrating birds, is an excellent location for photography.

This guided tour of the Dubai desert’s flora and fauna is aimed to assist visitors in identifying different species. The guide describes how they live and dwell in this region. Moreover, you will get a better knowledge of how they thrive in the severe circumstances of the Arabian Deserts. A photo opportunity will be provided at the gorgeous royal lake, which is also a bird sanctuary.

After your safari, arrive at the magnificent Al Maha Resorts in the midst of the desert for a delicious and healthy 5-star gourmet breakfast. You will experience a spectacular view of the enigmatic deserts from the deck.
