From star gazing to camel trekking, the new 2016/17 tours, safaris and attractions from Arabian Adventures offers a host of new experiences for both visitors and residents of the UAE.

We wanted to offer both tourists and residents the chance to experience it in a completely different way, while still offering our must-do tours and safaris,” said Simon Mead, Manager of Operations. “We want to create memorable moments and a deeper understanding of the traditions of the region, and hope that visitors will be enchanted by the desert and residents come away with a renewed sense of discovery about their home.”
