An unforgettable experience - It was an unforgettable experience. The view from above, plus the sunrise – a different, very special view of the desert. The in-flight hawk show was an entertaining encore. The organization was perfect, from booking and nice email correspondence with Pinal Chauhan to on-time hotel pickup. The delicious breakfast afterwards at the camp was a nice conclusion. Recommended: The extra video – professionally prepared, a great memory of this extraordinary morning.

Superb sunrise air balloon ride and safari experience - We absolutely loved the whole experience, the hot air balloon ride was just magical from start to finish. The pilot and his staff made you all feel very welcome and safe. We are a family with two girls aged 13 & 10 who were a little uneasy about the experience, but all their nerves were settled by the lovely staff upon our arrival. The balloon ride was exceptional, the beauty of the sunset and the falcon show mid air was a great treat! The lading was super fun also! Next was the desert safari, everything was super fun, well organised and we all had the most amazing time dune bashing, quad biking, camel riding and have created some amazing memories 🥰 thank you to the great team. Special mentions to Ms Pinal Chahun for the great communication and easy booking, and to Adnan our driver who was super friendly and the perfect guide. Would recommend this trip to anyone who wants an incredible morning making fabulous memories!

So worth it after an early morning start - Booked the trip with Leo in the UK but had a message, whilst in Dubai, to ask if we could bring our flight forward because their was a risk of not flying on our day because of wind conditions. This was no problem. Picked up early in the morning by Irf an for our journey to the desert and when we got there, the balloon inflation had already started. We were introduced to the falcon that was going to be flying with us. Once airborne the sun gradually put in its appearance and what a memory. Lovely journey for nearly an hour with the falcon and great fellow paassengers. The landing was a bit bumpy but a laugh was had by all. Big thanks for pilot Youssef and all the ground team. Certainly recommend and we also did the on flight video.

To do! - Beautiful experience and beautiful scenery. We had the chance to see gazelles. However, it is not a "show" of hawks as specified in the description but to see them in flight, you can also hold it on your arm. Good communication with the contact, Pinal Chauhan.
