On this unique 4x4 adventure you will get to see the diverse and lesser-known interior of the Emirates in a way that very few visitors to the country do. Your nature guide will lead the way (and communicate with the convoy using walkie talkies) while you head towards the East along lesser-known routes and adventurous offroad trails. Multiple visits and short walks along the way will give you a deeper insight into the geography, nature, and rural life of the Emirates, known to most for its large cities Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

    Mahafiz

    After admiring the national tree of the Emirates - the Ghaf tree - we venture into an ancient river bed where we see how climate change shaped the landscape, how plant life has adapted and how fossils can still be found in the ancient limestone rocks amidst the desert. Intimate camel encounters highly likely!

    Al Madam

    The Journey continues to the East along across a vast alluvial plain dotted with acacia trees reminiscent of the African savannah. We learn how ancient rivers have transported volcanic rock from the Hajar to form still visible remnants of river banks. More camel encounters assured here, and if we are lucky we will spot some feral donkeys!
