At the Emirati Falcon Hunting Camp, shaded by an ancient ghaf tree, you will be welcomed with traditional Arabic coffee and dates. Then, engage in the falconry experience by assisting in training greater spotted eagles, desert eagle owls, and Harris’s hawks. Each bird will be flown to your gloved fist for hands-on participation.
