Essential Tour Information

Everything you need to know to ensure a comfortable and safe experience.

What To Wear

Desert mornings can be surprisingly cold, especially from November to March, so wear layers you can take off as the sun comes up. Choose comfortable, closed-toe flat shoes, since the landing site is sandy and uneven and you will need to climb in and out of the basket. Bring a cap or hat: the burners overhead give off heat during the flight. Avoid long, loose scarves and high heels.

Safety Policy

All flights operate under UAE General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) regulations. Every guest receives a safety briefing before take-off and must sign a waiver form on-site. Flights only go ahead in safe weather and may be rescheduled or cancelled if conditions are unsuitable. All transfers use 4x4 vehicles carrying a maximum of 6 guests.

Safety & Tour Requirements

Guests must be aged 5 to 80, moderately fit, and able to climb in and out of the balloon basket without help. Pregnant women cannot fly. Ballooning is not suitable for guests with heart conditions, severe knee or back problems, major surgery in the last 6 months, or a fear of heights. Passengers over 119 kg (260 lbs) must purchase an additional seat.
