Rates at Al Maha include full board as well as two desert activities per guest per day. This meant over the course of our two day stay we were entitled to four activities.
The resort offers both morning activities and afternoon activities,given that it cools off during those hours. The choices for activities include the following (see the links above for more details of the specifics):-- Falconry -- You will be guided to the display site to witness the traditional Arabic art of falconry.
-- Nature walk -- Your guide will interpret the amazing diversity of life in the desert and will provide an informative and educational experience on all the smaller desert wonders.
-- Ghaf tree walk -- A ten minute drive into the conservation area to a grove of Ghaf trees. Wander around our desert "forest" while your guide tells you more about these fascinating life-giving trees.
-- Horse riding -- A chance to see the desert from the back of an Arabian horse at dawn. This is for experienced riders only and an 85kg weight limit applies.
-- Desert drive -- A more extreme 4x4 drive in the dunes with beautiful desert scenery.
-- Wild life drive -- The ideal opportunity to see the notorious Arabian Oryx (Al Maha) and other indigenous fauna and flora.
-- Camel trek -- A 25 minute trek from the resort into the dunes, to watch the sunset and toast it with a drink.
-- Sundowners -- An alternative to the camels - a short trip in a vehicle out into the dunes to toast the setting sun.
-- Archery -- Suitable time to be negotiated with your guide.
