Luckily for us we were the only ones on the tour so it made it even more special. Our guide Fuhad was very knowledgeable and excitable whilst talking about the falcons. We saw the hospital and watched as one falcon had their talons and beak trimmed. My husband then fed one and could hear every crunch of the bones. Had a great tour and thoroughly enjoyed.

First, I was picked up by Shijar, who was great to talk about his life in the UAE with. He was filled with interesting information about architecture, culture and able to answer many misc questions I’ve had. He made the hour drive zoom by. Second, the actual tour of the falcon hospital was great. Falcons are such a big part of culture here and it was fun to learn more from doctors about how they care for them. Getting such a close look at the actual birds was amazing!

We’re thrilled to hear that Shijar made the drive engaging and enjoyable, sharing insights about UAE life, culture, and architecture along the way.

Such a wonderful experience. I would recommend this experience for anyone travelling to Abu Dhabi as a must do! The staff were so passionate and you really got a personal close up experience. It’s quite a small group that you’re with. Everything is included in this booking including the entry fee. You get picked up and worry about nothing. The whole experience lasts about 2 hours with a half hour drive each way if you’re coming from the city. Our driver was Shijar. He was on time and messaged beforehand to organise pickup for us. Our driver Shijar was even flexible with a drop off location so we could go somewhere for dinner afterwards which was incredibly kind of him. Thank you Shijar.

This tour was well organized. The driver reached out to me about the pickup time the day before the tour and arrived early to pick me up. The Falcon Hospital visit was fascinating and was a unique Emirati experience. We got to watch a minor surgery (trimming a falcon’s talons) and a feeding. We also had a chance to carefully hold a falcon. The small museums at the facility (one at the beginning of the tour and the other at the end) were educational. When the tour was over, the driver was waiting for me and drove me back to Abu Dhabi.
