|---|---|---|
| Standard evening safari | AED 99 | AED 297 |

Children under 3 are FREE. Child prices and age eligibility vary by package. Do not assume that every operator has the same child rate or that every activity is suitable for every age. Provide the ages of all children when requesting a quote.
