What Sets It Apart / Why Choose 57 Heritage Safari

• Comfort & luxury: No rushing; dinner at proper tables, comfortable seating, attention to guest experience. 

• Scenic & tranquil environment: Being in the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, the environment is more pristine, less crowded. More opportunity for nature & wildlife. 

• Flexible options: Shared vs private, upgrades for stargazing, overnight stays, more adventurous add-ons. 

Who Is It For

This safari is especially good for:

• Culture lovers wanting a more traditional and heritage-oriented experience.

• Families, couples, or small groups who want comfort and elegance more than thrill rides.

• Nature and wildlife enthusiasts (those who enjoy spotting wildlife, quiet desert landscapes, sunset & star view).

• Guests who appreciate good food, ambient settings, and meaningful experiences rather than mass-tourism.

If you are more into high-adrenaline adventure (lots of dune-bashing, quad biking, etc.), you may want a package variant or explore “adventure safari” options instead. 57 Heritage Safari does offer some adventure add-ons. 

Tips for Enjoying It Fully

• Dress in light, breathable clothing, but bring something warmer for evening (desert nights can be cool).

• Wear comfortable shoes (closed-toe preferred).

• Bring sunglasses, a hat, sunscreen.

• A camera or good phone for photos — sundown & desert vistas are photogenic.

• Check the weather (heat, wind, etc.) and choose a day when conditions are favorable.

• If you want more privacy (e.g. special occasion), book a private-car version or private camp.

• Inform the operator of dietary restrictions in advance.

• Arrive punctually for pickup to avoid delays
