Horse riding · UAE HORSE RIDING TOURS
This is the shortlist you would send a friend: 5 uae horse riding tours worth the money, each with its price, its weight limit and the one thing to know before you commit.
Visit Al Salah Stud in Al Marmoom Desert Oasis for a guided 30 or 45-minute horse ride, Arabian horse displays, dates, tea and coffee. Guides such as Kamal, Tahir and Aleem help beginners feel secure, while optional hotel transfers simplify the long trip from Dubai.
“Everything was very good, the personal and the conditions were very good !”
Ride for one hour through Dubai’s Mushrif Park, moving from ghaf-tree paths to open dunes with an English-speaking escort. You’ll receive a safety briefing, wear a helmet, and finish by washing, grooming, untacking, and feeding your horse carrots. Roshan and Sampat are among the friendly hosts.
“Amazing experience, they have horses for advanced riders too and many opportunities to canter”
Spend about two hours on Dubai Creek aboard a traditional wooden dhow, with a vegetarian and nonvegetarian buffet, drinks, music, dance, and a horse show. Choose the upper deck for open-air views or the lower deck for a more sheltered meal. Pickup is available with selected options.
“The views were unbelievable! The host went above and beyond to ensure everything was on point! Excellent food, amazing shows, great atmosphere! Would highly recommend”
You’ll leave Dubai before dawn in a 4x4, watch the balloon rise over Margham, and float above the dunes for 60 to 90 minutes. English-speaking pilots, coffee, falcon photos, and hotel transfers are included. Deluxe and premium packages add breakfast and desert activities.
“Everything was communicated in a timely manner. Staff was friendly and helpful.”
Ride for 30 minutes on Hudairiyat Island with an English or Arabic instructor. Choose a beach ride, children’s pony ride, Full Moon Beach Ride, or swimming with horses. Bring water, sunscreen, and a hat, and confirm seasonal water access before booking.
“Very bad experience. During the ride, the horse suddenly acted aggressively which caused my wife to fall. Safety standards were clearly not adequate, and there was a lack of proper supervision. I do not recommend this experience at all.”
Pick a shoreline, a canyon or a driving seat.
