Al Marmoom Bedouin Experience is a new project by Platinum heritage that is supported by Dubai’s Department of Tourism & Commerce Marketing (Dubai Tourism).
The new project gives tourists a glimpse into the lives of Emirati bedouins and also spend a day out in the desert. Guests can visit “to watch the sunrise or to enjoy the desert sunset”.

According to the company, “Guests will learn to saddle, ride and look after their own camel as they join a Bedouin caravan, travelling through the desert before they arrive at the camp. In addition to enjoying the traditional food and live cooking, local tour guides, who have graduated from the Dubai College of Tourism’s Emirati Tour Guide programme, will greet guests on arrival, before commencing on a tour of the camp, sharing tales along the way on how the Bedouin communities lived in days gone by. ”
The camp is built around an oasis with the Bedouin village reflecting days of the past where Bedouins would go in search of sources.
Talking about this, His Excellency Abdullah Hamdan Bin Dalmook, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Hamdan Bin Mohammed Heritage Center (HHC) said, “The camp offers guests the opportunity to enjoy this experience amongst key elements, including natural surroundings, tents, and camel rides, providing a true representation of the eco-system of the desert-dwellers. We are delighted to be part of this project, which is the first of its kind in the region to offer such authentic information, showcasing elements of the UAE’s cultural heritage.”
