Description
Begin your tour with a convenient pickup from your hotel in Abu Dhabi. Head to the Abu Dhabi Falcon Hospital, the world’s first and largest hospital dedicated to the UAE’s national bird.
Since opening its doors in 1999, the hospital has treated about 6,000 birds each year, occupying the 200 air-conditioned treatment rooms. The sport of falconry has deep roots in the nation’s culture, and the valuable birds are issued passports to get access to high-quality check-ups, treatments, and feather substitutions.
Explore the facility on a guided tour and gain a unique insight into the history of the sport and the physiology of this significant bird. See the birds swoop through a free-flight aviary, witness a falcon pedicure, and even make friends with the birds as one perches on your arm.
