Buying guide

Not sure which ticket to choose?

For the complete experience, prioritize tickets that include the 'Explorer Safari Tour' (the drive-through bus) and the internal shuttle train. In the extreme June heat, walking between the far-flung villages is physically demanding, making transport-inclusive bundles the most practical choice for families and first-time visitors.

Quick picks

Choose by your situation

Before checkout

What is often not included

  • Seasonal Closure Risk: Dubai Safari Park officially closes for the summer season starting June 1, 2026, due to extreme heat. Be wary of resellers offering 'available' dates in June; the park typically does not reopen until October 2026.
  • Safari Journey Exclusion: The basic 'Safari Park Pass' (approx. 50 AED) excludes the 35-minute Explorer Safari bus tour. Upgrading to this experience on-site costs roughly 50 AED extra per adult, making the 'Safari Bundle' a cheaper pre-purchase option.
  • Commute Expenses: There is no direct Metro link to the park. A taxi or ride-share from Downtown Dubai or Dubai Marina costs between 60–90 AED each way, which can significantly exceed the price of the entry ticket itself.
  • Strict Food & Beverage Ban: Security performs bag checks at the entrance and strictly prohibits outside food and snacks. Only water and baby food are permitted; expect to pay premium prices at internal kiosks and restaurants.
  • Dress Code Compliance: The park enforces a conservative dress code (shoulders and knees must be covered). Visitors wearing shorts or sleeveless tops may be denied entry or required to purchase covering shawls at the gift shop.
  • Internal Transport Upgrades: While the Safari Park Pass now includes unlimited train rides, the private 'Eco-Taxi' or 'Super Taxi' service for faster transit between villages requires an additional on-site fee per trip.

Insider tips

Good to know before your visit

  • Entrance: Note that Dubai Safari Park is closed for the summer season as of June 2026, with reopening expected in October; always verify the seasonal calendar before traveling. When the park is operational, enter via the main Al Warqa 5 gate and utilize the free shuttle from the parking lot to the ticketing plaza. To avoid the park's primary bottleneck, head directly to the Explorer Village for the Safari Journey bus tour immediately upon opening at 9:00 AM, as wait times for the shared safari vehicles often exceed 60 minutes by midday.
  • Price: Official adult tickets start at approximately 50 AED for a basic Day Pass and 90 AED for the Safari Journey (including the drive-through bus tour), while children aged 3–12 pay reduced rates of 20–35 AED. Partner prices often appear higher because they bundle the Explorer Safari, internal train transport, or skip-the-line perks that are sold as separate add-ons at the gate; always verify if your ticket includes the 'Safari Journey' bus, as a basic entry pass alone does not grant access to the main drive-through animal exhibits.
  • Discounts: Entry is free for children under age 3, People of Determination (PoD) plus one companion, and UAE Resident Senior Citizens (60+); PoD and senior visitors must present a valid Sanad Card, Emirates ID, or equivalent official ID at the dedicated park counter to receive their tickets. Reduced-price tickets are available for children aged 3 to 12. Note that Dubai Safari Park typically closes for the summer season starting in June due to extreme temperatures; verify the park's 2026 seasonal opening status before purchasing.
  • Timing: Arrive early enough for security checks, ticket scanning and wayfinding.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is Dubai Safari Park open in June 2026?

No. Dubai Safari Park typically closes for the summer season (June to September) to protect animal welfare during the extreme heat. Season 7 officially ended on May 31, 2026, and the park is scheduled to remain closed until Season 8 begins in October 2026.

What is the difference between the Safari Park Pass and the Safari Bundle?

The Safari Park Pass (approx. 50 AED) includes walking access to all villages and the 15-minute Arabian Desert Safari. The Safari Bundle (approx. 117 AED) is highly recommended as it adds the 35-minute Explorer Safari bus tour, which is the only way to see large predators like lions, tigers, and cheetahs in their open habitats.

Can I get a refund or change my visit date?

Official tickets are strictly non-refundable. While the official site may allow rescheduling up to 24 hours in advance subject to availability, partner tickets from sellers like GetYourGuide or Tiqets often provide more flexible 24-hour cancellation windows; always verify the specific refund policy on the checkout page before paying.

Who is eligible for free entry and how do they book?

Children under 3 years old and People of Determination (POD) receive free admission. POD visitors also receive free entry for one companion. While these visitors do not typically need to book online, they must present valid proof of age or a Sanad/disability ID card at the ticket office to collect their entry permits.

How do I get to the park using public transport?

There is no direct Metro station at the park. You must take the Red Line to Centerpoint Station (formerly Rashidiya) and then transfer to the RTA Bus F10, which stops at the park entrance. Due to the park's remote location in Al Warqa 5, a taxi or ride-share is often the most practical option.

Can I bring my own food and drinks into the park?

No outside food or beverages are permitted inside the park. Security checks bags at the entrance, and any food items may be confiscated. There are multiple dining zones, including Al Wadi and the various villages, offering a range of international fast food and sit-down options.

Does a 'skip-the-line' ticket bypass the Safari Journey bus queue?

No. A 'skip-the-line' or 'priority' ticket only bypasses the main entrance ticket windows. It does not grant priority access to the internal Explorer Safari bus tour, which is the park's primary bottleneck and can have wait times exceeding 60 minutes during peak periods.
