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

    The official site currently lists the park as closed after Season 7, with Season 8 expected in October 2026. Verify the operating calendar before relying on any future-date listing.

  • Exit planning

    Standard admission is for a single entry; re-entry is not available on the same ticket after leaving.

  • Food and bags

    Outside food and beverages are not permitted except baby food and water. Bag checks apply, large luggage is prohibited, and lockers are available at the main entrance.

  • Optional transport and experiences

    Internal transport, mobility rentals, feeding encounters, and other upgrades may depend on the ticket and can involve additional charges; check the selected inclusions at checkout.

Insider tips

Good to know before your visit

  • Entrance

    Dubai Safari Park is currently closed for the season and the official site says Season 8 is expected in October 2026. When open, the park is in Al Warqa 5; public transport guidance is Dubai Metro to Centerpoint Station followed by RTA bus F10, while taxis can drop guests at the entrance. Standard admission is single-entry, so confirm your route and plans before exiting.

  • 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

    Children under 3 and People of Determination with one companion receive free entry according to the park’s published rules; valid identification may be requested. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. Do not assume senior-citizen or other resident exemptions unless the applicable official offer and proof requirements are confirmed for the new season.

  • 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.
