Spend the afternoon exploring canyons and deciphering ancient petroglyphs as you learn about local folklore from your dedicated Conservation Guide. Unique photo opportunities can be found at unique rock formations forming human-like shapes. Feel in awe as you get up close to canyons etched with inscriptions serving as a time capsule for all the civilizations that called AlUla home in the past. Marvel at the wonder of hexagonal shapes forming an extraordinary landscape.
As the sun shares its last rays with Sharaan, sit atop one of the canyons and overlook a vast valley while sipping on a refreshing drink and enjoying delicious canapes. On a nocturnal eco walk, try and look for local wildlife and creatures using UV lights under the guidance of your expertly trained Conservation Guide.
Dinner is a traditional South African “braai” set in a magically-lit canyon. Embrace a cooking style similar to an Arabic grill but with more hearty dishes infused with exquisite aromas and flavours. As darkness has completely settled and the sky lights up with stars, sit back and be immersed in a stargazing session, complete with a telescope and an astronomy talk.
