History Behind Dubai Safari Park

Dubai Safari Park began construction in 2012 and opened its doors to the public in late 2017 due to construction delays caused by the extreme heat and challenges involved in importing rare animals. Originally set to open in 2016, the project had to be pushed back to ensure that it was completed to the highest standards. The development of Dubai Safari Park underwent extensive scrutiny and revision to create a viable plan that allowed for the relocation of up to 1000 animals to the new park. Additionally, the construction of Dubai Safari Park was carried out in 12 distinct phases. The park itself is divided into four separate sections: Africa, Asia, Arabia and an open safari, each providing visitors with a unique experience.
