It’s a must-visit destination for anyone looking to experience the magic and beauty of the rainforest without leaving Dubai.
What to Expect
When you step into the Green Planet, you are immediately transported to a different world. The indoor rainforest is built around a massive, life-sustaining tree, with cascading vines, lush greenery, and the sounds of exotic wildlife filling the air. Expect to see a variety of animals including sloths, toucans, and tree frogs as you explore the different levels of the bio-dome. The atmosphere is meticulously controlled to replicate the natural conditions of a rainforest, offering an immersive and educational experience about the world’s tropical ecosystems.
Become a Zookeeper for a Day
One of the most unique experiences offered at the Green Planet is the chance to become a zookeeper for a day. This interactive program allows participants to get up close and personal with the animals, learning how to care for them and understanding their behaviours and needs. You’ll assist in feeding, cleaning, and even training sessions, providing a rare behind-the-scenes look at the daily operations of a rainforest environment. It’s an excellent opportunity for animal lovers and aspiring zoologists to gain hands-on experience and a deeper appreciation for wildlife conservation.
Camping in the Rainforest
If you are staying at one of the hotels in Dubai Palm, the Green Planet offers a pleasant change with camping right in the heart of the rainforest. This overnight adventure includes guided tours, animal encounters, and educational sessions about the ecosystem. You’ll sleep in comfortable tents under the canopy of the bio-dome, surrounded by the sounds of the rainforest. It’s a perfect way to connect with nature, learn about different species, and create lasting memories with family or friends in a truly unique setting.
Exclusive Animal Encounters
The Green Planet also provides exclusive animal encounters for those looking to get even closer to its residents. These encounters allow visitors to interact with some of the more charismatic animals in the bio-dome, such as sloths, sugar gliders, and exotic birds. These sessions are guided by knowledgeable staff who share fascinating facts and insights about the animals, their habitats, and conservation efforts. It’s a fantastic way to engage with wildlife in a controlled and safe environment while supporting educational and conservation initiatives.
