Jebel Jais World's Longest Zipline — Guided Trip From Dubai
Fly the world’s longest zipline on Jebel Jais—175 km from Dubai—to feel speeds near 150 km/h from a 1,680 m platform. This guided trip pairs certified gear and a full transfer service for a high-altitude, one-of-a-kind ride.
The Experience
Before You Go
Arrive hydrated and fueled
Drive time and heat make hydration essential—drink water before pickup and bring a small bottle for after the ride.
Wear secure shoes and snug clothing
Closed-toe athletic shoes and fitted activewear prevent interference with harnesses and make transitions faster.
Protect skin and eyes
Peak sun and reflective platforms make sunscreen and sunglasses important even in mild weather.
Listen to guides and practice body position
Follow braking and posture instructions during a short on-platform briefing to ensure a safe, smoother ride.
