England arrived in the Middle East ahead of the World Cup.
The squad left for their training camp in the middle of the day and will stay there for a few days before their first game of the tournament.
Next up for England are games against the United States and Wales.
Harry Kane said that excitement is building.
We are looking forward to being out on the training field.
It's the pinnacle of world football and we're looking forward to testing ourselves on that stage.
England's performance at the World Cup in Russia, where they reached the semi-finals and were beaten by Croatia in extra time, is something they want to improve on.
"We're trying not to think that far ahead but of course that's the goal and what we're aiming to do," Kane said.
We have to prepare for a tough tournament, but we are excited to start.
A crowd of people waved off the squad as they left St George's Park.
The players were presented with their shirt numbers by Prince William the night before they left.
He pointed out that the rest of the country was behind you. Enjoy it, we are all rooting for you.
With the World Cup taking place in the middle of the domestic season, teams don't have a lot of time to prepare for their first game.
It's a bit different with major tournaments because we're used to preparing for games with England in a short period.
The mentality of the squad will adapt to it.
