This was a very good tour. Our guide, Sonia and our driver, Yasser, were both very professional yet friendly. Sonia was well informed and gave very good presentations about the background and history of the places we visited.
The high light was the camel market which was unique and very authentic.
I would recommend this trip to anyone who wants to see more of the history of UAE.

Al Ain is a quiet, charming and beautiful town near the border to Oman. It is nicknamed The Garden City due to vast amounts of flowers, bushes, trees ... The town houses the largest oasis in the UAE, several historic forts and thousands of date palm trees. The water irrigation system of the oasis is an UNESCO world heritage site. I strongly recommend this trip if you need a break from the artificial atmosphere, the high risers and the traffic jams of Dubai.

Great day trip to Al Ain the oasis inland city with old castles and museum as well as a palm grove. Very different and well worth the day trip. I ended up being the only one on this trip but would recommend this as part of any itinerary in the UAE whether Dubai or Abu Dhabi

I had an excellent day out visiting the city of Al Ain and the mountain of Jabal Hafeet. This tour was a great way to get beyond the bubble of Dubai and explore more of the UAE countryside. Al Ain was a very interesting city. I enjoyed the Fort, Palace Museum. The Oasis complex is huge and well worth wandering around. My highlight was the drive up Jabal Hafeet and the views from the top. Spectacular landscape and journey.

The whole experience of seeing the camel market, going to the top of the mountain, seeing the fort, the dates farm and much more my husband and I didn’t expect to see all that it was all very beautiful an experience we will never forget and most of all learn about the culture of the country.

I learned the history of Dubai and a very interesting. Dubai city has tall buildings just like New York. But there are not many people walking but they ride a cars to the work. I went to the markets I saw only men. It is a very interesting Dubai’s populations Indians and Pakistanis make up 70%, only 10% are local Dubai’s people the rest are Iranians.

A great day in Al Ain with Bilal, who shared a lot of information and showed me around the city very nicely. I also had the time I wanted at every stop and was not rushed at any time. Al Ain is very peaceful and serene, and it is a very pleasant halt away from Dubai and Abu Dhabi. I highly recommend it!

Bilal was my guide for this tour. He´s very knowledgeable and very time-efficient with great driving skills! He took me to places that were not crowded and was also very kind to take these photographs shared in the review. Highly recommended!!! The best guide I had in the UAE.
