The itinerary

Day 01

A professional guide escorts the exclusive Al Ain City Tour from Abu Dhabi.

Meet your professional guide at the hotel in Abu Dhabi at 08.30 am to begin your Al Ain day tour.
Our first stop will be Qasar Al Ain, a Bedouin-style building built in 1937 that served as Sheikh Zayed's residence and is now a museum chronicling his daily life.
Next on this tour is the Jahili Fort, built to save the local palm trees. As of 2008, it has been one of the main attractions in Al Ain and one of the largest forts in the UAE. The displays are the rare photographs taken by British adventurer, desert explorer, and writer Wilfred Thesiger during his 1940s journey into the Empty Quarter.
Next, visit the UNESCO World Heritage Site Al Ain Oasis, a 3000-acre oasis that gives you a glimpse into the people who have tamed the desert there since 4000 BC.
The Al Ain city tour concludes with a lunch stop at Jebel Hafeet Mountain, the second-highest mountain in the UAE. The drive to the hill is more impressive than the destination, and this road is one of the most incredible in the world.
Our city tour of Al Ain will end at around 5:00 pm, and we'll return to the hotel in Abu Dhabi.
