Embark on a fascinating private excursion from Dubai to Al Ain, the "Garden City" and a true cultural gem of the UAE, nestled within a stunning oasis at the foot of the Jebel Hafeet mountain. In just over an hour's drive, you’ll arrive in this historic city, rich in tradition and deeply connected to the desert life. The first stop is the Al Jahili Fort, one of the largest forts in the UAE, which dates back to the late 19th century. Here, you’ll learn about the region's history, military heritage, and strategic importance. From there, you’ll visit the Sheikh Zayed Palace Museum, a beautiful site that once served as the residence of the founder of the UAE, Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan. The museum showcases personal artifacts and a glimpse into the life of the late leader, offering a deeper understanding of the UAE’s formation. Afterward, the journey continues to Al Ain Oasis, a UNESCO World Heritage site, where you’ll stroll through palm-lined walkways and discover the ancient falaj irrigation system that has sustained this verdant oasis for centuries. This peaceful and lush environment offers a stark contrast to the surrounding desert landscape, and you’ll have plenty of time to appreciate the tranquility and beauty of the area. For lunch, indulge in authentic Emirati cuisine at Al Bawadi, a local restaurant known for its traditional dishes. After lunch, experience the bustling Camel Market, where you can observe the lively trade of camels, a traditional practice that remains an integral part of life in this desert region. The next stop is Jebel Hafeet, the highest peak in the UAE, offering breathtaking panoramic views of the city and the surrounding desert. A photo stop here will allow you to capture the spectacular views. Finally, you’ll relax at Al Mubazzarah Hot Springs, where you can enjoy the therapeutic properties of the natural hot springs, surrounded by lush greenery and dramatic mountain views. After this memorable day of exploration, your tour concludes with a comfortable drive back to Dubai, where you’ll be dropped off at your hotel or Dubai Mall, taking with you unforgettable memories of Al Ain’s rich cultural heritage and desert beauty.
