Al Ain City Tour from Abu Dhabi

Sightseeing  :  United Arab Emirates  :  Abu Dhabi Emirate  :  Abu Dhabi  :  Day Trips

One of the most popular, fun and informative ways to have a Al Ain City Tour is by a guided bus tour. Sit contented in the comfy buses and enjoy the panoramic view of Al Ain City as the guide points out landmarks and shares Al Ain City's history with you.With markets, museums, forts and a famous date-palm oasis, Al Ain is a breath of fresh air after the frantic pace of Dubai and even Abu Dhabi, both about a two hour drive away. On the border with Oman, the birthplace of Sheikh Zayed has greatly benefited from his patronage and passion for greening the desert, even garnering the moniker ‘Garden City’. But the desert is never far away: simply drive the winding road up Jebel Hafeet for sweeping views of the arid splendor that is the Empty Quarter. Al Ain itself is an increasingly dynamic place with a couple of excellent museums, an archaeological park, a superb zoo and a relative abundance of greenery.
