For those wanting a bit of history & deeper look into the UAE! - Absolutely worth doing if you've got a little more time in Dubai (UAE). An escape from the city & how it came to be!
If you love history & want to experience the historical side of the UAE & what life was like pre oil, then this is a must do! You get to see & experience the old fort & royal palace + enjoy a great all you can eat buffet. There's also the mountain range at the end with a spectacular view. The camel site is not for the faint hearted though... It's a great cultural experience, but also a sad one (even as a meat eater).
Our tour guide was Rilwan Mohama'd. He was very kind & informative. He told us lots about each site we visited. He also did a pit stop on the drive back to Dubai for a quick drink & loo break.
My only slight niggle, is the lunch is a bit later in the tour, so definitely bring a water bottle & little snack (crisps or something to nibble in the car). We left our bags in the car at each side we visited.

Very interesting tour - We have chosen Full Day Al Ain Tour with lunch to discover the UNESCO oasis. Our tour guide Razwan was very kind. We visited AL Jahili Fort, Al Ain Palace Museum, Al Ain Oasis, Camel Market, Jabal Hafeet panoramic viewpoint (unfortunately during the tour you don’t visit the summit) and Mubazarah Hot Springs. Some stops could be longer but overall I recommend the tour. Futhermore, the very delicious lunch was included.

Tour with guide Kumar - Our guide Kumar made this day to a very special day. He showed us al Ain with its all beautiful small secrets. Beside the hidden gems which we were able to see, Kumar told us a lot interesting information about the history, culture and landscape. Also the lunch in the hotel is fully recommendable.
I want to give a huge thanks to the team and a special thanks to Kumar. The trip is absolutely recommendable!
Cheers

Fantastic day out! - The tour operator Grayline was organised and efficient. The buses were clean and comfortable. Loved thr fsct that we had headsets for commentary and info all the way there and all around. It was informative and interesting.
The fort was good, particularly the photo exhibition. 30 mins was long enough though.
The palace museum was lovely too. We could have spent a little longer here but I can imagine in really hot weather that 30 mins would have been enough.
The Oasis was great to see. We paid 20dirhams each extra for the buggy ride around (which took 30 mins). This was worth it to see everything. They did photo stops so you didn't miss out.
Lunch was good, with a wide choice and soft drinks included.
The camel market was an experience! Not too smelly but opened your airways!!!
Loved the ride up to the viewing point on the mountain, fabulous for photos. We then went to the hot springs. Sadly, we couldn't bathe as no water (issues due to heavy rainfall). Our guide knew where to go though to bathe our feet in the hot spring water - lovely experience.
Our guide was helpful all day and kept us all safe.
I would do this trip again and highly recommend it if you want to see the beauty of the UAE away from the glitz and glamour of Dubai.

Very informative if you are... - <p>Very informative if you are interested in UAE history and traditions. Guide Naser was very good and very nice person.<br/>
Unfortunately tour is not promoted so only 4 people participate.<br/>
I would include few more attractions in the tour like camel market, souk, zoo, etc.</p>

Nothing spectacular about Al Ain - You can visit Al Ain only if you have plenty of time. But I would still spend more time in Dubai. The fort and Museum was OK. The tour guide was not helpful and was rushing at every stop. We went to see camles and mountain. Nothing interesting. The trip is not worth the money.
