Once again another journey well... - <p>Once again another journey well worth it. When you are in Dubai all you get is shopping centres and skyscrapers. On this trip you get to see a bit of the desert, the Hatta mountain range and various old buildings. This is how life was before oil was discovered. The guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. Answered all questions quickly and clearly. Only downside was we visited an antiques shop, this could have been any shop in Dubai selling the same stuff, did not see the reason for the visit. :</p>

Its a lot more relaxed than some other tours and the guide is quite funny. We visited the Friday Market on a Tuesday, went to a fish market, visited a craft shop, the mosque and fortress as described and saw some of the other side of emirate life. The hotel lunch was not cheap but was a buffet and very tasty and Sandy Beaches is gorgeous to see. Enjoyed it and would recommend it, its a bit rough round the edges but worth a try.</p>

An outing to the beach. - It was interesting to get away from the city of Dubai and get a look at the hinterland, and Gulf of Oman coast. Nothing too remarkable except for the developments around the oil export terminal. The highlight of the tour was a 2.5 hour stop at a beach resort with buffet lunch. A bonus for those from cooler climates or from beach deprived areas. Pretty ordinary if have beaches within ordinary access. Footwear is required on the beach because of sharp rocks and embedded shells - we saw two patrons being bandaged up by attentive resort staff. I don't recall visiting Hatta despite the prominent mention in the tour description. An OK day - but nothing extraordinary.
