Discover Nature, History, and Heritage in the Garden City of the UAE
Escape the city and immerse yourself in the natural beauty and cultural richness of Al Ain, the UAE’s historic “Garden City.” This guided tour highlights two of Al Ain’s most iconic attractions: the tranquil Al Ain Oasis, a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the majestic Jebel Hafeet, the UAE’s second-highest mountain. A perfect blend of history, nature, and scenic landscapes.
🌴 Al Ain Oasis – A Living Heritage
Step into a peaceful, shaded sanctuary of over 147,000 date palms. Walk along the winding paths and discover the ancient falaj irrigation system, which has sustained agriculture here for centuries. Learn how this green heart of the desert supported generations of Emiratis long before the rise of modern cities.
🏔️ Jebel Hafeet – Panoramic Mountain Views
Drive up the winding mountain road to the summit of Jebel Hafeet, which rises over 1,200 meters above sea level. Enjoy breathtaking views of Al Ain, the surrounding desert, and the border with Oman. The mountain is also an archaeological treasure, home to ancient tombs dating back over 5,000 years.
💦 Green Mubazzarah – Hot Springs and Picnic Park
At the base of Jebel Hafeet lies Green Mubazzarah, a lush park fed by natural hot springs. Relax near warm water streams, take scenic photos, or unwind in the beautiful gardens that make this spot a favorite for locals and tourists alike.
