About this experience
The UAE is not only about the hot desert and skyscrapers. In a comfortable car, we will head to the Hajar Mountains, Hatta Valley, and date palm groves. Explore the places where the ancestors of Dubai's current rulers, the Al Maktoum dynasty, lived for centuries. You will breathe fresh air, see a lake of enchanting beauty, visit an ethnographic village, and taste the local honey.
