Experience Al Ain

Al Ain, the UAE's oasis city, is a natural wonder of the world, where palm trees outnumber houses and ancient waterways nourish the desert land. The city’s history is a source of pride, so much so that the region is a protected UNESCO World Heritage Site. The landscape is as diverse as its culture, from the busy city streets to the desolate desert dunes. In the city, you’ll come upon ancient forts representing time-honoured traditions with important stories of the nation's origin to tell. 

A visit to Al Ain can be anything from a tranquil escape to an adrenaline-fueled adventure. The lush green oases are a haven for calming walks and natural history lessons. Meanwhile, out in the deserts and mountains, engines roar as they climb the dunes and hearts beat a little faster on hikes up high peaks. Immerse yourself in the vibrant and bustling souks. Watch traditional artisans craft materials into fine souvenirs, breathe in the unforgettable smell of Arabian spices and perfumes and taste delicious Emirati cuisine. 

Relax in Al Ain

Al Ain is a place where time has stood still, preserving perfect natural environments to escape to. Hike up peaceful mountains, study derelict forts and stroll through Al Ain Oasis, the city’s natural jewel. In the oasis, pathways meander through thousands of palms, ancient forts and it's here where you can see the traditional irrigation system in operation. 

Find pleasant hotels and resorts with a laid-back atmosphere or try something different at the foothills of Jebel Hafit and spend a night under the stars in an air-conditioned bubble tent.
