After breakfast, a scenic drive takes you to Al Ain, the Garden City of the UAE, famous for its greenery, date palms, and cultural sites. Explore the old town, where traditional architecture and heritage sites offer a glimpse into the region's rich history. The visit to the camel market will give you a glimpse into traditional Arabian commerce and lifestyle, a lively scene of negotiation and camaraderie.
