The story
Al Ain is the other side of the UAE from the one most visitors see: an inland city of Abu Dhabi emirate, on the border with Oman, that Abu Dhabi's tourism board calls much quieter and slower than downtown Abu Dhabi. Its name means 'the spring', and Visit Abu Dhabi describes it as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and one of the world's oldest permanently inhabited settlements. The operator sells an eight-hour private tour there from Dubai, in a vehicle for your party alone. The operator does not list the stops, whether a guide travels with you, or any entry tickets, so your captain reads the stop list on the operator's voucher to you before you pay and asks for any change you want.
What there is to see, by Visit Abu Dhabi: Al Ain Oasis, some 1,200 hectares with about 147,000 date palms, crossed by shaded paths and watered by falaj channels that bring water down from the mountains; Al Jahili Fort, built in the 1890s on the orders of Sheikh Zayed bin Khalifa Al Nahyan, Zayed the First, as a home for members of the ruling family; Qasr Al Muwaiji, a fort restored as a museum; the desert park and 5,000-year-old tombs of Jebel Hafit; and Al Ain Zoo. Which of these the operator's tour includes is on the voucher.
What it feels like: after Dubai's glass and traffic, the palm groves are the surprise. You step off a road into the oasis and the temperature drops under the canopy, the light turns green, and the only sound is water moving in a channel at your feet, the same way it has moved for centuries. The whole city moves at a slower pace than Dubai. It is a long day in a car, and it gives a family from Gujarat something Dubai does not: a sense of the country before the towers.
Who this suits: active seniors and the multigenerational group, who get a slower, shaded day at their own pace in a private vehicle; the photography traveller, for the oasis light and the forts; and families on a second or third visit to the UAE who have done the malls and want the older story. It is not for young children who tire in a car, or for anyone who wants rides and shows.
