Fujairah Private Day Trip From Dubai With Lunch

Fujairah is one of a great place to visit .Our tour guide Chamil is very knowledgeable about the history and culture of the place . Our group enjoyed the Sandy beach resort, it’s so clean and no crowds at all! Really quite an experience!

It was interesting to get away from the city of Dubai and get a look at the hinterland, and Gulf of Oman coast. Nothing too remarkable except for the developments around the oil export terminal. The highlight of the tour was a 2.5 hour stop at a beach resort with buffet lunch. A bonus for those from cooler climates or from beach deprived areas. Pretty ordinary if have beaches within ordinary access. Footwear is required on the beach because of sharp rocks and embedded shells - we saw two patrons being bandaged up by attentive resort staff. I don't recall visiting Hatta despite the prominent mention in the tour description. An OK day - but nothing extraordinary.

<p>Very nice excursion. I enjoyed myself and saw quite a bit. Good value. Definitely recommend. A little more time at the sites would be beneficial</p>

<p>Once again another journey well worth it. When you are in Dubai all you get is shopping centres and skyscrapers. On this trip you get to see a bit of the desert, the Hatta mountain range and various old buildings. This is how life was before oil was discovered. The guide was amazing and very knowledgeable. Answered all questions quickly and clearly. Only downside was we visited an antiques shop, this could have been any shop in Dubai selling the same stuff, did not see the reason for the visit. :</p>

<p>Tour in both English and German. It could get a bit confusing sometimes due to the constant language change other than that a great way to see other emirates!</p>

<p>Pick up on time from Dubai to Sharjah where tour commenced, about 30 min. Trip big day but worth doing. Saw enough to give idea of the country. Guide professional and informative. Day bigger than usual due to bad weather, rainstorm alternating sandstorm on way back. Driver competent and felt safe.</p>

<p>Really good day out and worth it if you are in the UAE and want to see more than just Abu Dhabi or Dubai.</p>

<p>I enjoyed seeing the different emirates and specially being able to get in the water during our lunch break.</p>

<p>The tour was excellent and the guide very professional and knowledgeable! It was a real pleasure discovering another aspect of the UAE, and everything was well organized.</p>

<p>If you want to see a bit of the other emirates other than Dubai and Abu Dhabi I would suggest taking this tour. Its a lot more relaxed than some other tours and the guide is quite funny. We visited the Friday Market on a Tuesday, went to a fish market, visited a craft shop, the mosque and fortress as described and saw some of the other side of emirate life. The hotel lunch was not cheap but was a buffet and very tasty and Sandy Beaches is gorgeous to see. Enjoyed it and would recommend it, its a bit rough round the edges but worth a try.</p>

<p>the tour was ok, but the coach was too cramped. I sat at the most rear of the coach and was hardly able to move. the overall experience was great, we were able to visit several historical places and the sandy beach resort. I would suggest the company to change their vehicle according to the number of the guests to ensure that every one of us could have a memorable trip.</p>

<p>Good busdriver and very knowledgeable tourguide from Jemen who spoke English and German. Liked visit to the old Mosque and Portuguese fort most. Would have liked more toilet opportunities, especially in the morning driving from Dubai to Sharjah first and then start the tour right away. By the time we had our first stop at the fruit market I was hurting to go to the toilet!</p>

<p>This was a wonderful trip out if you are staying in Dubai and want to see some great parts of the country this is the tour to take. The guide was wonderful and took care of every thing and went over everything ... this is a must if you are coming to Dubai.</p>

<p>I highly recommend this tour for people who want to see not only skycrappers in Dubai, but also an another side of UAE: an Indian Ocean, Hajar Mountains, oases and forts. Trip offers many diffrent landscapes worth to see</p>

<p>I am satisfied with this tour. only one disappointment: the coach was small and cramped</p>

<p>a lot of stops are little more than a photo opp. Great to get out of Dubai for another aspect of the AEU. Lunch stop at the beach was the best bit - safe quiet private beach at a resort with towels available to borrow. Just over an hour there so if you love the beach don't waste time ordering lunch at the café - goo food but slow - take your own snacks or buy fruit along the way and just go straight to the beach. Friday markets everyday tho! very disappointing. It is really just a strip of carpet sellers and fruit sellers and we had twenty minutes to wander from one end to the other. The mosque/fort/mountains were all great</p>

<p>Very interesting to see outside Dubai - the desert, mountains, and other towns. Lunch at a great resort, though I wish I'd known we could swim and there were towels to borrow. Our guide was very informative and considerate, and spoke excellent English and German. The coach was comfortable and air conditioned. We stopped frequently and were able to buy fruit at the morning market. It's advisable to take snacks and water as it's a long day. Very glad to be told pick-up time the night before by text.</p>

<p>There wasn't enough time to order lunch and go in the water when we got to the East Coast. That was a big disappointment. There was too much shopping time, that cut our time by the water short. Also, we didn't know that we would be driving to Sharja before we met up with the rest of the tour, so it was confusing to be driving along in the small vehicle. Otherwise, the trip was good.</p>

<p>I can't understand how this company consistently fails to run tours to time. We had cut a tour short and taken a cab the day before due to late collection late start and late running. Today we had a evening appointment so called their offices to check finish time and were told we would be back at our hotel for 5pm. A late pickup and another late coach but still guide said we would be back at 4:30 and to hotel for 5. The tour could and should be a good one but it was clearly running late getting to the lunch stop nearly a hour after we were told and reaching the fish market just after it had closed. The afternoon was spoilt by the lateness. There was a lot of traffic on the return but normal for Dubai peak time. We finally got back to our hotel at 7:25 nearly two and a half hours late and no time to change for evening or eat. There had been no unforeseen problems. Just bad organization.</p>

<p>Well organised tour, our guide was very knowledgable and it was good to get out of the city and see other areas.</p>

<p>Good commentary and helpful guide. Especially liked the dip in the Indian Ocean.</p>

<p>This was a very pleasant day trip, a good way to spend a day away from Dubai and see another part of the Emirates. The places visited were very interesting and the balance of time spent at the various stops was just right. Transport was comfortable and the guide informative and helpful.</p>

<p>This was wonderful, got a better picture and understanding of UAE not just Dubai</p>

<p>Thought you should have had given us longer to look around the fort - we were told we only had 5 minutes!<br/> Also, other tours we have been on supplied free bottles of water. <br/> Otherwise, prompt and efficient.</p>

<p>The tour was ok. All the tour guide did was sit in the front row of the bus, look away from us and talk into the microphone. He didn't engage with any of us on the bus or interact with any of us. Also, the restaurant took for ever to bring our food and we only got 15 minutes at the beach.</p>

<p>This was a great tour away, from the city which was also great value. Lots of different things to see ranging from the desert, the mountains and the sea. For those not keen to swim in the sea the pool was great. Driver and guide were excellent.</p>

<p>The company was very professional and we were picked up on time in our hotel lobby. Our guide was friendly. The tour was incredibly long and boring. There was too much driving and the stops were very short 10-15 minutes each. This made for a long day of riding in a bus. We stopped at the Friday Market. We walked from one end to the other, but we're not given any time to look around. There was a nice photo stop at the mountains. We went to a hotel resort for lunch. Lunch was ok, but it did not leave any time for swimming. It is too bad because it was a beautiful beach. Our last stop was a fort. It was interesting but by this time I was too hot and too bored to care.<br/> It is a 9 hour tour. It would have been nice if they provided water.</p>

<p>Instructor was good, explained a lot of interesting things and worth visiting to see how other cities are compared to Abu Dhabi and Dubai.</p>

<p>The ride to the East Coast was quite a smooth one. There were lots of interesting things to see along the way. It would have been excellent if not for the super hot weather on the day we went for the trip. <br/> The group of 10 were split into 2 different coaches on the way back. It was of good intention however the driver was not clearly communicated to the hotel a couple of the guests were staying and the ride took a little bit longer than expected.</p>

<p>It was a fantastic day out. The guide was really brilliant and gave us good information about the area and its people. I would do this again in a heartbeat.</p>

<p>My husband Bill and I did this tour Tuesday 16th June 2015. Our guide, Nimesh was amazing and we learnt so much about life in the various Emirates. If you have a day free in Dubai I would highly recommend this tour. Don't spend all your time shopping this tour will expand your knowledge of this region. We knew there was a lot of development in Abu Dhabi and Dubai but we until we did this tour of the east coast we didn't realise the actual scale of development that is being carried out in other regions too. This tour is also a showcase for seeing some beautiful Islamic architecture in new homes.</p>

<p>I enjoyed the trip very much. The tour company were reliable in the hotel pickup. I found the return journey once we got off the bus into the private car very stressful and tiring at the end of a long day. The trip back to my hotel took 2 and a half hours as there were two other drop offs, one of which was on the Dubai border. Had the return part been as good as the morning pick up to meet the bus it would have been so much better</p>

<p>Excellent trip, good guide and covered all things listed on route which did not apply on some other tours I took. Nice to get a glimpse outside of the city. Good value for money.</p>

<p>Very nice tour, but I think a bottle of water should have been Provided</p>

<p>This tour was amazing for both my husband and myself, we would rate this tour very highly on the tourist agenda. Would love to go on another similar tour if possible the next time we visit Dubai.</p>

<p>So good to see what happens outside Dubai and get an idea of the national character.</p>

<p>If you want to get a more realistic impression of the UAE I would suggest taking this tour, well organized and<br/> Informative.</p>

<p>This was a wonderful day outside the city. Gave you a real insight in the way of life our guide was so informative and looked after us well.</p>

<p>Great trip- Gets you out of the city and lets you see more of the landscape of UAE. Highly Recommend.</p>

<p>Great guide but average trip. Photo stops were short and through the mountains , not really in the right place. Driver was very erratic with constant braking and accelerating which was not pleasant!</p>

<p>Excellent tour with very knowledgeable guide. Good value for money.</p>

<p>Good day out but to tiring . An overnight stop at snoopy island would have been better</p>

<p>Tour starts from Sharjah. It would be more convenient to stay in a hotel in that area</p>

<p>Tour was well organised and the guide very knowledgeable. With only six people in the group we had sufficient time at each stop and opportunities to ask questions. It was a full day tour but covered a lot of territory and history and was good to see some of the countryside outside of the city areas.</p>

<p>It would have been more enjoyable with a better English-speaking tour guide.</p>

<p>A beautiful tour to see that part of Dubai hardly mentioned.</p>

<p>I really enjoyed this tour as we saw parts of UAE that were very different from Dubai. The tour guide was informative and interesting although i would have liked a little more time at the "Friday market". The only complaint was the arrangement for lunch. We were taken to a resort type place which was not within walking distance of anywhere else so basically you had to eat the meal at the resort or go without. The food and drinks were vastly overpriced for what you received. It would be much better to be dropped of in one of the other emirate towns to find your own lunch, or at least be told when you book the tour of the lunch arrangement and the cost so that you can bring your own food with you. This was a total waste of an hour as we were stuck in this place with no possibility of going anywhere else.</p>

<p>i really like that i get to visit this places. the tour guide was also very informative.</p>

<p>Our Tour Guide was very knowledgeable and friendly but spent a large amount of time answering questions from a German couple and then answering them in German, omitting to then give his answer in English. Tour content was very interesing and certainly gave us a glimpse of other parts of the UAE.</p>
