5.00This private day trip was absolutely outstanding and easily one of the best experiences I had during my stay in UAE. The itinerary was beautifully balanced, taking us from the impressive Khorfakkan Waterfall , through the winding mountain roads and scenic viewpoints of the Hajar Mountains, to fascinating historical sites like Fujairah Fort and the Al Bidya Mosque. One of the highlights was the visit to Wadi Shees and Al Rafisah Dam—peaceful, green, and completely different from the Dubai skyline. The stop in the Madha–Nahwa enclave was also fascinating and added a unique geopolitical twist to the day. The entire trip felt relaxed, well-paced, and thoughtfully planned, allowing enough time to truly enjoy each stop without rushing. It was the perfect escape from the city and showed a side of the UAE that many visitors miss. I highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the UAE. If you’re looking for nature, history, and something truly different—this is an absolute must-do.

5.00A fantastic excursion to the emirates of Fujairah and Sharjah, as well as to the border of Oman, with the friendly driver ZEESHAN. Thanks to the interesting stops, we experienced a day full of diverse impressions, because the country has more to offer than just shopping malls and beaches... After 8 hours, we were back at the hotel. Thank you!

5.00We had an awesome day travelling to fujairah and khorfakkan, the person driving us was also our guide, he knew the place well, showed us all necessary spots, he was very punctual and on time! The overall tour was very well coordinated and the team was proactive in communication. I highly recommend to go through them.

5.00Best day of my trip to UAE, skipping the crowds to see the authentic country on the eastern coast. Entering Oman inside UAE for me was the highlight, I wish I could have spent a little more time there. Driver Saddam was super engaging and we had interesting conversations, he took me to an authentic Pakistani restaurant experience which I particularly enjoyed. All sightseeing spots are almost empty so it is an easy day of tourism for those who are looking for something other than the Dubai tourist traps.
Best day in mountains
