Your day by day program
You will be welcomed at the airport and transferred to the first hotel in Dubai. Dubai is a city of contrasts, from the ultra modern sky scrapers to the souqs from another time. You will find everything in Dubai, so leave a little space in your luggage for your journey home!
Night in the Arabian Park Hotel 3***.
After breakfast, transfer to the motorcycle hire shop to get you kitted out. We'll then have a nice ride towards the world famous Dubai Palm Island, built entirely in the sea and where many stars have their homes. We will also see 'Atlantis', an impressive aquaparc. Lunch will be taken together. The afternoon will be dedicated to discovering other interesting places; the Jumeirah mosque, hotel Burj Al Arab, the Sheikh's palace, the Dubai creek, the gold and spice souks. The assistance vehicle and guide will accompany the group at all times.
There will then be a short cruise and dinner (cooking provided by a 5 star hotel) on a superb dhow, the traditional sailing vessels used in the Gulf.
Return for another night in your hotel.
After breakfast, we will get on the motorcycles and leave Dubai. Our introduction to the local "countryside"! The objective is to discover the capital of one of the largest Emirates. You will see sumptuous palaces, visit a village which recounts a life from the past with its local traditions, the Abu Dhabi corniche, the date market and the Grand Mosque. Lunch included and taken together. After seeing various sites, we will leave civilisation and ride out into the desert until the oasis of Liwa where you will pass the night in the superb Liwa Abu Dhabi Hotel 3***.
After breakfast, we will retake the road, this time in the direction of Al Ain. The route through the desert is fantastic and the views are excellent. At Al Ain, you can visit the museum, the Buraimi Souq and the important camel market. After an interesting day it's time to relax by the pool back at our Mercure Grand Jebel Hafeet Al Ain Hotel. Dinner included at the hotel or a local restaurant.
Today, we will take the road to the mountains, with fantastic bends and a landscape from another world. After passing the mountains at Jebel Hafeet, we will make our way to the coast, where you will be tantalised by the crystal clear turqoise waters. Visit Fujairah upon arrival before installation in the Miramar Al Aqah Beach Resort next to the sea where you can enjoy both the beach and the swimming pool. Dinner included at the hotel or a local restaurant.
Today we leave for a new Emirate. This time, we stay next to the coast at Ras Al Khaimah and will avoid Oman and soon get inland crossing some moutainous areas. We will head towards a charming hotel next to the sea. Dinner included at the hotel or a local restaurant.
Night in The Cove Rotana Resort.
This day is a little bit special. You have the choice to either rest at the hotel, with all the comfort that provides and perhaps take a little motorbike tour around Ras Al Khaimer, or you can opt for an activity that will delight all water babies. The optional activity is to leave your motorbike at the hotel, and then be taken to the border with Oman. We will obtain a day's tourist visa before spending the day on an Omani dhow. We will sail to the spectacular fjord of Musandam, at the point of the straits of Hormuz. Very often there is an opportunity to see dolphins and turtles during the crossing. Lunch will be served on the dhow, as well as fresh fruits and drinks. You will have the opportunity to snorkel in the attractive waters.
Return to the hotel at the end of the afternoon.
On this day we will cross several Emirates, which will be a chance to see just how unevenly spread the wealth is in the region. The route passes through the desert, various urban areas and along the coast. Several stops in places like in Sharajh where we will visit the local date market, the fish marker, the blue Souk, etc before getting back to Dubai to return your motorbike. Dinner included at the hotel or a local restaurant.
Night at a hotel in Dubai.
You cannot leave the UAE without experiencing the desert in all its glory! After a morning resting or shopping in the labyrinthe of Dubai malls, you will be picked up at your hotel and brought to the desert to try the following activities: ride the dunes in a 4X4, take a ride on a camel, surf the dunes, have yourself painted with henna... This will all be followed by a splendid barbeque and a spectacle of belly dancers. A great way to finish your holiday in the UAE.
Return to the hotel for your last night.
Your holiday ends after breakfast. A transfer will be organised to the airport in time for your flight.
