Not that attractive

Very little to see, places are not that attractive and much overrated. 5 minutes spent in the oasis, with nothing to do. The fort is closed to visitors. The "hot spring" is a fountain with water coming out of a plastic pipe. The "one of the most scenic mountain routes" is depressing, poor view from the top, nothing to do, all fenced, can't walk anywhere, can't touch anything. Restaurants are closed during the day, so can't even sit and have a coffee at the top of the mountain. All is pretty miserable.

Marvellous experience

We booked the trip via Viator and were very lucky to have ABC tours for our trip to Al Ain We had a Private tour with guide We had a confortable 4x4 It was quite a long drive but our guide explains very well as well as the history as the actual facts We stopped at different places of interest including the warm water springs and the Jaleed mountain where we drive to the top We also visit an old fort and the surrounding dadle plantation Then visiting the Al Ain Palace Museum It was a marvellous day and we thank our guide
