Things which are not included in the package.
Jebel Jais, standing tall at 1,934 meters, is the highest peak in the UAE. The mountain offers breathtaking views and is home to the world’s longest zipline. If you’re an adventure lover, soaring over the rugged landscape on the zipline is a must-try experience. The winding roads leading to the top also make for a thrilling drive, offering panoramic views of the Hajar Mountains.
Al Hamra Village is a beautiful coastal community that blends modernity with tradition. The village features stunning architecture, including traditional Arabian houses, mosques, and forts. It’s a great place to explore on foot, taking in the serene atmosphere and picturesque surroundings. Don’t miss the Al Hamra Marina, where you can relax by the water and watch the boats go by.
Dhayah Fort is a historic fortification that dates back to the 16th century. Perched on a hilltop, it offers stunning views of the surrounding area. The fort played a significant role in the region’s history, serving as a defensive structure against invaders. A visit to Dhayah Fort is like stepping back in time, providing insight into the rich heritage of Ras Al Khaimah.

Jazirat Al Hamra is an abandoned village that offers a unique glimpse into the past. The village, which was once a thriving pearl fishing community, now stands as a ghost town. The well-preserved buildings and structures provide a fascinating look at traditional Arabian life. It’s a great spot for photography and exploration.
