This adventure showcases the stunning natural beauty and fascinating history of Fujairah-the only Emirate on UAE's scenic east coast. Start your journey with a drive along the scenic coastline passing Fujairah City to reach Kalba, an enclave belonging to Sharjah. Here you will visit the Kalba Bird of Prey Centre, the first of its kind in the UAE and the Middle East, and consider as a dynamic and engaging facility in which visitors can see and experience the power of birds of prey in the Arabian Peninsula. Returning to Fujairah city, step inside the Fujairah Museum to see its collection of old weapons, traditional costumes and artifacts excavated from nearby. Next, take photos of the adjacent, renovated Old Fort of Fujairah, built on a hill overlooking an old village and date palm plantations. Before returning to the pier you will visit the small, but well maintained, Fujairah Heritage Village -- a careful recreation of 16th-century Arabian village life.
Please note: Wear modest clothing—comfortable; not tight; with shoulders and knees covered. Bring sunscreen and a hat. Tour does not operate on Fridays.
