Overview
It’s time to look beyond Dubai and explore the historic and beautiful emirate of Sharjah. Located less than a 30-minute drive from Dubai, the third largest emirate is guaranteed to steal your heart with its unique charms and hidden gems.
Start your morning with a scenic drive from your hotel to Sharjah, accompanied by fun facts and fascinating stories told by your knowledgeable tour guide. Once you’ve reached your destination, enjoy the enticing aromas at Souq Al Jubail, a two-storey market spanning nearly 99 500 square meters. You’ll find everything from fresh fruits and vegetables to high-quality meats at this gourmet paradise.
Continue your journey to take a photo with the incredible Pearl Monument before posing in front of the grandiose King Faisal Mosque. Then it’s time to learn more about Islamic Civilization by paying a visit to the Sharjah Museum of Islamic Civilization. You’ll be able to explore over 5,000 artefacts from the Islamic world and get a better insight into to culture and traditions of Islam.
Take a little break and sip some tea at Jenan – one of the most beloved tea houses in Sharjah. You will even get a clay pot to remember your experience by.
Another market adventure awaits at Souk Al Arsah, deemed as the oldest market place in the UAE. The historic venue was once the meeting place for Bedouins and their camels. As you’ll probably need some refuelling by then, enjoy a lunch break at the beautiful Chedi Al Bait hotel, before feeling truly refreshed at the extraordinary Rain Room. Opened in 2018, the Rain Room is a unique modern installation, delivering a truly awe-inspiring experience for visitors.
Before heading back and concluding your adventure, add to your UAE album by taking photos at the awe-inspiring church area and the spectacular Sharjah Mosque.
