Fujairah City Tour

Upon arrival of your cruise, our guide will be waiting for you at the port, identified with the Shore2Shore sign.

Enjoy the spectacular views offered by the pristine beaches and rugged mountains of the east coast of Fujairah and Khor Fakkan, on the shores of the Gulf of Oman.

The first stop on our tour itinerary will be the Fujairah Museum and its fascinating collection of local archaeological objects, including exhibits of coins used in Fujairah before the formation of the UAE in 1971. We will stop to take photos at the Fujairah Fort, 300 years old, before visiting the Fujairah Heritage Village.

We will stop at a typical local fish and vegetable market before traveling along the coast to Al Badiya, the oldest mosque in the United Arab Emirates, with two Portuguese watchtowers from 1498 that rise above the mosque and the oasis of the village of Al Badiya. After admiring the exterior of the mosque, we will return to the port of Khor Fakkan.

At the end of the excursion, we will return to the port for the farewell.
