Overview

Sharjah is the cultural capital of the UAE, and this private tour shows why. Visit the elegant Al Noor Mosque on Khalid Lagoon, then step back in time in the Sharjah Heritage Area with its restored coral-stone houses and Souq Al Arsah, one of the oldest markets in the country.

Shop for carpets, gold and souvenirs at the striking Central “Blue” Souk, stroll the canal at Al Qasba and the fountains of Al Majaz Waterfront, and stop for photos at the King Faisal Mosque and the Sharjah Corniche. It is a relaxed half day that pairs perfectly with a desert safari in the afternoon.
