Recensioni Ras al Khaimah

Overall rating 7
Overall Guide : Ras Al Khaimah is a smaller city of the Emirates but has natural beauty. It is a treasure mine for old ruins and look out towers for people who love to explore. There is a road that cuts into and ... Leggi tutto up the mountain in RAK which is a fun way to spend an afternoon but on cooler days. (be sure to pack a lunch) The new corniche is a nice place to spend with family by the water. Many hotels and plenty of beaches but the beaches are not kept up after tourists. There are 3 malls now so pretty good for shopping though most of the locals still shop in the old souk.
