I join vi4ka_1984 (except for ticks, I was lucky - there were none). Everything was so.
I can add the following:
To drive around Sharjah and Dubai, we used a magazine with a map that was given from Royal Prak, it helped a lot, because. never taught English. As a result, I showed a photo in this magazine or a place on the map, which made life much easier. Three times we went to the "engine" market in Sharjah, however, no one knows that it is a "engine" there in the course))). You can’t really buy clothes, because. prices are the same as in Kyiv and more expensive, but souvenirs can be bought very well, in some shops they knocked down the price twice.
The grocery market is located a maximum of 200 meters from the "trains" through the road junction (we found out from the guide, because it is not on the map). Products were bought cheaper every time, they like to breed in prices, in the end, mango cost ~ 15 UAH / kg for ours (the first time it was twice as expensive, so find out all the prices, don’t take it from the first one).
Walking around any of the cities is very difficult, even a little annoying, because. There are almost no pedestrian crossings, and if there are, then with a traffic light that works when it wants to. Crossing roads is even more difficult, because. They have a lot of traffic even at night. Their footpaths are not particularly developed, they had to walk either on lawns or on sands, in general, the UAE is opposed to hiking.
From the hotel only positive memories.
The room is clean.
Cleaning - excellent, left a tip, so they licked everything, including the ceiling)
Food - deserves special attention. I would say 5+++. Everything is perfectly clean, sterile, and most importantly delicious, especially fish) For 10 bucks per person, you can always buy dinner or lunch.
The pool was with a temperature of about 37 degrees, so there was no desire to swim in it.
The beach is distant, about which everyone writes, there is a double impression here:
+ large, white sand, clean water
- local "chocks" (I can’t name it otherwise, you’ll understand why later) constantly polluted the beach to such an extent that even Crimea nervously smokes on the sidelines. I especially saw the light when the storm passed and to the garbage that was added from the sea....not to exaggerate - there was ALMOST nowhere to lie down, local services began to clean it up after a couple of days, they were not in any hurry. Moreover, frightened tourists are afraid to litter, and locals are not in the least. Moreover, garbage does not mean cigarette butts and other trifles, but bottles of all kinds, broken chairs, rags, etc. dirt. I got the impression that these were all visiting Pakistanis and others, after which I noticed this in the local Arabs as well. In general, I advise you to go deeper to the middle of the beach, so that the locals do not spoil your vacation.
Regarding the supermarket, which from the exit on the left around the corner is a complete scam, they don’t write prices, but call them in 2-fold size. We found across the street from him, go to the left of 100-200 meters. It came out twice cheaper and more pleasant.
We also went to the Ferris wheel in Sharjah, it was cool, 6 laps under the air conditioners, equivalent to paradise))) after walking to it.
If anyone needs, I can draw everything on the map.
I'll post pics later, etc.
I definitely enjoyed my vacation!
