Thank you

Would you recommend the Hop on Hop off buses ? It’s about £120 for a two day pass. I’m trying to decide if it’s worth it or whether we should stick to taxis ?

The Al Maha Desert Resort & Spa... no other place in the world like this.

Agree with 2! Al Qasr not one of my faves though. Beautiful hotel but too quiet for me!

really, its a massive hotel and the club lounge is something else. but then we can not all enjoy the same.
If I had the money it would be the Burj every time. xx

Personally I’d stick to taxis. They are really cheap and I can’t see that you could spend £120 in two days even with loads of journeys

I agree with Colette. We were way out and never managed to spend £60 a day on taxis!
