Advantages: Fascinating country Disadvantages: Lack of food variety
.... Breakfast was quickly eaten and then we were ready for our walk through the Nature Reserve. Our guide for the morning, Jahed, was enthusiastic about what lay ahead. The scenery was stunning, but we were less enthusiastic about identifying hyena prints amongst those left by the Nike and Reebok. The walk lasted all of the morning until we reached the campsite where lunch was to be taken.
After lunch we all climbed into a pickup truck to be taken back to our bus for the onward journey to WadiMusa, our overnight resting place. The scenery on the way was desolate and the roads were bumpy, so we were pleased to arrive in the town that was to be our base for exploring Petra.
DAY FIVE
We spent a memorable day exploring the wonders of Petra. The site was huge, something the photos can`t really do justice to. The walk through the Siq...

Advantages: fun, lots to do inside and out, learning activities for kids, get soaked to the bone Disadvantages: none
...The Wild Water Park is a must for anyone that is travelling with children. It is great for big kids (adults also). The park is just 20 minutes in from the city centre, it is 12 acres of rides and attractions. In total there are 23 rides catering for the needs of kids, adults and families. For the guests of the Burj Al Arab and Jumeira Beach hotels there is an access within the hotels giving them the opportunity to enjoy Wild Wadi any time they want.
For the kids there are mini aqua parks which they can have fun in and enjoy without their parents.

Also there are a lot of interactive toys for the kids to play with. There are also rides that the whole family...

Advantages: fun-filled, action-packed, plenty of water Disadvantages: no disadvantage unless you have fear of water
...Located between the two landmark hotels , viz. Jumeira beach hotel and Burj Al-Arab, this water park can be the perfect day out for some family fun. the fun-filled park consists of around 24 rides som of which are indeed adrenaline-pumping. The rides are suitable and very enjoyable for both adults and children. the Arabian style oasis theme of the park make it more enjoyable to be there.
being a water park, it seems they have taken safety of the public to be a big priority as there is no shortage of lifeguards within the park.
the restaurants in the park prove to be somewhat costly though. but on the whole it is a great experience for a fun family day out if you decide to go to Dubai....

I stayed at this hotel about 5 years ago and it had recently been refurbished. It is tucked away down a side road but that meant that it was quiet and peaceful. The rooms were large, clean and very nicely decorated with two double beds, good air... more
