05 Mar The ghost city

Al Jazirat Al Hamra is a very ancient town populated by people from the Za’ab’s tribe before they moved to  Abu Dhabi. At a first sight, this place is characterized by a mysterious,  mist-shrouded atmosphere, far away from the glittering and the skyscrapers of Dubai.

A ghost town?

All around a spectral atmosphere, a real ghost town: the main paths meander through this village—passing by mosques, and houses with features like wooden doors, wind-towers, walls that were covered by coral rags, roofs built with palm trunks and courtyards with a view on the sea.
The town has been progressively abandoned by its inhabitants over the years, leaving space to the desert and the ancient ruins for the joy of many photographers coming from all the world to spend a few hours taking extraordinary picture.

People also say that visiting this place a strange presence may appear: some talks about spirits from the Islamic tradition, which are mentioned in the Koran.

Sustainable adventure?

The scenary of Al Jazirat al Hamra, for its particularity, the mixture of history and mystery, the wide desert and the ruins towards the sea, make this town an ideal destination of sustainable tourism.
Why don’t we  immerse  into that magic atmosphere, made of history, genuineness, so far way from the extravagances of mass tourism?

A location for a treasure hunt?

This idea tickles our mind : how would it be a team building activity in these places ?
We want to give ourselves a response. Jazirat Al Hamra is an excellent location for a treasure hunt . With our treasure hunt you can explore the city in an unusual and fun way. Participants will be divided into groups and after a short initial brief , they  have to follow a path consisting of several check points, doing some activities including the search for clues, with the aim to arrive before the others.

Treasure hunt is an activity that combines the training aspect with the recreational purpose: on one hand encourages group cohesion , team spirit , the ability of intuition enhancing personal relationships, on the other hand it is a fun and special way to visit a city , discovering the culture , the traditions , the major points of interest.

In addition to the treasure hunt, we planned several photographic activities that will allow teams to capture the wonders of these places making this experience even more extraordinary and unique .

Who will adventure with us?
