WHAT WE LIKE about this program - Comfortable provincial town, located on the border between UAE & Oman - Small, professional school - Convenient downtown location

Enjoy an Arabic language course in Oman at our language school in the city of Buraimi.

Buraimi is the sister town of Al Ain (UAE) and located on the Omani side of the border that divides the two. Visitors can move freely between the two cities, making this a fine way to get a taste of the UAE without the hassle of obtaining a visa. Al Ain is the main town in the Buraimi Oasis, which is probably the longest inhabited part of what is now the UAE.

Shaikh Zayed, the current ruler of Abu Dhabi, was born in Al Ain and has lavished funds on it. Buraimi has not received the attention and remains a comfortable provincial town. The resulting contrast between the two communities makes this an interesting spot to visit and learn Arabic.

SCHOOL FACILITIES - Small professional school - Modern building close to all amenities - 6 air-conditioned classrooms - Great facilities including social area and kitchen
