Let Obaid AlBudoor and Salem Al Attas help you explore the spirit of Al Ain Region
Following the success of its debut, Al Ain: A Living Oasis is back for a second season — and it’s more immersive than ever.
Best friends Obaid AlBudoor and Salem Al Attas return to the UAE’s Garden City to uncover hidden gems, heartwarming stories, and unforgettable adventures.
This four-part series takes viewers far beyond the usual landmarks. The duo scale palm trees in ancient oases, race across golden dunes, and embrace wellness with sound healing and farm-to-table dining.
They kayak beneath the dramatic cliffs of Jebel Hafit, soar with Emirates Falcon Aviation, sandboard at full speed, and wind down beneath a canopy of stars at Pura Eco Retreat.

The heart of Al Ain
Along their journey, Obaid and Salem connect with the people of Al Ain, sharing meals, coffee, and stories that show the city’s signature warmth and hospitality.
“Every time I come back to Al Ain Region, it feels like coming home,” said Obaid. “There’s something about the landscapes and the people that makes you slow down and notice the small things.”
Salem added, “What surprised me this season was how many new sides of Al Ain Region we discovered. One day we were laughing down a sand dune, the next we were sitting quietly with locals over coffee.”
