Social Events
It wasn’t all rugby. The team went through a busy social program designed to give them a flour of what Dubai has to offer its visitors. Here are some of the activates they experienced.
- Desert Safari & Dinner
The boys got to go on a desert safari. Whilst they were in the desert it rained. Rain in the desert is a very good omen for the local Arabs and was indeed a rare treat. - A visit to the local tailors:
Whilst in Dubai each member of the team got a tailor made Khandoorahs (local Arabic dress AKA Thoub) made for them. The boys all looked like Arabain Princes by the time they left. - Wild Wadi Water Park
One of the best Water Parks in the Middle East. - Ski Dubai Snow Park
Snow in the Desert? Yep that’s right and the boys got to roll around in it as well! The smiles on their faces were unforgettable. - Dubai City Tour hosted by UAE national Wael Al-Sayegh
- Shopping: Chinamart & Satwa
- Jumeriah Grand Mosque
We visited one of the most beautiful mosques in the city. - Al Boom Creek Dinner Cruise
We finished the tour off by having a lavish 4 course dinner meal cruise on the Dubai Creek. Our distinguished guests for the evening were non other than the South African Consul General Agnes Nyamande-Pitso & The South African Consul Willem Botes. We held the certificate ceremony on the boat as well.
