"Sir Bani Yas is now our favorite place to visit. The island is incredible and peaceful. We had an incredible time. The staff tried their best to handle everything but they seemed to be missing employees when we were there. Still it was the most incredible trip and our favorite place on the UAE. The wildlife tour is expensive but not to be missed"
