Planning your Yemen trip
- Sana'a and Wadi DharSana'a's old city has tall historic houses and World Heritage status. Nearby Wadi Dhar has Dar al-Hadschar Palace, also called the rock house.
- SocotraThis island has white beaches, turquoise seas and many species found nowhere else. Government warnings against travel also include Socotra.
- KawkabanThis high fortress town has old buildings, ancient inscriptions and views across a plain of mud-brick towns.
- Ma'ribThe former capital of the Sabaean Kingdom has a famous ancient dam, temples and historic remains.
Scams to watch for in Yemen
- Unregistered tours that leave out paid servicesUnregistered operators sell tours but may provide poor service, misleading information or only part of what you paid for. The Ministry of Tourism cannot help with problems involving an unregistered operator or service provider.
- Taxi fare inflated after the journeyA driver quotes a high fare or charges a high price after arrival if you did not agree on the fare first. Bargaining is expected. In Sana'a, an opening quote can often fall by about a third after bargaining.
- Inflated opening prices for touristsSellers may begin with a high tourist price. Bargaining is expected and usually brings a discount. Guides sometimes ask for the "Yemeni price". A high opening price is not proof of fraud, but accepting it immediately may mean paying more than necessary.
