The tallest mountain in the UAE, Jebel Jais, with a height of around 1930 metres, is located in the emirate. Temperatures fluctuate from 16°C to 25°C in December and 30°C to 40°C in July, and can reach highs of 45°C and above during the summer months. Arabic is the official language, but English is also widely spoken in the emirate, particularly in the business community. Legal documents, however, must be written in, or translated into, Arabic before they can be submitted to government agencies in English. A handshake is the first introduction in a business setting. In any greeting between men and women, the woman must extend her hand first. If she does not, a man should bow his head. Accepting or offering anything with the left hand is considered to be impolite. Hiring a car is easy and affordable, but taxis are a convenient option as well. No international driving licence is required to hire or drive a car in the UAE, and one drives on the right side of the road. The trip from RAK to Dubai by car takes about one hour.
