    Getting TO/AROUND: To get here you can either drive from Sanaa via Marib or Al Mukalla as I did or if you are pressed for time you can fly Yemenia into Sayun and it is a 15 min or so drive from the airport.
    I would suggest driving in and flying out if time is critical. Shibam sits in the middle of Wadi Hadramawt which is basically a huge canyon full of small villages...Not the Grand Canyon..but close in my book and more fun to see.

     Brilliant General tip. They dont recycle, judging by the number of coke cans that litte the road. As for the discarded quat bags....    		grets Sat Jul 7, 2007 12:46 UTC
     Shiban is my main attraction in Yemen too - I am sorry you were disappointed. I do like the idea of getting the kids to pick up garbage for a tip. :-)
