Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates (UAE), is like no other city on earth. It conjures up images of gleaming skyscrapers set against the back drop of the vast Arabian Desert and glistening sea. See Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world, set alongside ancient mosques. Bargain for gold, spices and handicrafts at the atmospheric “suqs” markets. Dine on local delicacies while gently gliding past illuminated palaces on a traditional “dhow” evening cruise.
Our Arabian adventure continues when we ride nature’s roller coaster— jeeps across the dunes on our desert Safari. Overnight in the desert, ride camels and go sand surfing. After a magnificent sunset, feast under the stars accompanied by traditional belly dancing.
Contrasts abound in Dubai, from the Sheik’s stunning palace to the modest homes along the narrow lanes of Al Bastakiya of old Dubai. There is something for everyone’s taste with the most luxurious malls in the world to the breathtaking beauty of the vast beaches. Others options are relaxing at a spa or going to the ultimate indoor snow resort at Ski Dubai. Find out for yourself why Dubai is one of the world’s most intriguing destinations.
