From the seemingly endless expanse of golden sands to glittering coastlines and futuristic cityscapes, The United Arab Emirates is a captivating oasis on the Arabian Peninsula. The country is a melting pot of history and culture where cutting-edge architecture meets a deep sense of tradition. It is made up of seven emirates: Abu Dhabi, Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Umm Al Quwain, Ras Al Khaimah and Fujairah.
This dynamic country offers you a diverse mix of ancient historical sites, interesting museums, cultural festivities, adventure sports and incredible shopping opportunities. Enjoy a warm Arabian welcome as you explore traditional souks, browsing for bargains; marvel at buildings like the towering Burj Khalifa in Dubai; or while away the hours wandering along the wide seafront walkways stopping at local cafes to sample some of the country’s best loved dishes.
The capital, Abu Dhabi presents a blend of iconic architecture and historic places of interest dotted across a series of islands. Visit the UAE’s largest mosque Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and Mangrove National Park.
