United Arab Emirates

What you need to know before you go

The United Arab Emirates is one of the richest countries in the world, not only as a flourishing oil economy but also in terms of its history and culture. This makes it a premier destination for luxury getaways as well as serving as a gateway to discovering the Middle East. Among the 7 emirates (roughly, Arabic dynasties) that make up the UAE, Abu Dhabi, the capital, and Dubai, the commercial hub, are most popular.

Lining the Arabian peninsula’s east coast with glitzy skyscrapers and megamalls, Dubai offers awe-inspiring sights – the world’s largest manmade island, largest shopping mall, and tallest building are the few superlatives that call the ‘City of Gold’ home. Head out of the city and you can find desert beaches or have yourself a dune bashing safari adventure or ride camels and stay overnight in a Bedouin camp.
