United Arab Emirates

The United Arab Emirates has a growing reputation for contemporary and innovative design. The country oozes opulence; look no further than the cities of Abu Dhabi and Dubai.


However, it’s not all futurism here; the UAE is home to vast deserts which make for sensational expeditions, whether by camel or car. Learn about the ancient art of falconry and witness the majestic birds of prey in action.


Culturally, Islamic practice has given birth to many beautiful mosques, none more so than the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. Undoubtedly, one of the highlights of the Emirates is its thriving art scene, with the Louvre and Guggenheim making Saadiyat Island their new home.
