The United Arab Emirates comprises seven emirates, of which Abu Dhabi is the capital and largest city. Dubai, with its stunning capital situated on the coast midway between Abu Dhabi and the most northern point of the federation, is perhaps the best known emirate to western holidaymakers.

The UAE is now one of the world’s fastest growing tourist destinations thanks to its warm welcome, fabulous climate, stunning beaches, intriguing culture and unrivalled shopping, dining and sports facilities. Away from the cities and tourist beaches you will find miles of untouched desert, incredible sand dunes, lush oases, rugged mountain ranges and fertile plains.
