The Best of Abu Dhabi & Beyond

A green and pleasant city, Abu Dhabi has developed at a more relaxed pace than its sister emirate, Dubai. It retains a distinct Emirati feel, complemented by its ultra-luxury hotels, F1 races, and famous entertainment attractions, such as Ferrari World.

There’s a real focus on art in the city, in particular on Saadiyat Island - the cultural epicentre of Abu Dhabi - with several world-class galleries including the iconic Louvre Abu Dhabi and the upcoming Guggenheim. Sport is big in Abu Dhabi too, particularly golf, with some of the world’s most beautiful desert courses nearby.

In the far north of the peninsula, Ras Al Khaimah borders Oman’s legendary Musandam region, sharing a similar flair for spectacular geography. Backed by the rolling peaks of the Hajar Mountains and blessed with golden beaches, ‘RAK’ is one of the best places to go ‘off-radar’ in the UAE.

It’s the adventure capital of the UAE and standard tours will include visiting evocative sun-baked desert forts, traversing huge rolling dunes and relaxing at lush oasis springs. RAK also provides a mighty setting for a handful of the region’s premier golf courses.

East of Dubai, sleepy Fujairah offers beautiful beach scenes the rival of Oman’s Gulf coast. Its laid-back vibe lends itself to lazy beach days, and some of the most luxurious hotels in the UAE provide accommodation here. Perfect for enjoying a little R&R after visiting Abu Dhabi or Dubai.
