Dubai is one of the seven Emirates that
form the United Arab Emirates and it
will come as a great surprise to those
who visit Dubai, how diverse a destination
this is.
Dubai is a city of contrasts where East
and West, the traditional and modern
blend harmoniously with the mystique
and culture of Arabia. As well as great
shopping, Dubai also offers a wealth
of activities including dune driving,
scuba diving, golf, horse riding, dune
skiing, wadi bashing and sailing.
Dubai also makes an excellent base for
exploring the other Emirates, to combine
with the ancient Sultanate of Oman or
to relax on the endless white sandy
beaches of the Jumeirah Coast. |

Having experienced the fascination of
the Middle East, you may wish to extend
your travels to the Far East, sample
the marvellous Maldivian beaches, visit
the temples of Thailand or Sri Lanka,
the Garden City™ of Singapore
or enjoy the blissful beaches of Mauritius.
With a fascinating array of contrasts
and arguably the best hotels in the
world, Dubai is an exciting destination
Πsophisticated, cosmopolitan and
mystical . . . the jewel of
the Middle East. |
