Explore the Emirates
Each of the UAE’s emirates brings its own vibe. Here’s where to start:
🌆 Dubai holidays
If you think of the UAE, you think Dubai—skyscrapers, man‑made islands, luxury resorts, and world‑class shopping. Explore Jumeirah Beach, take in views from the Burj Khalifa, or splash around at Atlantis Aquaventure Waterpark. Perfect for couples, families, and anyone who loves a bit of glam.
🕌 Abu Dhabi holidays
The UAE’s cultural heart and capital, Abu Dhabi blends heritage with high‑octane fun. Visit the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, explore Louvre Abu Dhabi, or hit the rollercoasters at Ferrari World. Its beaches and luxury resorts make it ideal for a more laid‑back escape.
🏔 Ras Al Khaimah breaks
Craving adventure? Head to Ras Al Khaimah, where the Hajar Mountains meet golden sands. It’s the place for desert safaris, hiking trails, zip‑lining, and all‑inclusive resorts with a quieter vibe than Dubai. Families and thrill‑seekers will love it.
🌊 Fujairah escapes
Tucked on the UAE’s eastern coast, Fujairah is a snorkelling and diving paradise. Think rugged mountains, coral‑rich waters, and chilled beach resorts - a dreamy spot for relaxation and nature lovers.
🌅 Ajman Getaways
The UAE’s smallest emirate packs in charming beaches, boutique resorts, and local culture. It’s the perfect base for a quiet, budget‑friendly stay with easy access to Dubai and Sharjah.
