holidays to United Arab Emirates

Nowhere is the mingling of past and present more evident than in United Arab Emirates' cosmopolitan city of Dubai – the starting point for many UAE luxury holidays. Gleaming skyscrapers and shopping malls jostle for position with Arab souks, mosques and wind towers in the most well known of the seven individual Emirates that make up the country. Steeped in the ancient culture and heritage of Arabia, the strong tradition of desert hospitality lives on in the genuine warmth and friendliness that welcomes any visitor.

Holidays to the United Arab Emirates with Abercrombie & Kent ensures you get the most out of your visit to this fascinating country.

See traditional architecture in religious buildings such as the multidomes Grand Mosque, boasting the tallest minaret in the area, or in traditional wind towers open on all four sides to catch the breeze which is then channelled down a central shaft to the room below.

Pristine sandy beaches and warm blue waters await you on your holiday in the UAE - a great way to escape the vagaries of the British climate. Shop to your heart's content in one of the largest gold souks in Arabia. Experience the thrill of dune driving or camel riding, play on one of Dubai's world-class golf courses or sail away on a dhow cruise.

As a delightful counterpoint the imposing Hajar Mountains are an oasis of calm amidst dramatic ridges, whilst the awesome expanse of the Arabian desert beckons you to discover its eerily romantic landscape. There is more to A&K United Arab Emirates luxury holidays than the gleaming city of Dubai.

Include Abu Dhabi during your holiday in the UAE and discover uninhabited islands off the coastline or the dramatic desert, mountains or wadis on a safari. Combining year round sunshine and superb leisure and recreational facilities, Abu Dhabi can offer cultural experiences, action packed holidays or relaxing escapes.

Pricing
At A&K all of our journeys are individually tailored to suit your needs and timescale. However, as a guide, 4 night holidays in United Arab Emirates will cost from £996 per person based on two adults sharing with flights from the UK and subject to availability.
