Dubai & Ras al Khaimah

Discover Dubai

Begin your journey in Dubai, a city of contrasts where futuristic architecture sits side by side with age-old traditions. Stay in a stylish sea view room at JA Ocean View Hotel, located in the lively Jumeirah Beach Residence area. Explore towering icons like the Burj Khalifa, browse luxury boutiques and gold souks, or simply unwind on the beach beneath the sun-soaked sky.

Into the Dunes

Experience the stillness and grandeur of the desert on an early morning safari. After an exhilarating drive over rolling dunes, enjoy a peaceful 30-minute camel ride as the sun rises over the sand.

Ras Al Khaimah – A Coastal Retreat

Your next destination is the serene shoreline of Ras Al Khaimah, where the pace slows and nature takes centre stage. Check in to the Mövenpick Resort on Al Marjan Island and wake to uninterrupted sea views each morning.

Up in the Air

Your time in the Emirates wouldn’t be complete without a moment of awe. One morning, take to the skies in a hot air balloon as the sun rises over the desert. Watch the shifting shadows on the dunes below and take in the vast silence of the landscape.
