Some call it 'The Hong Kong of the Middle East' due to its fast developing and affluent nature whilst to others it is 'The Venice of the Middle East' because it is a city built on water. But nothing quite compares to Dubai. A city where the warm water of the Arabian Sea sparkles almost as much as the glittering jewels lining the gold souks, you are sure to be dazzled by the extraordinary beauty that is Dubai. From unspoilt, uncrowded, sandy beaches to exciting desert safaris where you can experience the thrill of 'dune-driving' or 'wadi-bashing' (a bone-shaking drive off the beaten track along dry creek beds) or perhaps a round of golf at one of Dubai's leading golf and yacht clubs, there is something for everyone! Dinner under the stars in a Bedouin camp whilst a beautiful belly-dancer entertains you, smoking 'hookah' and enjoying a camel ride and later, perhaps, even tasting the camel's freshly produced warm milk... this can only be Dubai! |
