United Arab Emirates

We can never talk enough about the Arab charm and atmosphere. Traveling through the United Arab Emirates is a special experience for all your senses.

Imagine yourself in an Arabian Nights fairy tale.

Get ready for a warm welcome, deserts as far as the eye can see, a rich culture and mountain villages that exude authenticity. But also flourishing cities where the sheikhs reign supreme and where wealth springs from the walls. From multi to mini and everything in between.

The impossible is achieved here, while a few minutes later you find yourself alone in the world. The Emirates are all different and the constant shift from modern to delightfully old-fashioned quickly becomes second nature. One thousand and one nights fairy tales, but in real life.

"The charm of this area cannot be described in words. I feel like coming home every time."

4 Emirates, 1001 Nights

from € 3479 - 10 days
Including flights, accommodation, activities and Dutch/French speaking guide

Discover the magic of the Emirates on a trip full of contrasts.
Penetrate deep into the heart of the emirates. Into a world of a thousand and one nights, where fairytale palaces and star-filled skies alternate with idyllic desert landscapes and modern skyscrapers. Of course you explore Dubai and the impressive Abu Dhabi, but we also take time to stop in 2 other Emirates.

In Sharjah you will get to know the most conservative state but also some of the country's finest museums. Drinking alcohol is forbidden there but in return you get 24 hours of unadulterated Islamic art and culture. And then there is Ras Al Khaimah, with its beautiful nature and beaches, its pearl divers and deserts. In short, a perfect blend of four unique emirates.
