As your flight descends into the UAE, it wouldn’t be surprising if you mistook the skyscraper dotted skyline for a city in Europe. UAE is a union of seven sovereign sheikhdoms that were formed in 1971 when the British withdrew from the Gulf. The United Arab Emirates (UAE) has a unique blend of traditional Islamic culture and values alongside a modern cosmopolitan living environment.

The oil rich economy has been utilised to upgrade visitor facilities and make UAE the ultimate destination with its world-class hotels, water sports events and shopping extravaganzas.  Whether it is the copious duty free shopping and the razzle dazzle of the gold souks of Dubai, the museums of Abu Dhabi or the Islamic architecture of Sharjah, a visit to the UAE is a fusion of the exotic experience of the Middle East with the comforts of the west.
