Traditional values of hospitality and respect sit happily alongside modern luxury and style in Abu Dhabi. Wall-to-wall sunshine, tranquil beaches and vibrant city life combine to offer a truly incredible holiday to Abu Dhabi.

Cultural attractions include the 200-year old Al Maqaa Fort, the Emirates Heritage Village and Hili Archaeological Gardens. Alternatively, if you head outside the city, why not try slide down towering sand-dunes on an unforgettable 4WD desert safari or why not head inland to explore majestic sand dunes, play a few rounds of golf on Championship courses or join a kayak tour of the surrounding mangroves and islands.

Kids Park allows children to interact with farm and wild animals whilst Sheikh Khalifa Park showcases Arabic and Islamic architecture to perfection. There are over 18 shopping malls in Abu Dhabi, with brand names ranging from IKEA to Chanel and Louis Vuitton. For more traditional arts and crafts, head to one of the souks instead, selling antiques, spices, oriental carpets and so much more.
