Hotels in the Middle East

It's hard to believe that the impressive capital city of the United Arab Emirates - Abu Dhabi - was once a small fishing village. The old fort, the Corniche and the magnificent Al-Hosn Palace are well worth visiting, and you'll find an abundance of Islamic art as you explore your surroundings.

At first glance, the famed city of Dubai is a modern centre of commerce and leisure; with world-class hotels, restaurants featuring every type of cuisine you can imagine and huge shopping malls with their annual festivals. Yet just below the surface beats Dubai's true heart, with its ancient mosques, haggler's paradise of the Gold Souk and the sight of ships unloading their exotic wares at Dubai Creek.

Fujairah, on the eastern coast, is full of historical treasures, including an old town and its 300-year-old fort. And north-west in Bithna you'll find the unforgettable Long Chambered Tomb.

Hotels in Egypt

Picture Egypt and you’ll probably think of the pharaohs and the last survivor of the Seven Ancient Wonders of the World: the Pyramids. But there’s a lot more to this country, as you’ll discover if you take a desert trek or trip down the Nile.
