Destination

Dubai, United Arab Emirates

Dubai represents one of the world’s most remarkable economic transformations, evolving from a small fishing village into a futuristic metropolis and global business hub.

This dazzling desert city is home to the world’s tallest building – the 828-metre Burj Khalifa – as well as landmark attractions including Dubai Opera, Palm Jumeirah and celebrated beachfront resorts. Beyond the contemporary skyline, Dubai’s heritage remains central to its character. Visitors can explore the restored lanes, wind-tower architecture and cultural attractions of the Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood, formerly known as Bastakiya, or take an abra across Dubai Creek to experience the historic heart of the city.

With its blend of culture, coastline, desert landscapes and contemporary attractions, Dubai offers a distinctive setting for both leisure and business travellers.
