How to Travel to the UAE in Style and Luxury

• Automotive, Business Services, Travel

The United Arab Emirates isn’t just a getaway, it’s a luxury vacation. It’s an opportunity to live life to the fullest, and almost anyone can do it. Once you rent a car in Abu Dhabi, especially a Mercedes or a Maserati, you’ll have some idea of what’s in store for you. Vast shopping malls full of attractions are just a short drive away, with exotic food and restaurants all over the city. It’s easy to get lost in luxury when you visit Abu Dhabi, but only if you plan ahead.

 Tour the Dunes

Most reputable tour companies offer a trip into the sand dunes. You set out early in the day, usually with some food and a few play things, and a tour guide will take you about an hour outside of the city proper. There, you’ll visit camel farms and go for camel rides, discover sand dunes and “sand skiing”, and try shisha (a water pipe with fruit flavored tobacco).

It’s a chance to experience a part of the world you’ve never imagined, and it’s guaranteed to be one of the most unique experiences you will ever have.

Visit the Mosques

You’ll want to make time to visit the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque. You can participate in the free guided tour, which takes you through a grand mosque that was first opened to the public in 2008. There, you can take photos and learn more about the culture of the UAE. The people of the UAE are religious and conservative, so be sure that you respect their rules. That means coverage of women, except for hands, feet and face. If you need clarity, check the mosque website for more details.

Small infractions are forgivable, but have potential to cause offense. If you do not wish to inadvertently offend someone, it’s best to observe proper dress where it’s required.

Buy Gold

Gold shops are not in the main mall, but they are a stop you’ll want to visit for sure. The Middle East sells lots of gold, and you can find 24k gold easily. The best part is that you can bargain for whatever you want and get a surprisingly good deal on it. You can also view authentic Iranian carpets at specialty shops throughout the city, but you’ll need a car rental in Abu Dhabi to get around.
