Along with the scorching Arabian weather, you can enjoy shopping in the world’s largest mall, dining on the finest Arabic cuisine and taking in a mix of traditional Bedouin music and popular culture. The Dubai Museum is also a good stop for those interested in the history of the city. The Dubai cityscape comprises a staggering collection of soaring glass skyscrapers, more than any other city in the world and as of 2010 boasts the world’s tallest building, the striking Khalifa Tower standing at a colossal 2,716 feet.

 

Abu Dhabi is the United Arab Emirate’s official capital city and is situated just south of Dubai along the Persian Gulf Coast. Abu Dhabi rivals Dubai as one of UAE’s most popular short break holiday destinations and also offers a wide range of activities and excitement for visitors from all over the world on a city break in United Arab Emirates.

Over 400km of stunning coastline with many attractive beaches scattered along the shore makes a sun city break to Abu Dhabi a great option for those keen to really kick back and relax. Whatever you choose to do, there’s no doubting that you will find something extravagant and unique at every turn on a United Arab Emirates city break.
