Team traWell has a soft spot for the UAE. Dubai is located on the southeast coast of the Persian Gulf, roughly at sea level. The emirate of Dubai shares borders with Abu Dhabi in the south, Sharjah in the northeast, and the Sultanate of Oman in the southeast.
Indulgent, glamorous, and progressive are words that describe Dubai. This United Arab Emirates city is known as a luxury travel destination. However, Dubai has a hidden heritage side that compasses rich and authentic assets that we want to bring to your attention. Dubai combines a modern metropolis with a timeless sensibility and Arabian flair. It’s a dining, shopping, and nightlife mecca where you can allow your adventurous side to take over and partake in excursions such as desert safaris, hot air balloon rides, and sand boarding. Enjoy the beaches, spas, waterparks, and famous golf courses. Whether you’re staring in awe at the Middle Eastern icon: Burj Khalifa, enjoying late-night drinks, or strolling through the chaotic Gold market and interacting with traders, there are so many unique facets of Dubai culture to experience on your next vacation.
