The Middle East, a seductive land where humankind built its first cities and learnt how to write, and it was from here that Judaism, Christianity and Islam all arose. The rolling deserts of WAHIBA SANDS play host to remote desert camps where you can sleep under the stars, there are secret plush oasis filled with emeralds waters hidden across the baron lands of SAUDI ARABIA, while metropolitan high rise cities like QUATAR form playgrounds for the rich. The Middle East is far less travelled in many ways due to it's expensive and more conservative views, as well as years of turmoil but there are still plenty of safe destinations to explore that won't hurt the wallet too much.
One of my fondest travel memories to date was exploring rural OMAN and hiking through the canyons looking for watering holes to swim in. I'll never forget discovering the shimmering waters of WADI BANI KHALID, swimming through waterfalls and diving into hidden craters.

Oman the jewel in the Crown of the Middle East, is a tantalising land of Abrabian magic, from Muscat to Salalah, prepare to be blow away by a land of outstanding beauty. It has everything from pink lakes to turtle beaches to whitewashed fortress citied and emerald green desert oasis.

Dubai, one of the most well known states in the UAE, is today the epicentre of Middle Eastern culture and travel. It's usually the first place that springs to mind when talking about this region of the world.
With its ambitious and futuristic outlook, the skyscrapers of Dubai are like non other in the world. The city plays host to some the most iconic hotels as well as award winning restaurants, it's hard not to admire Dubais ability to innovate and move ahead into the future.

Beyond the calm of the mangroves and rolling desert dunes sits the modern and artistic state of Abu Dhabi. Another of the popular UAE states and by far one of my favourite. Abu Dhabi is home to one of the most beautiful mosques in the world, Grand Mosque sheikh Zayed. Now with its growing art scene thanks to the installation of the Lourve, the city is an unmissable stop on your Middle Eastern adventure.
