Dubai, a city of striking contrasts, harmonises cutting-edge modernity with echoes of its humble beginnings along Dubai Creek. Founded in 1833 by the Bani Yas tribe, the city has grown into a global icon, known for its towering skyscrapers, world-class shopping, and lavish hospitality. Beneath its glitz lies a story of resilience and transformation.

Must-sees:

• Al Bastakiya Quarter: Step back in time with its preserved Arab architecture, art galleries, and the Bastakiya Museum.
• Burj Khalifa: Ascend the world’s tallest building for sweeping city views.
• Dubai Mall: A retail haven, complete with an aquarium, theme park, and Diplodocus fossil.

Culinary culture:

Dubai’s food scene celebrates its diverse influences. Traditional Emirati dishes such as machboos, a fragrant spiced rice dish, or luqaimat, sweet dumplings drizzled with date syrup, reflect the city’s heritage. Meanwhile, its multicultural population has fostered an array of global cuisines. For an authentic taste, visit a local souk to sample shawarma or freshly grilled seafood.

Dive deeper:

For an enriching contrast to Dubai’s urban glamour, explore the historic Dubai Creek, where traditional abras (water taxis) ferry visitors across the water. Visit the Gold Souk and Spice Souk to glimpse the city’s trading roots, or take a guided desert safari to learn about Bedouin traditions and stargaze under a clear Arabian sky.

Good to know:

The UAE dirham is the local currency, and the ideal time to visit is from November to March for pleasant weather. Public transport is efficient, though taxis are a popular and convenient choice. Modesty in dress is appreciated in cultural and historical areas, aligning with local customs.

Often overlooked in favour of its glitzier neighbours, Ras Al Khaimah is the UAE’s best-kept secret, an oasis of tradition, tranquillity, and adventure. Fringed by the Arabian Gulf and backed by the dramatic Hajar Mountains, this emirate offers a stark contrast to the steel and sparkle of Dubai. 

Must-sees:

• Jebel Jais: The UAE’s highest mountain, home to the world’s longest zipline and panoramic hiking trails with awe-inspiring views.
• Dhayah Fort: Perched atop a hill, this 18th-century fortress offers a window into the region’s past and breathtaking vistas across the palm-dotted plains.
• Al Jazirah Al Hamra: A perfectly preserved ghost town showcasing traditional coral-stone architecture and a hauntingly beautiful glimpse of pre-oil Arabia.
• Ras Al Khaimah National Museum: Housed in a former fort, this museum is a treasure trove of archaeological artefacts and local folklore.
• Al Wadi Desert: Explore vast desertscapes on camelback, try falconry, or enjoy a Bedouin-style dinner under the stars in this tranquil wilderness.

Culinary culture:

Ras Al Khaimah’s cuisine reflects its rich Bedouin and coastal roots. Tuck into grilled meats, fragrant rice dishes like harees and thareed, or freshly caught hammour fish. Don’t miss machboos, a spiced rice dish often served with lamb or seafood. Try luqaimat, golden, syrup-drenched dumplings, for a sweet finish, washed down with strong Arabic coffee and dates. Beachside resorts and local souks alike offer a delicious taste of Emirati hospitality.

Dive deeper:

Beyond the beaches and dunes, Ras Al Khaimah invites you to slow down and connect. Rise early for a mountain sunrise on Jebel Jais, or paddle through the serene mangroves of Al Rams by kayak. Spend time in a local fishing village, where wooden dhow boats are still handcrafted by artisans. Stay in a desert resort blending luxury with authenticity, or opt for an eco-lodge in the mountains. From pearl diving history to stargazing in the silent desert, this emirate offers soulful encounters you won’t soon forget.

Good to know:

Ras Al Khaimah is just a one-hour drive from Dubai, making it easily accessible yet worlds apart in atmosphere. The best time to visit is between October and April for cooler weather. The local currency is the UAE dirham (AED), and English is widely spoken. Modest dress is appreciated outside of resorts. Whether you’re hiking in the mountains or relaxing by the sea, Ras Al Khaimah is a serene slice of Arabia still rooted in its traditions.
