Your destinations

Dubai

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.

Colombo

Sri Lanka is a lush, tropical island paradise, famously described by Marco Polo as 'undoubtedly the finest island of its size in the world'. This is a culturally rich and environmentally diverse country, with nine World Heritage Sites (the oldest dating back to the 3rd Century BC); 86 species of mammals (including elephant and leopard) and more than 400 bird species (including 26 endemics); a colourful array of flowering plants and trees, and a Hill Country famous for tea; 14 National Parks out of 100 areas protected by the government; and an Indian Ocean coastline boasting palm-fringed and sandy tropical beaches.

 

Visit ancient sites and marvel over legendary temples, or see the sacred home of the world’s oldest living tree, Anuradhapura. Take a safari tour in one of Sri Lanka’s national parks to encounter elephants, leopards, water buffaloes, and exotic birds, or spend the day relaxing on the dazzlingly white, often virtually untrodden beaches.

 

Try your hand at a little surfing or retreat up into the Sri Lankan hills to experience a more temperate climate and the lavish greenery of the tea plantations. You can even trek through the rainforests with an experienced guide, or just take in the breathtaking vistas on a spectacular train ride.  

 

With fabulously flavoursome food and a vast array of culturally rich experiences to delve into, Sri Lanka promises to be one of your best-loved travel destinations, and the charm of the people will simply enchant you.
