Dubai
It seems hard to imagine, but under Dubai’s glittering skyscrapers and monumental glamour is a history dating back to 1833, when the area around Dubai Creek was settled on by the Bani Yas tribe. Now home to stylish beaches, grand hotels, and lavish shopping malls, Dubai is the ultimate place for a luxurious and elaborate sun-soaked getaway.
To get a taste of Dubai life before its rapid modern expansion, wander the maze of streets in the Al Bastakiya quarter, taking in sights such as original Arab architecture and the Bastakiya Museum.
Afterwards, immerse yourself in the chic surroundings of modern downtown Dubai - experience the high life at the top of the immense 830m-tall Burj Khalifa, or discover a shopping experience like no other at the Mall of Dubai, which also houses a theme park, aquarium, and a genuine Diplodocus fossil.

New Delhi
A trip to New Delhi, India's dynamic capital, will introduce you to teeming bazaars, tree-lined boulevards, fascinating temples and historically important mosques. Somewhere between a place of intense spirituality and a dynamic eastern metropolis, this city offers something for all its visitors.
Its turbulent history is reflected in a wide variety of architectural styles, which testify to how the city has been destroyed and rebuilt many times. To see an example of the city's diverse cultural heritage, visit the Qutab Minar. This sandstone and marble brick minaret marked the beginning of Muslim rule in India. A short distance away, walkable by rickshaw, is the Presidential Palace (Rashtrapati Bhavan), where you can see the English and Indian architectural influences that characterise much of New Delhi. Walking along Rajpath Avenue (the King's Way), one can admire the Gateway of India, the monument to the Indian nation.
