An Extended Journey of Shoreline Serenity & Dazzling Celebrations

Embark on a festive voyage from the modern metropolis of Dubai to the mountain-backed shores of Khor Fakkan. Trace Oman’s ancient seafaring legacy in Sur, then admire Muscat’s souks and Khasab’s fjord-like allure. From Dubai once more, cast off to Fujairah’s serene beaches and embrace adventure in Abu Dhabi. Bright fireworks burst in the night sky as we welcome the New Year. Then, from Manama’s lively heritage, we sweep to Doha’s traditions and modern edges before our finale in Dubai.
