With its glitzy hotels and man-made islands, Dubai’s reputation extends far beyond its desert borders. Not only is the Burj Khalifa the world’s tallest building, but the city is also home to the world’s largest shopping mall, featuring over 1,200 shops, an ice rink and an aquarium. However, there’s so much more to Dubai holidays than ogling over world records: savour the flavours of spiced Emirati cuisine; soak up the year-round sun on white sand beaches; dive into the city’s history in the Al Fahidi district; embark on thrilling dune drives; or cool off at one of the many water parks. Offering the perfect combination of modernity, tradition, relaxation and adventure, Dubai holidays have something for all types of travellers – from families to couples and everyone in between.

"The whole journey was seamless. Very efficient and I would definitely use Original Travel again and recommend them to friends. The flights and hotel were excellent and any problems were checked out before arrival to make sure everything ran smoothly. It did"
