The United Arab Emirates (or UAE) has long been on my bucket list. It always sounded like an amazing place, full of amazing best places to visit in UAE and out-of-this-world attractions. I can’t say I have been disappointed.

There are so many things to do in UAE that I think I could spend a long time here. So far, I have only been lucky enough to visit Abu Dhabi (read about it here) and I was blown away by the mix of modern and traditional, desert, sea and development. It’s an amazing city and it exceeded any expecation I had.

Etihad Towers, Abu Dhabi

We plan to visit Dubai and some more tourist places in UAE in 2017. There are so many United Arab Emirates destinations from the tourist magnets of Dubai and Abu Dhabi to the dessert to lesser known cities like Sharjah. We look forward to exploring them all!

In the meantime, you can read our full guide to Abu Dhabi and our family hotel guide to Dubai. You can also read my full review of Etihad Airways business class.
