More About Abu Dhabi
Experience Abu Dhabi: Culture, Luxury & Coastal Bliss in the UAE’s Capital
Abu Dhabi is the elegant and sophisticated heart of the UAE — a city where modern luxury blends seamlessly with deep-rooted Emirati culture. As the capital of the United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi offers a more laid-back alternative to Dubai, without compromising on world-class experiences, natural beauty, or indulgent luxury. From pristine white-sand beaches and majestic desert landscapes to cutting-edge architecture and iconic cultural landmarks, Abu Dhabi promises an unforgettable escape.
Whether you’re planning a romantic getaway, a cultural adventure, or a luxurious family holiday, Abu Dhabi delivers a unique blend of relaxation and discovery. The newly revitalised Saadiyat Island has emerged as a global hotspot for art, culture, and barefoot luxury, home to ultra-luxury resorts like the Jumeirah at Saadiyat Island Resort, The St. Regis Saadiyat Island, and the striking Louvre Abu Dhabi — a must-see masterpiece of modern design and cultural heritage.
For thrill-seekers, Yas Island is the entertainment capital of the UAE, where you can ride the world’s fastest roller coaster at Ferrari World, splash through Yas Waterworld, and experience action-packed fun at Warner Bros. World Abu Dhabi. 2025 also brings the launch of exciting new attractions, including SeaWorld Abu Dhabi, the region’s largest marine life theme park.
Explore the serenity of the Empty Quarter (Rub’ al Khali) with luxury desert resorts like Qasr Al Sarab by Anantara, offering camel treks, sunset dunes, and stargazing like nowhere else on earth. For lovers of heritage and tradition, don‘t miss the awe-inspiring Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque – a symbol of modern Islamic architecture and one of the world’s most beautiful religious landmarks.
Abu Dhabi also offers superb shopping, from designer boutiques at The Galleria Al Maryah Island to bustling souks filled with authentic Arabian treasures. With year-round sunshine, impeccable hospitality, and an emerging culinary scene that rivals any global capital, Abu Dhabi is a destination that surprises and delights at every turn.
