We checked in at the serene The Ritz-Carlton Abu Dhabi, Grand Canal, where we donned our thawbs and abayas ready to visit the absolutely breathtaking Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque.

This was followed by lunch and a site visit at the impressive Mandarin Oriental Hotel Group, Emirates Palace. After lunch we explored Qasr Al Watan, the working Presidential Palace.
Our last stop of the day was to the Louvre Abu Dhabi, where the building was just as impressive as the artifacts inside.

Our day started with a wholesome kayak in the Jubail Island mangrove park. We ramped up the adrenaline as we hopped on the The Yellow Boats Abu Dhabi to take us to the absolutely stunning Nurai Island where we spent some time at the beach club. We got the hearts racing once more with a trip to Ferrari World Yas Island, Abu Dhabi where we buckled up and prepared to be blasted 240km/h in 4.9 seconds on the world's fastest rollercoaster.

We ended our day in the dreamy Saadiyat Beach Club with sunset drinks and dinner.

We had a quick pit stop in Dubai at the Nakheel's view at the Palm. We stayed in the Mövenpick Resort Al Marjan Island, which gave off real tropical boho vibes. We spent the afternoon at the The Ritz-Carlton Ras Al Khaimah, Al Wadi Desert and it’s sensational 16-station spa ending the night feasting at Farmhouse, which offers a has a farm-to-table menu.

Our fourth and final day was all about action and adventure, starting with a sunrise swim and ride with champion-racing camels. A boat ride and tour of the Suwaidi Pearls Farm. A lunch at 1484 by Puro, named after its height, which is 1,484 metres above sea level the highest peak in the UAE and boasts a magnificent panorama of Jebel Jais. The team looked fear in the eye, and flew the world’s longest zipline, Jais flight and then hopped on the Jais sledder.


We ended our night and our trip in the most spectacular and surreal way possible. We hiked up to 1770m above sea level to camp 1770, for a sunset dinner and star gazing – we even dipped our toes over the border into Oman!
