UNITED ARAB EMIRATES

Have you ever imagined a place so glamourous that you can drink a gold-covered cappuccino in a palace?

This country is the United Arab Emirates.

The United Arab Emirates is one of the most unique countries that we have ever visited. From the world’s tallest building in Dubai to the gold-covered cappuccinos in the Emirates Palace in Abu Dhabi, the UAE does just about everything over the top. Dubai and Abu Dhabi are the country’s two most popular places to visit, and neither one disappoints. We had lofty expectations of Dubai, and the city really doesn’t disappoint.

While most travelers head straight to Dubai, we might have had an even better time in Abu Dhabi than we did in Dubai. While Dubai gets most of the international fame, Abu Dhabi has its own Louvre Museum, has Ferrari’s one and only amusement park, has the biggest and grandest mosque in the UAE, and has gold-covered cappuccinos. After all, Emirates is one of the most esteemed airlines in the world; it only makes sense that its home base is glamorous, too!
