Vacation in the UAE: The Essentials
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is the quickest destination for a spontaneous trip: no visa, about a 4-hour flight, and daily departures. That's why you can book a last-minute tour to the UAE literally for the coming weekend — all you need is an international passport.
Last-minute deals are usually 4–7 nights in Dubai, Sharjah, or Ras Al Khaimah. Dubai is the place to stay for the city and shopping, Ras Al Khaimah for the beach and all-inclusive, and Sharjah is the most budget-friendly option. Demand peaks from November to March; summer prices are lower, but the days are very hot.
