TRAVEL TIPS WHEN TO GO

The climate of the Arabian Peninsula is characterised by year round sunshine, pleasant, mild winters, very hot, sunny summers and little rain. Visit between November and March when the waters of the gulf are perfect for swimming, the days are sunny and the evenings cooler. Many festivals and sporting events are held over these months to coincide with the cooler temperatures. The summer months from May to October are the hottest with average temperatures in the high30s to mid-40s and increased humidity. During this time, discounted accommodation is often available, and it is when the many indoor attractions come to the fore making the Arabian Peninsula a year round destination.

A valid passport is required with at least six months validity beyond the intended stay. No advance visa is required for entry into the United Arab Emirates and Qatar. Australian passport holders can apply for a 30 day visa upon arrival in United Arab Emirates and Qatar. Travel advice is available from the Australian Government at smartraveller.gov.au.

TIME

Dubai and Abu Dhabi are 6 hours behind Australian Eastern Standard Time (AEST) and Qatar is 7 hours behind AEST.

Qatar: 240V/50Hz An adapter is required.

ETIQUETTE & TIPPING

Visitors to the Arabian Peninsula need to be considerate of local customs and traditions, especially when visiting mosques or other significant religious sites. Tipping is appreciated but isn’t compulsory. Most restaurants add a service charge to their bill, in which case a tip is unnecessary.

The holy month of Ramadan is the most spiritual period for Muslims and is dedicated to fasting, worship and spiritual reflection. Ramadan is observed throughout the Arabian Peninsula and we recommend you make yourself aware of how it may affect your travel plans. The dates for Ramadan follow the Islamic lunar calendar and change each year. In 2020, Ramadan is from 24 April to 23 May. Daytime is often quieter, business hours are generally shorter with restaurants and cafés screened off or closed out of respect for those who are fasting. In the evening, cities come to life; public places will be busy well into the early hours of the morning. Ramadan ends with a three day celebration and holiday called Eid Al Fitr.

EXPERIENCES YOU’LL LOVE

The best part of any journey is the experiences you have along the way, leaving you with memories to relive long after the holiday is over. The Arabian Peninsula has countless amazing things to see and do. Here are 10 of our favourites to inspire your wanderlust.

Souk Madinat Jumeirah, Dubai

Sheikh Zayed Mosque, Abu Dhabi

A SHOPPER’S PARADISE

ICONIC LANDMARKS

Shopping is a national pastime across the Arabian Peninsula, from traditional markets or souks to luxury shopping that rivals Paris or New York. The bright, bustling atmosphere of the souks offers a taste of then and now. Purchase fresh spices, handcrafted gold, delicate fabrics or visit a perfume souk to have a scent custom made. World class malls elevate the shopping experience to new heights and are a destination in themselves. Abu Dhabi, Dubai and Doha are home to many iconic malls including the world’s largest, The Dubai Mall.

No visit to the Arabian Peninsula would be complete without seeing the iconic landmarks. In Dubai, view the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, and the six star hotel, Burj Al Arab. Catch a monorail along the Palm Jumeirah to Atlantis, The Palm. Abu Dhabi also has its share of landmarks including the awe-inspiring Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and the stunning Louvre Abu Dhabi. In Doha, see the twisting, spiral shaped minaret of the Al Fanar Mosque and the impressive Museum of Islamic Art.

Anantara Qasr Al Sarab Desert Resort, Abu Dhabi

THE DESERT Head anywhere in the Arabian Peninsula and be amazed by the stunning scenery. Venture into Abu Dhabi’s Rub Al Khali or the Empty Quarter to see the world’s largest uninterrupted sand mass and its towering dunes, while Qatar’s ‘Inland Sea’ is a must see. The Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve provides one of the best opportunities to view native wildlife. Scale the dunes on a thrilling desert safari or glide above the desert in a hot air balloon. Indulge in a night at a luxury desert resort and wake early for nature’s first show of the day, a tranquil desert sunrise.

DUBAI CREEK

CULTURE AND HISTORY

Dubai may be known for its high-rise towers but the heart of the city and the reason for its existence is, and always will be, the Creek. It was vital for what was Dubai’s economy, pearl diving and fishing. Over the course of the last century the Creek has been widened and recently extended to create the Dubai Canal. Brimming with history, the area is home to the Dubai Museum and the mazelike alleyways of the gold, spice and textile souks. Hop aboard an abra and admire old and new Dubai as you sail past or enjoy a sunset dinner cruise aboard a traditional Arabian Dhow.

The blend of old and new make for an incredible cultural experience. Delve into Dubai’s culture at the Sheikh Mohammed Centre for Cultural Understanding. Visitors are invited to take part in activities including Arabic lessons, cultural meals and guided tours. In Abu Dhabi, explore the UNESCO World Heritage Site, Al Ain, to see the historic Al Jahili Fort or the city’s oasis with its cool shady walkways and 3000 year old irrigation system. Visit Qatar’s many museums and galleries, home to the country’s cultural gems.
