O<br />

n this tour we explore the fascinating<br />

countries of Lebanon and Oman, and the<br />

exciting emirates of Dubai and Abu Dhabi in<br />

the United Arab Emirates, all ancient cultures<br />

rich in history, stunning natural beauty and<br />

exciting modern development.<br />

We begin in Lebanon, at the crossroads of<br />

three continents. The Lebanese are a blend of<br />

Mediterranean and Middle Eastern with large<br />

doses of French panache. The legacy of the<br />

French occupation left its obvious mark on<br />

Lebanon’s cuisine, language and culture (after<br />

all, Beirut is known as the “Paris of the Middle<br />

East”). We will experience the revitalized<br />

Beirut, explore the archaeological wonders<br />

(windows into the cradle of civilization) and<br />

simply enjoy the hospitable, friendly and<br />

gregarious people.<br />

Next is Dubai, a glittering desert gem where<br />

extreme luxury and international flavor co-exist<br />

with a traditional society. The contrast of aweinspiring<br />

sky scrapers of steel and glass<br />

overlooking old wooden boats unloading their<br />

spices and wares makes this a very unique<br />

destination. Our touring here will include a visit<br />

to the top of the tallest building in the world, the<br />

Lost City of Atlantis, the man-made island of<br />

Palm Jumeirah, and much, much more.<br />

From Dubai we travel to the capital of the<br />

United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi. Situated on<br />

a small peninsula surrounded by a cluster of<br />

islands, it is an ultra-modern city with broad<br />

boulevards, tall buildings, bustling shops and<br />

restaurants, as well as attractive parks and<br />

gardens. We will visit impressive Sheikh<br />

Zayed Grand Mosque, the lively Fish Market,<br />

historic Al Hosn Fort and the Heritage Village to<br />

experience how life was lived in the past.<br />
