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 />
