Come embark on an exciting travel adventure with Central Holidays United Arab Emirates vacation packages. The discovery of oil in 1966 transformed a small village on the banks of the Dubai Creek into the most prestigious urban development initiative in the Middle East almost overnight. Before its rapid rise to the international vacation scene, Dubai sustained itself on pearl diving, and that heritage of gems and glamour has not been forgotten. Luxury is in the city's blood - Dubai can lay claim to Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest skyscraper; the sail-shaped Burj Al Arab, the world's tallest and only seven-star hotel; the World Islands, a collection of 300 man-made islands arranged like the world atlas; the Palm Islands, three artificial islands in the shape of the date palm tree; and the Dubai Mall, the world's largest shopping mall. Stable, safe, and friendly, Dubai and the United Arab Emirates are a premier vacation destination for the world traveler who wants to see it all. Beyond travel to Dubai, take time to travel to Abu Dhabi, a shining gem of the United Arab Emirates. It's a place where East and West meet and mix in perfect combination, mesmerizing travelers at every turn.
