The world's richest city and the capital of the UAE boasts a wealth of culture, history and adventure, from the emirate's old souks, where you can sip a fragrant Arabic coffee, to the rush of the world's fastest rollercoaster.

Sir Bani Yas Island, off the coast of Abu Dhabi in the United Arab Emirates, stands as a unique blend of luxury, history, and wildlife conservation. Originally a royal retreat, it has been transformed into a wildlife reserve, home to thousands of free-roaming animals, including the Arabian Oryx, gazelles, and giraffes. The island's landscape is dotted with lush mangrove forests and beautiful beaches, offering a tranquil escape and various nature-driven activities.

Archaeological sites on the island tell tales of ancient civilizations, including a 7th-century Christian monastery that visitors can explore. With its carefully preserved environment and rich heritage, Sir Bani Yas offers an exceptional encounter with both nature and history in a secluded setting.

Arrives: 09:00

The lure of Dubai is irresistible, from its glittering mega-skyscrapers to its traditional Islamic roots. Dubai’s most iconic sights include the 160-story Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest skyscraper, and the Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, a luxury resort which happens to be shaped like a boat’s sail.

Dubai is all about luxe shopping, high-end boutiques, unique souqs (markets) and cultural institutions like the Dubai Museum. While you’re stopped on a Dubai cruise, you’re meant to live it up on unforgettable excursions like a helicopter tour of the city or a camel ride at the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve.

Large ship   4 , NSW, Australia, Oct 2023
Was hesitant about being on a ship as large as the MSC Euribia, but chose the cruise for the itinerary. The ship is beautiful, our cabin 10130 was a good size and everything was kept clean, but there were too many people for our liking. Also there is not enough seating in the bar/lounge areas (especially sea days). Also appeared not to be enough wait ...read more staff in those areas as it was hard to place a drinks order and then a long wait to receive them! Food served in the Colorado restaurant for dinner was excellent and the table waiters were very good. Remembered our preferences for drinks and also the butter for the bread rolls!

Unfortunately due to a storm in the English Channel we had to miss the port of Le Havre. Was expecting a refund of the port charges but not to be. Other cruise lines refund but not MSC apparently. This was our 1st MSC cruise and probably our last - prefer other cruise lines such as Princess or Holland America. There were a large number of children on board which we hadn’t anticipated (didn’t realise it was end of school break in England). Plenty of activities on board for children and would probably be a good holiday for families. Embarkation and disembarkation were handled well and did not take long. As we did our own thing in each port, rather than a ship excursion, the provision of shuttle buses into the city centres were a great help. As usual Tracey and the team at Global Journeys were great with all aspects of our booking. Will happily use again for future trips.
