An Extended Journey of Bright Festivities & Striking Contrasts

Ring in the New Year with fireworks that light up the skies as we journey through the Gulf’s rich contrasts, from cutting-edge architecture to tranquil nature and seafaring towns that echo with centuries of tradition. Begin in the excitement of Dubai, then explore Fujairah’s peaceful coast, Manama’s heritage and Doha’s dynamic skyline. Loop once more from Dubai’s shores, sailing to Khor Fakkan’s dramatic cliffs, Sur’s lagoons, Muscat’s golden souks and a view of nature’s grandeur in Khasab.
