Seek out jet-set haunts or stroll through the heart of the old city, Dubai Creek, which is home to the Dubai museum as well as the labyrinth alleyways of gold, spice and textile souks, where bargaining is part of the fun and ritual.
Dubai In Port: 22 December 2026

Khor al Fakkan In Port: 23 December 2026
Surrounded by the Hajar Mountains and flanked by pristine white-sand beaches is Khor Al Fakkan (meaning Creek of Two Jaws) on the Gulf of Oman. The town's laid-back vibe offers more in the way of relaxation than excitement and bustle. The Corniche with its palm trees, gardens, restaurants and cafés makes a pleasant stroll.
Sur, Oman In Port: 24 December 2026
Experience Oman’s desert magic and coastal beauty. Ride the dunes of Wahiba Sands, swim in turquoise wadis, and see the glowing Bimmah Sinkhole. Visit turtle sanctuaries, stroll Sur’s corniche and dhow yards, then unwind on pristine beaches where turtles and rays glide through the Arabian Sea.
Muscat, Oman In Port: 26 December 2026
In this low-rise gem, wedged between Arabian Gulf and scenic mountains, your first impression will be of the Sultanate of Oman's beautiful main palace. Three forts Mutrah, Jalali and Mirani stand guard at the entrance of Muscat. Once ashore witness lavish palaces, Zawawi Mosque, its pink marble crowned by a gilded dome, and Muttrah Souq, a jumble of crafts and clothing perfumed with spices and frankincense.
Khasab, Oman In Port: 27 December 2026
Khasab is the capital of Oman's stunning Musandam peninsula, which is isolated from the majority of the country by the neighbouring United Arab Emirates. Sometimes dubbed the 'Norway of Arabia' due to its fjord-like craggy inlets and mountain-lined coast, the region's terrain is dramatic and beautiful.
