Ras Al Khaimah Holidays


the middle east
Ras Al Khaimah holidays promise guaranteed sunshine, sandy beaches and a superb collection of luxurious resorts - offering exceptional value in a wonderfully relaxed setting.

Just an hour's drive from the bright lights of Dubai, this largely undiscovered emirate boasts pristine beaches, rugged mountains, tranquil deserts and some of the most luxurious resorts in the UAE at a fraction of the cost of its neighbour.

If you're not relaxing on the beautiful beaches, Ras Al Khaimah offers a host of activities to tempt you from superb golf courses and desert safaris to historical sites and cultural attractions. Stay on Al Marjan Island for its calm waters and excellent watersports, visit Al Hamra Village with its pretty marina or explore UAE’s highest mountain Jebel Al Jais for some great hiking, biking and climbing opportunities.

Trailfinders offers a range of Ras Al Khaimah holidays and our expert travel consultants are a mine of information about what to do here, often with first-hand travel experience. Whether you want to explore Ras Al Khaimah on a relaxing beach holiday, an active golf break or an exciting multi centre holiday combining stunning beaches with the Arabian Desert - they are the perfect people to ask.
