Luxury Middle East Holidays
TAILOR-MADE TRAVEL IN THE MIDDLE EAST
The Middle East is easier to travel well when you stop treating it as one kind of trip. Oman rewards time on the road between mountains, desert and coast. Jordan is compact enough to pair Petra with Wadi Rum without rushing. Turkey needs more room if Istanbul, the Aegean and inland landscapes are all part of the plan. Saudi Arabia, the UAE and Lebanon each call for a different balance of heritage, city life, food and downtime.
Our tailor-made Middle East journeys are built around season, distance, guiding, hotel choice and how much ground is actually worth covering. The aim is not to fit more in, but to make each stop justify the time it takes to reach it.

WHAT TO SEE AND DO IN THE MIDDLE EAST
WHEN ACCESS CHANGES THE EXPERIENCE
In the Middle East, the difference is often not what you see, but how you see it. A private guide can change the way Petra or Istanbul unfolds. In Oman, a dhow in Musandam or a carefully timed drive through the mountains can make the journey feel entirely different from a standard itinerary. In Saudi Arabia, good guiding and the right pacing matter just as much as the site itself.
We look for the moments where privacy, timing or local knowledge genuinely improve the experience, rather than adding access for the sake of it.

COMBINING COUNTRIES ACROSS THE REGION
The Middle East can work particularly well as a multi-country journey, but only when the route is worth the extra movement. Oman and Jordan offer a strong contrast between mountains, desert and archaeology. Turkey and Lebanon bring food, cities and history into a different rhythm, while Saudi Arabia and the UAE can work well together when contemporary stays and heritage are both part of the plan.
We consider flight times, season, entry requirements and how much time each stop deserves before suggesting a combination. Fewer countries with better pacing is often the stronger journey.

EXPERIENCES WORTH MAKING TIME FOR
A few experiences that can change the pace, route or character of a journey through the Middle East.
SAIL MUSANDAM BY PRIVATE DHOW
OMAN
Spend the day between Musandam’s cliffs and sheltered bays, with the route shaped around sea conditions, swimming stops and how quietly you want to travel.
PETRA BEYOND THE MAIN TRAIL
JORDAN
Walk Petra with a private guide who can adjust the route, timing and level of walking around your interests rather than following the standard crowd flow.
ISTANBUL BY FOOD, FERRY & FOOT
TURKEY
Move between neighbourhoods by ferry and on foot, using food markets, restaurants and local streets to understand the city beyond its headline monuments.
BEIRUT THROUGH ITS TABLES
LEBANON
Spend a day moving between bakeries, neighbourhood restaurants and carefully chosen stops where food says more about Beirut than a conventional city tour can.
