Flight time
The flight from Auckland to United Arab Emirates takes roughly 17 hours nonstop.
The seven United Arab Emirates seem to hold every experience you can imagine – and a few you’d never expect.
Wander through Dubai’s glittering souks and mega malls, explore Al Ain’s historic forts and desert oases, or lose yourself in the maze-like streets of old Sharjah – a UNESCO Cultural Capital. Marvel at the grandeur of Abu Dhabi’s Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, or head out on a 4WD safari across the golden dunes of the Empty Quarter.
Hike the mystical Hajar Mountains, kayak through Ajman’s mangroves, or stretch out on the white sands of Ras Al Khaimah. Prefer the coast? The serenity of Fujairah is pure magic.
Food lovers, get ready – from luxurious Emirati feasts to iconic street eats like shawarma, falafel and sweet luqaimat dumplings, you’ll be eating well all day (and night).
Whether you’re scaling the Burj Khalifa or star-gazing in the desert, every day in the UAE is a collision of adventure, culture and incredible flavour.

Travel has always played a big role in my life, and I’ve been fortunate enough to explore 20 countries across the Pacific, Europe, Asia, and the USA. Along the way, I’ve also had the incredible experience of living and working overseas through Camp America and the Disney Cultural Exchange Program at Walt Disney World.
I love discovering new places, embracing new experiences, and hearing about the destinations that inspire other people. With a strong background in sales and customer service, I enjoy getting to know each client, understanding what excites them most about travel, and helping turn those ideas into unforgettable journeys.
Whether you’re planning your very first big adventure or already dreaming about your next escape, I’m here to make the whole process easy, personal, and exciting.
I’d love to help you plan your next trip!
