Tours to Middle East
Middle East
Shed new light on a region steeped in history, culture and natural beauty while uncovering some seriously epic world wonders with Flight Centre’s range of Middle East tour packages. Whether you’re hoping to be immersed in the spiritual heart of the region with Israel Holy Land pilgrimages, want to spike your adrenaline on a Dubai desert safari, or would prefer to experience the fusion of East and West with an Istanbul city break, we’re bound to have the right tour for you.
If you’re on a mission to tick some world wonders off your list, then prepare to experience the grandeur of ancient Egypt with the Cairo Pyramids and Nile cruises. Alternatively, marvel at the futuristic skyline and visit the magnificent Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque with Abu Dhabi modern architecture tours.
History buffs are invited to travel back in time with Petra Jordan historical tours, snapping pictures of the ancient city’s rock-cut architecture. Then, explore the vibrant city of Beirut and ancient ruins of Baalbek with Lebanon cultural heritage trips.
Venture into the vast sands and discover the majestic Empty Quarter and Al-Ula with Saudi Arabia desert expeditions. Alternatively, swap the desert for the sea with Oman coastal adventures and explore pristine beaches, rugged cliffs, and vibrant marine life along the beautiful Omani coastline.
Finally, if you’re in desperate need of a break from reality, we highly recommend a Dead Sea relaxation retreat. Spend your days floating in the mineral-rich waters, soaking up therapeutic mud treatments and unwinding in luxurious spa resorts.
