MIDDLE EAST

This region of the world is responsible for some of my happiest and most treasured memories. Sadly, conflict and volatility make some of it out of bounds or put off many travellers.

But if and when you are able to visit the Middle East, you’ll find a region rich in history and inhabited by welcoming people. Many people like Dubai, which gives you a taste of the region, or a leisurely cruise on the Nile will introduce you to one of the world’s most ancient civilisations.
