Embark on the ultimate journey of “unassuming luxury” with Royal Expression Travels, curated for those who seek to “live the life of your dreams”. Priced at an exclusive $19,577.00 per person, this elite 10-day odyssey takes you from the glittering skyscrapers of the United Arab Emirates to the luminous, “whiter-than-white” sands of the Maldives. Your adventure begins on a nonstop, world-class Emirates Airline flight to Dubai, a futuristic metropolis of “startling feats of engineering” like the Burj Khalifa and the Palm islands. You will reside at the Ritz-Carlton Dubai, a Mediterranean-style sanctuary on Jumeirah Beach offering an “enchanting blend of history and modern luxury” alongside world-class amenities and lush gardens.

For an “out of this world” experience in the desert, witness the “world’s first” flying with falcons from the basket of a gentle hot-air balloon as you soar over an endless expanse of golden dunes. Upon landing, you will be whisked away in a convoy of open-top 1950s Land Rovers to the Royal Family Retreat for a lavish desert breakfast. Your UAE exploration continues in Abu Dhabi, the “mecca of wealth,” where you will enjoy a private showing at the Louvre Abu Dhabi and explore the Al Ain Safari—the world’s largest man-made safari—to encounter cheetahs, giraffes, and the once-extinct Arabian Oryx.

The second half of your journey transcends the terrestrial as you depart for Male and board a scenic seaplane with “barefoot pilots” to reach the private Rangali Island. Here, you will experience the world’s first underwater hotel residence, THE MURAKA, where you can “sleep with the fish” in a fully integrated living space beneath the Indian Ocean. Indulge in “all-inclusive dining” at the Ithaa Undersea Restaurant, featuring panoramic coral garden views, or descend into the Maldives’ first underground wine cellar, home to 20,000 bottles of the world’s finest labels. From blue-light snorkeling among bioluminescent corals to swimming with Manta Rays and dolphin watching from a private yacht, every moment of this $19,577.00 package is designed to be the “holiday of a lifetime”.
