Plan a Trip to Sharjah

Sharjah is the third largest of the seven states which form the United Arab Emirates, and the only one to have land on both the Arabian Gulf Coast and the Gulf of Oman.

This unique holiday destination offers visitors an exciting and enjoyable experience full of Arabian hospitality, time-honoured traditions, sunny days and contrasting environments.  The green and picturesque city is a safe place to visit and is within easy reach of Europe and the Far East, being less than an eight-hour flight in either direction. Arabic is the official language although English is widely spoken.

Hotels in Sharjah provide a wide range of services and facilities to suit all categories of travellers and to suit all budgets. Nowadays, one can visit at anytime of the year with the best weather conditions from October to May, and plenty of shopping and indoor leisure facilities to enjoy during the hotter summer months, when value for money packages are on offer.

With its modern infrastructure and multi-lane highways, it is easy to visit neighbouring emirates and the east coast, either for just a day or for a longer stay. Choices of standard or tailor-made tours are available, or visitors can hire a car or explore by taxi.
