You can while away your time on the sun-drenched beaches, staying in world class accommodation and shop for designer labels in the stylish shopping malls. Or head to the desert and experience a traditional Bedouin way of life among the rolling dunes and palm-fringed oases, and barter yourself a bargain in one of the traditional souks.
