SELF-GUIDED ADVENTURES IN THE MIDDLE EAST
A Self-Guided holiday is an amazingly liberating adventure. World Class Adventures can design trips to give you the very best experience in a region. You are your own guide, so you can explore at your own leisure. Chat to locals, linger over lunch, or set off an hour earlier to catch the coolest part of the day. Pause or press on, the choice is up to you: cherry-pick your stops along the way – you set the pace. We provide high-quality support through local suppliers, as well as 24-hour emergency support if required.
The Middle East is an epic destination - the cradle of civilisations and a beautiful, complicated region that's home to some of the planet's most hospitable people.
What we hear about the Middle East isn’t often positive, so it can be easy to forget how much there is to discover. It’s incredibly rich in ancient history: The Empires of Alexander the Great, Persia, and Rome have all left their marks on the region.
Yes, you’ll find some of the world’s greatest desert scenery here, but the area also boasts snow-capped, lush valleys, hip cities and world-class diving along the Red Sea and Arabian Sea coasts.
The Middle East has an amazing variety of destinations which are perfect for self-guided adventure!
World Class Adventures has access to the best tour operators and will tailor the perfect holiday just for you.
You are far more likely to be overwhelmed by welcome than worry. Arab hospitality is no myth, and sitting down and talking with Middle Eastern locals is one of the greatest reasons to visit the region. A sweet tea, a nargileh (water pipe) and a game of backgammon are never far away.
