FEATURED New Ports of Call
KHASAB, OMAN
This lovely port of call is peppered with fishing boats,
wooden dhows and an appeal all its own. Discover
the historic Khasab Fort and Kmazera Castle and

hand in local restaurants.
DOHA, QATAR
The modern and innovative architecture and
engineering in Doha continues to enhance its already
impressive skyline, while the deep heritage, captivating
art and longstanding traditions ground this city
in the local cultures.
SIR BANI YAS, UNITED ARAB EMIRATES
This once barren island is a testament to the impact of
combining a passion for conservation and the power of
wealth. The Arabian Wildlife Park — founded by Sheikh
Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan — is the highlight, with
African and Arabian fauna like cheetahs and oryx
roaming freely.
See these new ports on the voyage, Exotic and Iconic,
