1. Travellers from the Gulf usually have a huge family. The economical way to stay is to book an apartment with a kitchen facility. Or, depending on the client’s budget, hotels close to a Halal restaurant can also be a good option.
2. If a client would like to discover London then I would recommend purchasing a visitor’s Oyster card which can be bought online at www.visitbritainshop.com. This can be used as per the travellers needs on the Underground trains, trams and buses. If the client likes driving then I suggest a car rental would be the best option to venture out of England into other countries such as Wales or Scotland.
3. Scotland could be a new tourist spot for summer adventures as it caters to many activities from sailing to golfing or mountain biking to just walking along the great trails.
4. Arabs immediately think of shopping when they think of the UK. I recommend Central London particularly Knightsbridge for the famous Harrods, or easily accessible by underground are Bond Street and Oxford Street.
5. Activity-seeking travellers should head to Northern Ireland to the Cairngorms and Aviemore where you can find activities year-round such as climbing, cycling and walking.
