Hemsworth, who’s known best for playing Thor, expanded on how Abu Dhabi packs in everything you could want within minutes of each other. Family man that he is, he shared, “The adventures have left us with amazing memories that will last a lifetime. You can tell how special it was, since the kids didn’t want to leave.” We’ve travelled the world, but Abu Dhabi has captured our hearts, and we’re already planning for our next trip.”

Elsa, known for her role as police officer Elena Neves in the adrenaline-splashed Fast and the Furious franchise, had an interesting take on her part. “Whether it is for us as a couple or a family, every day here is a new adventure, there is something for each one of us to enjoy and discover. My kids have fallen in love with Abu Dhabi, as it gives them a playground for all the things they want to do”, she gushed. Sharing her thoughts on the UAE capital’s ever-expanding catalogue of innumerable experiences, she said, “Whether it’s theme parks with exciting rollercoasters, dune bashing and horse riding in the desert, or catching the best wave, Abu Dhabi has it all and is now our must-do holiday spot.”

Does this look familiar? That’s because Abu Dhabi really is growing in leaps and bounds as one of the world’s record-shattering travel destinations. While we’re diving head-first into the festive season, year-end also means work commitments, deadlines and the realisation that yet another year has elapsed. When you want to get away from it all and need the right destination that will refresh and recharge you, hop on a plane to the UAE capital to experience Abu Dhabi, and a lifestyle like you’ve never seen before.

And if you already live here, there’s just no place like home.
