Ras Al Khaimah Tourism Development Authority (RAKTDA) has announced the emirate’s acceptance into two of the world’s most exclusive luxury travel networks — Virtuoso and Serandipians by Traveller Made. This dual recognition positions Ras Al Khaimah among the globe’s top destinations for high-end travellers seeking exceptional experiences and world-class hospitality.
Membership in Virtuoso and Serandipians is highly selective, by invitation only, and extended exclusively to destinations, hotels, and travel experts that meet the highest standards of luxury, authenticity, sustainability, and service quality. With this admission, Ras Al Khaimah joins a select group of international luxury destinations including Santorini, Kyoto, the Amalfi Coast, and the Serengeti.
As a preferred destination in these networks, Ras Al Khaimah will gain access to influential travel advisors and luxury providers shaping tailor-made journeys worldwide. The emirate’s selection reflects not only its high-end hospitality but also its cultural depth and clear roadmap for growth, with new luxury developments on the horizon.
“Becoming part of Virtuoso and Serandipians marks a pivotal moment for Ras Al Khaimah. These partnerships will showcase the emirate’s exceptional blend of nature, culture, and hospitality to a global audience who value authenticity, exclusivity, and meaningful experiences,” said Iyad Rasbey, Vice President – Destination Tourism Development, RAKTDA.
Ras Al Khaimah is known for its luxury resorts and unique experiences, from iconic properties like Waldorf Astoria and The Ritz-Carlton to new additions such as Anantara Mina Al Arab and Sofitel Al Hamra Beach Resort, with future openings from Wynn Resorts, Four Seasons, and Nobu Hotels. Signature experiences include the world’s longest zipline on Jebel Jais, sunrise hot-air balloon rides, desert stargazing, and cultural tours at the Suwaidi Pearl farm, offering visitors a blend of adventure, relaxation, and heritage.
This dual network acceptance underscores Ras Al Khaimah’s growing prominence as a must-visit destination for discerning luxury travellers.
