Not content with having the tallest building on Earth, the UAE is also home to another outstanding feat of human engineering: the world's longest zipline.
Measuring 2,830 meters, you could start singing Think by Aretha Franklin at the beginning of your Jebel Jais flight, and finish your sky-high soul performance before reaching the end of the line – all while flying at speeds of up to 150 km/h! Now that's freedom.
This is a true bucket list activity. At the top of the UAE's tallest mountain, Jebel Jais, you'll harness up with the help of professional staff, and zoom through the valleys with only the birds for company.
