The Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region is witnessing a major shift in luxury tourism. Wego, the leading online travel marketplace in MENA, has partnered with Waves, a platform specializing in yacht and chalet rentals. This collaboration aims to make premium yacht experiences more accessible in key destinations like Dubai, Kuwait, Jeddah, and Qatar.
The partnership reflects the growing demand for exclusive travel experiences. By integrating Waves into Wego’s platform, travelers can now easily book luxury yacht trips. This move is set to redefine high-end tourism in the region.

The collaboration offers a range of benefits for luxury seekers:
Short Getaways: Trips lasting two to six hours for private yacht experiences.
Customized Voyages: Tailored trips for families, corporate events, or celebrations.

This partnership simplifies the process of booking luxury yacht services, setting a new standard in the industry.
Waves’ Regional Expansion
Waves began in Kuwait and expanded to Qatar during the FIFA World Cup. It has since entered Saudi Arabia and Dubai, two of the world’s fastest-growing luxury tourism markets.
AbdulRahman AlSaadoon, CEO of Waves, stated that the partnership with Wego aligns with their mission to bridge land and sea experiences.
Impact on Global Tourism
The collaboration highlights a broader trend in luxury travel:
Marine Tourism Growth: Increased interest in yacht travel will boost maritime tourism revenue in MENA.

Mamoun Hmidan, Wego’s Chief Business Officer, emphasized that this partnership enhances their goal of providing hassle-free, high-quality travel options.
The Future of Luxury Travel
