Ras Al Khaimah Unveils 'More Than Just A Vacation'

Did you know? RAK Tourism Development Authority has recently initiated a new marketing campaign, 'Not a Vacation,' directed by Mark Middlewick. The film challenges traditional and local travel narratives and showcases the emirate's unique blend of nature, adventure, and cultural heritage. The campaign aims to position RAK as a top 2025 destination appealing to travellers seeking off-the-beaten-path experiences.

RAK Tourism Development Authority has launched its new destination marketing film, 'Not a vacation… Our Vacation.' The portrayal of creativity and RAK's distinct appeal, directed by acclaimed and popular filmmaker Mark Middlewick, aims to capture global audiences and position RAK as a top destination for 2025. Produced by Goldmine and creativity directed by Impact BBDO, the film breaks away from traditional travel narratives. It showcases the extraordinary contacts that make RAK stand out, inviting travellers to venture beyond the usual and discover hidden gems, rich ordinary with the unusual; the film highlights the emirate's blend of nature, adventure, and history all while challenging conventional perceptions of what makes a destination worth visiting.

Alka Winter, Vice President of destination marketing and Communications at RAKTDA, explained, "Ras Al Khaimah is not just another vacation spot. It is a destination that provides something unique. With this campaign, we wanted to avoid the typical tourism marketing approach and embrace a more fun, authentic, and engaging narrative. We welcome travellers to experience a destination where the unexpected becomes unforgettable."

As in Expedia's Unpack 25 report, it's given that the campaign taps into emerging travel trends, thus highlighting the growing desire for distinctive off-the-beaten-path destinations. Ras Al Khaimah fits this trend perfectly, offering authenticity and outdoor adventures, all of which appeal to the modern traveller. According to the report, 63 per cent of global travellers are increasingly seeking destinations that offer a refreshing alternative to overcrowded tourist hubs.

Commenting on the campaign, Martino Caliendo, Creative Director at Impact BBDO, said, "We wanted to push the boundaries of traditional destination marketing using humour and contrast to highlight the unique RAK Effect. This is the beginning of a collaboration that will take RAK's tourism messaging to new heights."

Building on its record-breaking tourism performance in 2024, RAK thrives, inviting 1.28 million overnight visitors. The film Not a Vacation… Our Vacation aims to cement the emirate's status as the region's fastest-growing tourism destination, attracting those seeking authentic and unforgettable travel experiences.
