Key Filming Destinations
Egypt
Egypt is one of the most fascinating filming locations in Middle East. Besides its rich history, this country is also home to diverse wildlife, including hyenas, cobras, crocodiles, and cheetahs. If your project takes you to Egypt, our location scout will present you with many of its iconic locations, such as the pyramids or the mountains along the Red Sea. The ancient Egyptians worshipped more than 2,000 gods and goddesses, so there’s plenty of noteworthy information to learn and include in your content.
Jordan
Jordan is home to more than 100,000 archaeological sites. It’s also where you can find the lowest point in the world. If you need a production coordinator in the Middle East, Storytailors Arabia will help with location scouting and logistics in Jordan. Jordan features some of the most interesting filming locations in the Middle East, including areas with beautiful Roman architecture, one of the oldest cities in the world, and so on.
Lebanon
Lebanon is the third-smallest country in the Middle East. However, there is no shortage of scenic filming locations in Middle East. Our production fixer will take you to UNESCO World Heritage Sites like the Temple of Bacchus, or the magnificent Byblos, the oldest continuously inhabited city on the planet. Storytailors Arabia will ensure you can easily film in this country on the eastern shore of the Mediterranean Sea.
Syria
Our production fixer can also obtain the necessary permits for you to shoot materials in Syria. It’s one of the most intriguing filming locations in Middle East due to its sandy deserts and high mountains. It is home to Damascus, the oldest capital in the world and the city of Aleppo, an important UNESCO World Heritage Site. The latter has been heavily damaged during the country’s conflicts, but it’s set for revival and reconstruction, making for a good documentary subject.
Oman
Oman is one of the oldest independent states in the area. While location scouting in Middle East, Storytailors Arabia can also find amazing spots in Oman that suit your project. The country has one of the hottest climates in the World, so you must prepare before you reach these filming locations in Middle East. It also has four UNESCO World Heritage Sites where you can shoot impressive materials.
UAE: Dubai & Abu Dhabi
Abu Dhabi is the capital of the United Arab Emirates, while Dubai is the largest city in the Emirates. Due to their amazing city life, the two Emirates are the most popular among tourists. While location scouting, Storytailors Arabia can find some of the most authentic areas that fit your project. Our production coordinator in the Middle East will accompany you throughout the entire duration of the project so everything goes according to plan.
Kuwait
If you’re looking for exceptional filming locations in Middle East, you can’t go wrong with Kuwait. In a country where more than 70% of the population consists of expatriates and oil reserves are very rich, you will easily find some impressive spots to film. Our location scout will explore the 6th richest country in the Middle East and find those locations that are just perfect for your project.
Bahrain
While location scouting in Middle East, you will find out why Bahrain is the pearl of the region (pun intended). This archipelago is rich in culture and history, so it’s like an open-air film set. What makes it one of the top filming locations in the Middle East is its pearling history. This makes it the perfect spot for shooting documentaries on pearl farming and industry.
Iraq
Our production coordinator in the Middle East can help you shoot your project in one of the oldest civilizations in the world. It’s the place where a 3,400-year-old city was discovered following drought. Iraq is one of the most valued filming locations in Middle East because it’s home to the oldest writing in the world. It’s also a culinary paradise and while location scouting, you can learn more about Margat Bamia and other delicious dishes.
Qatar
When talking about filming locations in Middle East, we cannot ignore Qatar, the second-flattest country in the world. The emirate is independent and is located on the Persian Gulf coast.
