FIRST-CLASS | PRIVATE-GUIDED: Discover this most vibrant of cities, where the best cosmopolitan, avant-garde architecture and the highest standards of service blend harmoniously with the mystique and culture of Arabia.
There is much to see and do in Dubai although perhaps shopping malls and beaches are its major attractions. There is no lack of either. The downtown area has an amazing cluster of modern high rises including the world’s tallest building, the Burj Khalifa with an observation platform for breathtaking views. JumeirahBeach is probably the best known beach with many International chain hotels offering accommodation. Also worth seeing is the DubaiMuseum which relates the history and development of the city. Don’t for a second think there is nothing ancient here – try the Gold and Spice souks or walk in the old atmospheric neighbourhoods.
On arrival in Dubai, after checking into your hotel, take an afternoon drive in a 4WD vehicle for an exciting visit to the heart of the desert where later you will have dinner in the sand dunes.

In the afternoon, get to know Dubai with a visit to the magnificent Jumeirah Mosque, a dominant landmark, the old merchants’ houses in Bastakia, a historic area of the city and the 150 year old Al Fahidi Fort. Later take a trip on a boat called an Abra across Dubai Creek to the Spice and Gold Souks.
The following day is either departure or extend your time in Dubai.
