Arrive at Dubai International Airport and transfer to your hotel. After check-in and a brief rest, explore Old Dubai to get an authentic feel for the city's heritage. Walk through the Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood (Al Bastakiya), visit the Dubai Museum for historical context, and take an Abra ride across Dubai Creek to the bustling Gold & Spice Souks. Evening at leisure with optional dhow-cruise dinner (payable locally).
Important: Airport transfer times depend on flight arrival; standard check-in is after 1400 hrs.
Modern Dubai: Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall & Fountain
Discover modern Dubai with a visit to the Burj Khalifa. Enjoy the At The Top observation deck (standard entry) for sweeping city views. Explore Dubai Mall — visit the Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo (optional) and shop or dine. End the evening watching the spectacular Dubai Fountain show outside the mall. Later, transfer to Dubai Marina for a stroll and a scenic ride on the Dubai Tram, connecting Marina Walk and JBR.
Tip: Pre-book Burj Khalifa time slots and Dubai Aquarium tickets to avoid queues.
Relaxed Morning & Afternoon Desert Safari with BBQ
Spend a relaxed morning exploring local markets or enjoying hotel amenities. In the afternoon, depart for the classic Desert Safari — includes dune bashing in a 4x4, photo stops at red dunes, optional camel ride, and a stunning desert sunset photo opportunity. The evening concludes at a desert camp with a traditional BBQ dinner, live entertainment (belly dance, tanoura show) and starry-sky ambience before return to your hotel.
Note: Desert activities are subject to weather; wear comfortable clothes and carry sun protection. The safari typically lasts ~6 hours (late afternoon to night).
