About this experience
We will explore all the best of modern Dubai. You will ride along the "little Manhattan" - the main road of the metropolis with a dozen skyscrapers, be impressed by the sheikhs' residences and luxury hotels. You will explore an artificial island and learn about its phenomenon. Also, you will take photos with pink flamingos and peacocks and visit the base of the Burj Khalifa.
What to Expect
Postcard Sights
You will see Dubai's landmark - the 7-star Burj Al Arab hotel and learn why it became a symbol of the city. We will definitely make a photo stop here. We will visit Dubai Venice, where we will stroll through the "old" market and the Madinat waterfront. There, in one of the hotels, you will see the golden horses - exact replicas of stallions from the stable of the reigning President of Dubai.
8th Wonder of the World
We will then drive through the man-made Palm Jumeirah island: I will tell you why the idea of building an island in the sea emerged and whether the goal was to get into the Guinness Book of Records. The driver will make a stop at a place with a view of Dubai Marina - the new district that is being built around an artificial canal. The view promises to be impressive! On Palm Jumeirah, we will also make a short pause for a walk around the Atlantis Hotel - also known as one of the symbols of modern Dubai.
Inhabitants of the "Jungles" and Dubai Mall
After getting acquainted with the inanimate side of the city, you will head to the bird sanctuary. The corner of living nature, where hundreds of birds from cold countries gather for the winter, is located in the very heart of the ultra-modern city. The main stars of the park are the pink flamingos! We will continue the bird theme in the Palace of the Ruler of the Emirate of Dubai: beautiful peacocks live in the sheikh's residence, and if we are lucky, we will see how they are fed.
The final stage will be a trip to Dubai Mall - the largest shopping center in the world with an area of over 1.2 million sq. m. If you want, we will go inside, but there is also plenty to see outside - waterfalls with the romantic name "Pearl Divers" and fountains at the base of the tallest building in the world - Burj Khalifa.
