About this experience
In one day, you will explore the main attractions of Dubai. You will visit colorful markets and the old Bastakia quarter, as well as see the modern districts of the city, luxurious villas, and dizzying skyscrapers. I will share interesting facts about the country's development and tell you a lot of interesting things from its daily life.
What to Expect
Through the Sands to the Oasis City
On the way to Dubai, I will talk about the history and modern life of the Emirates, while you enjoy breathtaking desert panoramas. We will make a stop to capture them in photos. Upon arrival, we will take a walk along Al Seef Promenade: ride a traditional abra boat across the bay to the Deira area, where you can visit the famous Gold Souk. Then we will stroll through the old streets of Bastakia Quarter, where Dubai's development began.
Man-Made Island and Other Wonders
Through an underwater tunnel, we will head to Palm Jumeirah - I will tell you about this miracle island. Here you will admire the city from the Persian Gulf side, and in the new Dubai Marina district - skyscrapers. You will also take photos at 'The Frame' - a futuristic building of unusual shape (if you wish, we will go up to its viewing platform), and see the palace of the Dubai ruler, where peacocks roam. You will see the unique building of the Museum of the Future, the tallest observation wheel in the world, and learn how a tiny village has grown into a huge metropolis.
Canals, Waterfall, and Dancing Fountains
Dubai Venice is also part of our program: you will walk through the Eastern-style market, and from the balcony of the Mina A'Salam hotel, you will see the famous sail-shaped hotel. We will also visit 'Dubai Mall': you will be impressed by its huge aquarium and the 'Pearl Divers' waterfall. You will also admire the Burj Khalifa skyscraper - the tallest building in the world. And to end the evening, I suggest watching the grand show of dancing fountains!
