About this experience
Dubai is the largest city in the UAE with plenty of remarkable places. To piece them all together, we suggest embarking on a one-day journey with us to comfortably see all the best. We will visit the old town of Bastakiya, the Palm Island, the upscale Dubai Marina district with yachts, the world's largest Ferris wheel, Burj Khalifa, and other locations.
What to Expect
Bastakiya. First, we will explore what Dubai was like decades ago. We will visit the Old Town - a restored area where you will feel the Arabian atmosphere. A guide will share interesting facts from history, and you will be treated to delicious coffee at the Sheikh's House. If desired, we will cross the river on boats and visit the gold and spice market.
Dubai Frame. This monumental structure seemingly divides the city into new and old parts. You can also ascend it and overlook the city from a height.
Jumeirah. We will visit the green residential area, where we will see the Madinat Jumeirah hotel resembling an Arabian fortress, the Al Kasr golden horse hotel, and take photos with the Burj Al Arab hotel in the background.
Palm Island. Up next is the huge man-made island (its size equals 800 football fields), where you can climb the Palm View observation tower. Here, you will not only enjoy the views but also learn how this wonder was built in just 5 years.
Dubai Marina. In this prestigious district, you will admire tall buildings and luxurious yachts.
Bluewaters Island. Another man-made marvel. Here you will find Ain Dubai - the world's largest Ferris wheel (not operational), a beautiful promenade, and an excellent beach.
Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa, Fountain Show. This is the culmination of our excursion. In the shopping center, you will see a 24-meter waterfall with pearl diver figures, a dinosaur skeleton, an aquarium. Then, if desired, we will ascend to the 124-125 floors of the tallest skyscraper in the world. And of course, we will enjoy the show with dancing and singing fountains.
If you wish, we can include the following locations in the route:
- Miracle Garden - a huge flower park with various compositions.
- Museum of the Future - one building is worth it! Inside, you will touch the newest technologies that the UAE is already implementing: by 2025, just imagine, flying cars will be in Dubai.
- And of course, if desired, we can stop for lunch!
