Dubai offers a diverse range of landscapes in a small space. The tourist has the opportunity to see everything in one day: rugged mountains, awe-inspiring dunes, sandy beaches, lush green parks; dusty villages, ancient homes with wind towers, luxurious residential areas, and colorful souks (markets).
As your City Tour guides you around Dubai’s historic landmarks, including a visit to the Burj Al Arabic, it provides a wonderful introduction. You will continue to Jumeirah where you’ll find the Jumeirah Mosque. To reach Al Fahidi Fort’s museum, continue on to Al Bastakiya. Continue on to Al Bastakiya, where you will cross the waterways with Abra (Water Taxi) and wander around the magnificent Spice and Gold Souk.
You can enjoy a quiet dinner onboard a traditional Arabic Dhow as it glides along Dubai’s creek, under starry skies. The architecture of Dubai Creek Golf and Yacht Club and the magnificent Chamber of Commerce Building, as well Sheikh Saeed’s House, where Sheikh Rashid was born, are all worth admiring.
Enjoy a wonderful evening in the desert exploring its finer points. You can go on a safari through the desert. The deepest trenches are low and the highest point of the dunes is high. You can ride a camel and see stunning henna patterns or wear traditional Arabic clothing. Watch the dancers and enjoy delicious barbecue while you smoke a shisha.
Don’t forget about shopping… Dubai’s best-known attraction is its amazing shopping. As always, the month-long Dubai Shopping Festival offers deep discounts on a wide range of essentials such as jewelery, fashion wear, electrical goods, and carpets. All of this set against a vibrant backdrop for cultural events.
