Full description

Start your full-day tour with a quick view of Dubai Creek before exploring the heritage area of Bastakaya with its Arabian wind towers. Visit the historic Dubai museum, located in the 225-year-old Al Fahidi Fort and learn about the art, ancient history, culture, and lifestyle of the Arabs.

Cross from Bur Dubai to Deira Dubai by traditional water taxi, or abra and then take a walk through the spice and gold souks to marvel at the variety of goods on offer.

You’ll then continue on to the Jumeirah Mosque and Burj Al Arab, the world’s most luxurious hotel, known for its distinctive silhouette resembling a billowing sail. Enjoy some free time for tea or coffee at Madinat Jumeirah Souk, an authentic re-creation of an ancient marketplace with traditional Middle Eastern style and ambiance.

After a break, head to the crescent-shaped man-made Palm Jumeirah Island and stop in front of Atlantis The Palm Hotel, which is the centerpiece of Palm Jumeirah. Palm Jumeirah is the most scenic artificial man-made island on earth and boasts facilities such as world-class accommodation, private villas, residential apartments, beaches, water sports activities and restaurants. Next, visit the Dubai Aquarium.

Experience the unique beauty of Dubai from the Dubai Marina Walk, called by many a small Manhattan due to the many skyscrapers. You’ll find lots of restaurants serving a variety of foods in front of the Marina Canal, where boat, yacht and dhow rides are available.

Enjoy a drive along Sheik Zayed Road, lined with more skyscrapers and stop at the Dubai Mall to experience the fine dining and shopping on offer and enter Burj Khalifa, a magnificent steel structure rising 828 meters and the tallest building in the world.
