Day 01: Arrival in Dubai:

Upon your arrival at Dubai Airport, you will be greeted and transferred to your hotel for check-in and accommodation.

Day 02: Exploring Dubai:

After a buffet breakfast, embark on an exciting half-day tour of classic Dubai, offering you a glimpse into the city's rich history. The journey begins with a visit to the Bastakia area, where you can admire the historic merchant houses, galleries, restaurants, and cafes. You'll then enjoy a panoramic view of the Dubai Museum, which takes the form of a fortress (please note that the museum is closed). Next, board an "Abra" (river taxi) to experience the atmospheric feel of the other side of the creek. The tour continues to the exotic and aromatic Spice Souk and the world-famous Gold Souk, where you can haggle for treasures. The tour concludes with a return to your hotel.

In the afternoon (optional), between 3:30 PM and 4:00 PM, you will be picked up from your hotel for a thrilling desert safari adventure. You'll ride in luxurious 4x4 vehicles (each accommodating up to 6 people) that will take you on a personal encounter with a different world—the desert. Experience the excitement of traversing sand dunes, passing by camel farms, and witnessing the magical sunset over Arabia. You'll also have the opportunity to try sandboarding. Finally, you'll arrive at a traditional Arabian camp, where you can ride camels, smoke aromatic Shisha (water pipes), get henna tattoos, or simply admire the feast under the moonlight while enjoying an Arabic barbecue buffet with fresh salads and grilled meats, including chicken and lamb, followed by delicious fruits for dessert. While you dine, you'll be entertained by an Arabic folkloric show featuring a Belly Dance performer (please note that during Ramadan, dancing is not permitted). After dinner, you'll return to your hotel for accommodation.

Day 03: Shopping and Modern Dubai:

Following a delightful buffet breakfast at the hotel, you'll have the morning free for shopping in Dubai, known as the city of shopping. Dubai is renowned for its wide range of top-notch stores, and it hosts the annual Dubai Shopping Festival, which lasts for a month. Here, high-end fashion designer boutiques coexist with vibrant street markets where you can practice your bargaining skills. You can find a variety of items, including electronics, gold, fabrics, and more.

In the afternoon, you'll have the option to embark on a tour of modern Dubai, granting you the opportunity to explore the most developed city on the planet, often referred to as the city of tomorrow.

Here, you'll see models of astonishing projects with detailed explanations and presentations. You'll have the chance to view prototype homes and gain insights into the exciting future of commerce and business in the emirate. The tour will then take you to the Burj Khalifa area, the world's tallest tower at 828 meters.
