Day 1: Dubai
Accommodation: Al Maha, a Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa
On arrival at Dubai’s airport, you’ll be met by our representatives, who’ll drive you to your hotel in the Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve, on the outskirts of the Arabian Desert. Here, you can settle into your private villa and perhaps enjoy the sunset over the dunes from the hotel’s terrace bar.
Day 2: Dubai
Accommodation: Al Maha, a Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa
Speak with your private concierge and field guide about which activities you could do today to make the most of your time in the desert. You may want to try your hand at archery, take an exhilarating 4x4 drive out among the deep-orange dunes, or ride a horse through the palmed oasis.
Day 3: Dubai
Accommodation: Al Maha, a Luxury Collection Desert Resort & Spa
This morning you could take a guided walk around the reserve to learn about the flora and fauna that thrives in this arid environment. Wildlife you might see includes camels, gazelles and Arabian oryx, which were once thought to be extinct, but now roam the reserve in large herds. This evening, take a guided camel trek out to the crest of a dune to watch the sunset while sipping on Champagne and enjoying local snacks.
Day 4: Dubai
Accommodation: One&Only The Palm
Today you’ll be driven back through the city of Dubai and across to the Palm Jumeirah peninsula along the coast. Here, you’ll stay for four nights at the One&Only The Palm, a lavish resort with sparkling pools and its own private stretch of beach. Spend the rest of the day relaxing and choose from one of the resort’s handful of fine restaurants for dinner, taking in views over the city’s growing skyline.
Day 5: Dubai
Accommodation: One&Only The Palm
Wake up this morning and enjoy a mouth-watering breakfast alfresco. You could then relax on a daybed beside the pool, taking a dip to cool off in the sun-dappled water, or stretch out on the beach to the sound of gentle waves lapping the shore. You might also like to visit the Guerlain Spa for a pampering treatment that leaves you completely rejuvenated.
Day 6: Dubai
Accommodation: One&Only The Palm
Today you could venture into the city, perhaps taking a taxi or private vehicle to the historic side of Dubai, where skyscrapers are replaced with traditional low-rise stone buildings. Wander the souqs, laden with spices, textiles and gold, taste traditional Middle Eastern dishes that you won’t find on the menus of the city’s fine-dining restaurants, or take an evening dhow boat cruise along the tranquil Dubai Creek.
Day 7: Dubai
Accommodation: One&Only The Palm
You might like to rise early this morning to join a yoga session on the beach. Then, enjoy the final day of your trip however you please: you could try some water sports in the marina, soak up the sights of Downtown Dubai, where you could head to the Burj Khalifa’s exclusive 148th floor, or simply enjoy further relaxation within your resort’s opulent surroundings.
Day 8: Return home
You’ll be driven back to the airport today in time for your flight home.
Day 1: Night Cruise with Sea Breeze & Dinner
We start our trip to the United Arab Emirates in Dubai. This is also where we are based for the entire duration of our tour. It is from here we make daily excursions, which are packed with unique adventures and excitement. Today we pick you up from the airport and take you to your hotel. In the evening, we go on a traditional boat cruise inside the marina. Dinner is included on this evening’s cruise.
Day 2: Helicopter Ride, Nonstop Activities in the Desert & Belly Dancing
There is no better way for us to start this morning than with a flightseeing tour over Dubai. Afterwards, we head to the desert. There we go dune bashing, sand boarding, quad riding and camel riding as well as watch a belly dance show. Dinner is included on today’s tour.
Day 3: The Presidential Palace, a Dates Market, an Island & a Grand Mosque
Today we are making a daytrip to Abu Dhabi, specifically to Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, Yas Island, the city waterfront, Dates Market, Emirates Palace and the Presidential Palace. We are provided with a private and fully guided tour. We also have our own private driver.
Day 4: Warm Waters, Snorkeling & Lots of Arab Markets
Our morning begins with a drive to the town of Fujairah. From there, we go snorkeling in warm waters. We then return to Dubai and are provided with a private and fully guided city tour. Dubai’s greatest draws are its lavish hotels, exotic beaches and hard-to-beat shopping opportunities. This city is so young yet located in a region so old. Highlights for today in Dubai include Gold Souk, Perfume Souk, Spice Souk and Bur Dubai (a.k.a. Old Dubai).
Day 5: Exploring Dubai’s Most Famous Attractions
Best known for its white sands, clear waters and prestigious, innovative and world-renowned hotel resorts (think seven-star hotel), Dubai has rightfully been a mecca for tourists for several years now. To describe the city of Dubai with few words: one giant mall! True, Dubai is not generally known for its historical landmarks. Nonetheless, its modernistic attractions are both impressive and undeniably creative. These below are the highlights for today.
2. Dubai Mall
3. Burj Khalifa Skyscraper: The views from atop are great.
4. Souk Madinat
5. Ski Dubai: Here you can see an indoor ski resort. Note that skiing is not a part of today’s tour.
6. Dubai Miracle Garden
7. Global Village: This is a cultural, entertainment and shopping destination.
Day 6: Our Tour Ends This Morning
Transportation will be arranged for you to reach the airport in Dubai.
