Day 1: Dhow Cruise and Dinner
On the evening of the first day, board a traditional Arab dhow and sample some of the local specialities like coffee, dates, fresh fruit juice, and dry fruits. The wooden dhow will sail serenely as you enjoy an international buffet and soak in the impressively lit city from the waters.
Day 2: Dubai City Tour + Desert Safari
Owing to the fact that it is impossible to visit all of Dubai’s attractions in a single day, you will be taken on a 4-hour whirlwind bus tour of the city that covers a majority of the city’s most sought after tourist destinations. You will see the Burj Al Arab, the magnificent Jumeirah Mosque, the exterior of the gigantic Dubai Mall, the sumptuous King’s Palace, the AquaVentura Waterpark, and the Burj Khalifa.
Retreat to the vast expanse of sand on the outskirts of the bustling city shortly after lunch. Mount your 4x4 desert vehicle and tear through the towering sand dunes. Retire to a traditional Bedouin camp as the sun sinks below the horizon. Here, you will experience the simple pleasure of henna painting, camel riding, sandboarding, and shisha smoking. Fire shows, belly dances, and Tanoura dances will follow as you relish a delectable meal.
Day 3: Tour of the Dubai Aquarium and Dubai Frame
Bask in the sheer wonder of 400+ aquatic creatures in Dubai’s Underwater Zoo located inside the Dubai Mall. The tube way that runs right through the aquarium provides a 270-degree view of this amazing artificial saline habitat.
Widely regarded as the ‘biggest picture frame on Earth’, the Dubai Frame stands as a testament to the city’s journey from a barren desert to the cosmopolitan paradise it is today. A symphony in glass, steel, concrete, and aluminium, looking through this rectangular structure gives you a framed view of the entire city! This is the perfect way to end your tour.

Important Information
- Keep in mind that it is considered proper etiquette in Dubai to tip for certain services (porters, room cleaners, valets, taxi drivers, and at restaurants).
- The UAE dress code is more relaxed than other areas in the Middle East, but most of Dubai’s residents dress conservatively. Ensure your clothing is tasteful and not too revealing or see-through.
- During Ramadan (roughly between mid-May and mid-June) the city shuts down during the day (restaurants stay closed and it is illegal to smoke, drink and eat in public during this holy timespan). However, the city sparks back to life in the evening.
Best Time to Travel to Dubai
The cooler months of December, January, and February extend a pleasant Mediterranean climate, making it the ideal time to visit Dubai. However, this is the peak tourist season, so rates skyrocket around this time. The city boils from March to September, but the rates fall significantly (as much as 75%). If you don’t mind hopping between air-conditioned hotels, restaurants, and shopping malls, there’s no wrong time to visit Dubai.
