The Experience

The tour starts with pickup from your hotel and moves through central Dubai as the city transitions to night. You'll see Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building, and watch the fountain show that runs at the base of it. The route takes you past Dubai Mall, the world's largest shopping center, and to Palm Jumeirah, the man-made island shaped like a palm tree, where you get time to step out and photograph it. Burj Al Arab, the seven-star hotel, is a photo stop viewed from outside.

The guide stops at several landmarks so you're not sitting in the vehicle for the full four hours. You'll visit Jumeirah Mosque, walk along The Walk at JBR, pass Atlantis at the Palm, and drive along Sheikh Zayed Road and Dubai Water Canal. Bottled water is included throughout. The evening timing works well if you're in Dubai for a business trip with free time after work, or if you have a flight layover and want to see the city instead of waiting at the airport.

Infants and small children can travel in a pram, stroller or specialized infant seat. The tour is designed for all fitness levels since most of the time is spent traveling between stops with photo breaks rather than long walks. Your English-speaking guide explains what you're seeing at each location.
