Full Day Dubai City Tour

Every kind of tourist has got something to watch out for in Dubai. The vibrant megapolis offers dune bashing, bungee jumping and other adventure sports facilities for adrenaline junkies; glistening beaches beside tranquil blue sea for those looking to relax; and city-sized shopping malls containing every global brand of repute for the shopaholics.

In fact, there’s a whole lot to see and do in Dubai. Even a week of extensive travel might not be sufficient to fully lap up the sights and sounds of Dubai. However, time is at a premium for many tourists and transit passengers. All you might have to spare is just a day. But don’t let that bother you. We will offer you a fantastic full-day trip of Dubai.

Trip Overview

Dubai is a fascinating mix of heritage and futuristic structures. And this trip will show you slices of both.

• Start by exploring the world-famous souks – traditional Arabian markets – of Dubai. Almost unchanged over the centuries, a trip to the souks is like traveling back in time. Showcasing the best of traditional architecture, handicraft, food items (like spices), precious jewelry (the Gold Souk), the souks will never cease to awe you. And they would, for sure, make you loosen your purse strings!

• Move on to Al Bastakiya – the cultural focal point of Dubai. The area is a wonderful mishmash of museums, art galleries, street art, and much more. Get to see the art works of reputed artists here – as well as the compositions of budding local artists who put up an excellent show. It’s a riot of colors all around.The Bastakiya region also is known for its souks. Buy authentic Arabian dates here, and maybe some exotic spices.

Another must-visit here is the Al Fahidi Fort. This place showcases the rich history of Dubai. The Dubai Museum, located in the fort, effectively the chequered past of modern Dubai and takes you on a journey of the growth of the emirate.

By now, you must be feeling a bit drained out. So, relax for a while at one of the many quaint cafes here and help yourself to some warm coffee and snacks.

• Recharged? Let’s resume our trip. It’s now time to head for the ultra-modern parts of Dubai. We would head out to Jumeirah – among the most posh and swankiest areas of the entire Gulf area. A whole range of jaw-dropping architectural marvels lie strewn here. On one hand, there is the splendid Atlantis, The Palm; and on the other, the Burj Al Arab – among the most identified global landmarks and a signature structure of the entire Middle East.

Time for some relaxation at the magnificent golden-hued Jumeirah beaches. Enjoy a pleasant swim in the placid waters of the sea here. Then, pay a visit to the Souk Madinat in the vicinity before moving on.

• And now, it’s time to indulge in something for which Dubai is famous the world over – shopping till you drop! You would drive by the stunning Mall of the Emirates – but we are headed for something bigger! Yes, you got that right. The trip would have a fitting close with a visit to the largest shopping mall in the world – the Dubai Mall.

• The eye-popping and massive Dubai Mall has almost every global luxury brand of repute under one roof. Even a window-shopping experience here is as fascinating as ever. Of course, you would indulge yourself to some actual shopping too!

Done with shopping? Our hands full of bags containing exotic clothes and other awesome stuff? Take a break and head for the dancing fountains on the mall premises. This is another not-to-be-missed experience. Visit the many other attractions here, before getting yourself clicked – with the sky-kissing Burj Khalifa looms large in the backdrop.

In a single day, get to see some of the most-visited attractions of Dubai. Let this trip be just a curtain raiser. Come back for more – and explore these attractions to your heart’s content.
