Overview
Experience historic sights and vibrant cosmopolitan life of Dubai on this half-day city tour, starting in the popular coastal neighbourhood of Jumeirah. Make a stop at the traditionally-recreated Souk Madinat Jumeirah for memorable holiday snapshots with the iconic Burj Al Arab hotel serving as your backdrop. The tour then continues to the manmade Palm Jumeirah island, an incredible architectural marvel offering a closer look at another landmark – the Atlantis, The Palm resort.
Journey along Jumeirah Beach, past the picturesque royal palace and serene residential hubs for a photo opportunity with the famed Jumeirah Mosque. Next, spot the Zabeel Palace, before heading over to Al Fahidi Historical Neighbourhood – the oldest district in Dubai. A brief visit to the ruling family’s former residence, Al Fahidi Fort, is followed by a short abra (water taxi) ride across the Dubai Creek.
Disembark at the Spice Souk, where the tantalising scents blend together. You'll also have a chance to partake in an unbeatable shopping spree in one of the most frequented city spots – the Gold Souk. Your journey ends in the heart of Downtown Dubai where you'll get to see Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building, up close.
