Tips

If you have extra days, consider adding a day trip to Abu Dhabi to visit the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and Louvre Abu Dhabi, or extend your stay at the Desert Safari camp for a sunrise experience. To shorten the itinerary, combine the Dubai Mall visit with the Burj Khalifa ticket (same ticket often includes mall access) and replace the private DAUZ yacht with a shorter creek boat ride.
