Begin your exploration of Dubai at the iconic Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world. Take in the panoramic views of the city from the observation deck on the 124th floor. Afterwards, head to The Dubai Mall, one of the world's largest shopping centers, and enjoy some shopping, dining, or take a spin on the Olympic-sized Dubai Ice Rink.
Get ready for a day filled with color and culture! Visit the world's largest natural flower garden at the Dubai Miracle Garden, where over 45 million flowers bloom in vibrant patterns. Then, head over to the Global Village, an international carnival that showcases music, cuisine, and traditions from over 90 countries.
Explore some of Dubai's man-made wonders today. Start at The Palm Jumeirah, an artificial island shaped like a palm tree, and visit popular attractions like the Atlantis, Palm Jumeirah and Aquaventure Waterpark. Afterwards, head to Dubai Marina, the world's largest man-made marina, for a relaxing stroll along the waterfront.
Get a taste of Dubai's rich history and culture by visiting the Dubai Creek and Old Dubai. Take a traditional abra (boat) ride across the creek and explore the historic Al Fahidi District, which is home to the Dubai Museum and Jumeirah Mosque. Then, head to the bustling Spice and Gold Souks, where you can haggle for unique souvenirs and spices.
If you have more time, consider visiting the Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo at The Dubai Mall or taking a desert safari tour. For those with less time, skip Global Village or visit Old Dubai and the Spice and Gold Souks on Day 1 instead. Make sure to stay hydrated and dress appropriately for the hot weather!
