& DINNER CRUISE) (B/D)
After a delicious breakfast at the hotel, the group will be

Jumeirah, where we will have another photo stop opposite the luxurious Atlantis
the Palm Hotel. Our tour
continues with a drive to the old part of Dubai and a walking tour in the Bastakiah area, a step back in time to one of the oldest traditional Emirati neighborhoods set in Bur Dubai. Our Voyage! continues to the entrance of the Dubai Museum,
which depicts the traditional and developmental history of Dubai. After the
museum, the group will head to the Abra Station to board a water taxi to the
Spice Souk.
Our Voyage! doesn't stop there. Next we will head to the Dubai Mall and visit the world’s tallest tower, the breathtaking Burj Khalifa. You will have free time at the Dubai Mall to shop 'til you drop. At 4:00 pm, we'll board our private coach back to the hotel for some leisure time. Enjoy it, because we're not done yet.
At 7:00 pm, we'll leave the hotel and head to the Dubai Marina for a Dhow Dinner Cruise. During this two-hour cruise, we will view the fascinating skyline and scenery of New Dubai. The Dhow Dinner Cruise will include a gourmet 5-star international buffet dinner. Sit back and enjoy the atmospheric soundtrack of Arabic and English music to set the tone. At 10:30pm, we will be driven back to hotel.
Day 4 - DUBAI (DESERT SAFARI) (B, D)
Today, we begin with breakfast. Afterwards, the rest of the morning is yours to enjoy at your leisure. Our next Voyage! begins at 3:30 pm when we board our six-passenger 4x4 Land Cruisers and head out to the desert. At the entrance of the desert, our drivers will deflate the tires of the 4x4's. That's when the fun starts!! Feel the thrill of desert driving as our professional drivers take us up and down on golden dunes. A beautiful desert
sunset stop is also included, as well as a drive to a Bedouin Camp. Our hosts will greet us with a traditional cup of Arabic coffee. Here, you will have the opportunity to ride a camel (at your own expense). Later, a tantalizing BBQ dinner will be served. The evening won't be complete without witnessing the Tanura dance and a belly dancer, who will
enchant us with her rhythmic moves--a truly magical night! At 8:30 pm, we will return to
hotel.
Day 5 - DUBAI (ABU DHABI
TOUR) (B)
Our day begins with another delicious breakfast at the hotel. At 9:00 am, we will board our air conditioned coach for a two-hour ride to Abu Dhabi. The first stop of our guided tour will be to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, which is
considered as the most architectural treasure of contemporary UAE society - and one
of the Largest in the world. Next, we will drive through Corniche Road with a
photo stop at the breakwater and the iconic hotel of Abu Dhabi Emirates Palace. We’ll experience different aspects
of desert life attractively displayed in the open-air museum, along with
workshops, where craftsmen demonstrate traditional skills and women sit weaving
and spinning.
The day is not over just yet. After lunch on your own, we will visit the Qasr Al Watan Palace. Qasr Al Watan is an incredible, new and unique landmark in the United Arab Emirates. A Palace brimming with knowledge, offering the world a first-of-its-kind insight into the Arab heritage and the governing principles that shaped the history of the United Arab Emirates and its vision to the future.
