Day 2 Dubai

Old Dubai, Gold Souk & Vintage Desert Safari
After breakfast at your hotel, you meet your private guide-driver and set off on a 4-hour Old Dubai City Tour to discover the historical highlights of this vibrant emirate. During the tour, you stop at the gorgeous Shindagha museum. Set along the historic waters of Dubai Creek, Al Shindagha Museum tells the proud story of the nation's past and reverent traditions. It's a place that you can't imagine, you can learn and see about UAE history and culture in one place with high technology. Following some walking down Dubai Creek, you proceed towards 3A Street to the Bur Dubai Abra Station. This waterway continues to reflect Dubai's historic roots, back when early settlers relied on its waters for their livelihood. Enjoy a short trip across the Creek to Deira on traditional wooden boats, known as abras. 

A short, breezy ride later, and you’re on the other side of Dubai Creek. Now cross Baniyas Road and follow Old Al Baladiya Street for one kilometer before turning right into the original Gold Souk district, where all that glitters is definitely gold. After that, you will have an opportunity to visit the Perfume Souk and enjoy the fragrance. The next stop is the Spice Souk. The souk is easy to find - just turn right onto Baniyas Road and follow the aroma of cardamon, turmeric, dried lemons, and rose petals. Then you visit Dubai's Textile Souk to see a huge and rich collection of luxurious fabrics and high-end textiles, which suit all tastes.   

We also planned a very unusual lunch, which is organized by the government of Dubai. You will not only try local cuisine and flavors but will also have a discussion with locals about the tradition and culture of the Emirates. Please note, lunch meetings are arranged at a set time, and are for a small group of people. 

After lunch, we embark on the most awarded desert safari in Dubai. Ideal for the whole family as this educational, yet fun desert safari is unique from others. Be a part of history and experience the desert like never before. Your professional Conservation Guide will take you on a nature safari through the Dubai Desert Conservation Drive while telling you all about the desert fauna and flora and how the Bedouin used to survive. Take in a magnificent Arabian sunset while watching a spectacular falconry performance  After the tour we take you back to your hotel.

Day 6 Abu Dhabi

Louvre Abu Dhabi Tour & Lunch in a local restaurant
After breakfast at your hotel, you meet your private driver, who takes you to the Louvre Abu Dhabi, the first universal museum in the Arab world, which was created based on an intergovernmental agreement signed on March 6, 2007, between the United Arab Emirates and France.

The appearance of the structure itself is quite extraordinary, but it reflects the vision and achievements of the whole nation. Built-in 2017, the museum is designed in light colors and has a huge silver floating dome with geometrical ornaments, so when the sun passes above, the light, filtering through the perforations in the dome, creates an inspiring play of light and shadows inside the building.

After your visit to Louvre, you proceed to the Emirates palace (outside) and make a photo stop. Emirates Palace is one of the most remarkable buildings in Abu Dhabi when it comes to architecture. Enjoy your photo stop at Qasr Al Watan. It is the presidential palace of the United Arab Emirates, located in Abu Dhabi.

After such a great experience you have lunch in a local restaurant. 

Your driver takes you back to the hotel.
