Day by day

What happens, and when

  1. Day 1 Land, and the rest of the day is yours Private transfer from the airport
    • Arrival and check-in Met at Dubai International and driven to the hotel. Nothing scheduled afterwards — most flights from India land early and the day is better spent adjusting than touring.

    Night in Dubai.

  2. Day 2 City in the morning, desert in the evening Seat-in-coach for both
    • Dubai city tour Jumeirah Mosque, the Burj Al Arab from the outside, Palm Jumeirah and the Marina.
    • Desert safari Dune bashing, a camel ride, sandboarding and entertainment at a traditional camp.

    Night in Dubai.

  3. Day 3 Desert safari with the barbecue Afternoon pickup, back late evening
    • The morning is free Nothing scheduled until the afternoon.
    • Into the dunes Dune bashing, camel riding and sandboarding, then a barbecue dinner at the camp with live entertainment.

    Night in Dubai.

  4. Day 4 A full day in Abu Dhabi About 90 minutes each way · seat-in-coach
    • Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque Eighty-two domes, the largest hand-knotted carpet in the world, and room for forty thousand worshippers. Dress code is enforced; abayas are lent at the door.
    • The Corniche and Emirates Palace Eight kilometres of waterfront, and a photo stop at the hotel that cost three billion dollars to build.

    Night in Dubai.

  5. Day 5 A full day free No transfers scheduled
    • Shopping, or whatever you like The Dubai Mall and the Mall of the Emirates are the obvious ones; the gold and spice souks in Deira are a short walk from the hotel and cost nothing to wander.

    Night in Dubai.

  6. Day 6 Dubai to the airport Private transfer
    • Breakfast, check out, and the transfer Dubai International wants three hours for an international departure, and the airport is genuinely enormous.

Before you book

What is shared

Airport transfers are private. The city tour, desert safari, dinner cruise and Abu Dhabi day are seat-in-coach — you share a vehicle with other guests and there is a pickup window rather than a pickup time. Private versions cost more; ask and we will quote.

Cancelling

Free up to 21 days before you arrive. Inside 21 days, and for a no-show, the full amount is charged. Payment falls due before the free-cancellation window closes.

Rooms and timings

Check-in is 2pm and check-out noon. Room type is confirmed at booking; tell us about bedding or an occasion then rather than at the desk.

Rates move

Dubai hotel rates are not held the way Sri Lankan ones are. The price on this page is honoured for the dates you book, but the supplier can reprice unsold dates without notice.

Rather talk it through first?

Book above if you are ready. If you would rather check something first — a different date, an extra night, a hotel you had in mind — tell us and we will put the exact price in writing before you pay anything.
