Day by Day
A detailed day-by-day plan for this 10-day journey.
Met privately at the airport and transferred to your 5-star deluxe hotel. Relax and enjoy a welcome dinner beneath the shimmering skyline.
Ascend the Burj Khalifa for a rooftop meal and the fountains at your feet, lunch downtown, then a private sunset yacht cruise along the Marina followed by dinner on the water.
A relaxed morning and lunch, then a premium desert safari with dune drives, camel rides and falconry, ending with live shows and a lavish barbecue dinner under the stars.
A private guided morning through Al Fahidi, the souks and an abra ride across the Creek, lunch by the water, then the Palm and The View at sunset with dinner at a Palm restaurant.
A full day at Atlantis Aquaventure and the Lost Chambers Aquarium, with lunch at the park and dinner near your hotel.

A morning at the Louvre Abu Dhabi beneath its floating dome, lunch by the sea, and a relaxed afternoon along the Corniche with dinner at a fine local table.
