A Perfect One-Day Dubai City Tour: Burj Khalifa, Palm Jumeirah and Old Souks
A Dubai city tour is a great way to see the modern and traditional sides of the city in a single day. With a private driver and a friendly guide, you can visit the top sights without worrying about traffic or parking.
Start with the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world, and take the lift up to an observation deck for sweeping views. Next, see the Dubai Mall and its famous fountain, then drive along Palm Jumeirah for views of the Atlantis hotel and the skyline.
“In one day you can go from the world's tallest tower to a traditional abra boat on Dubai Creek.”
Highlights Of The Day
- Burj Khalifa & Dubai Mall: Photos, shopping and the fountain show in the evening.
- Palm Jumeirah: Drive on the famous palm-shaped island with a photo stop near Atlantis.
- Old Dubai: Walk through the Al Fahidi historic district and ride an abra across Dubai Creek.
- Gold & Spice Souks: Shop for gold, spices, perfumes and souvenirs.
City tours can be combined with an evening desert safari for a full day of Dubai. Contact us for a custom plan.
