8 days in Dubai Itinerary

Take a holiday in Dubai to experience a mix of excitement, entertainment, and relaxation.

Explore the numerous day-trip ideas around Dubai: Abu Dhabi (Sheikh Zayed Mosque, Emirates Palace, & more) and Al Ain (Al Jahili Fort & Al Ain Oasis). Plan for a day of cool, family-friendly fun on the 18th (Wed) at Aquaventure Waterpark. Spend the 15th (Sun) exploring nature at Dubai Desert Conservation Reserve. There's still lots to do: enjoy breathtaking views from Burj Khalifa, admire the local landmark of Dubai Fountains, don't miss a visit to Jumeirah Mosque, and take an in-depth tour of Al Fahidi Fort.
