- A desert safari with dunes and dinner at camp
- The Creek by abra and the souks of Deira
- A dhow cruise in Dubai Marina
- Abu Dhabi and the Grand Mosque on a day trip
Practical tips
- Religious sites require clothes that cover shoulders and legs.
- In summer the middle of the day is very hot: plan trips for the morning or evening.
- For the desert choose operators with 4x4s and experienced drivers.
When to go
