Downtown Dubai

Dubai Mall

The entrance to the Burj Khalifa's observation decks is inside Dubai Mall, and the Dubai Fountain plays on Burj Lake just outside. So every ticket on this page starts at the mall: At the Top on levels 124 and 125, SKY on level 148, a combo with Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo, and a short abra ride on the fountain lake.

About Dubai

Dubai is easiest to plan as four places in one city. Downtown has the Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall and the fountain on Burj Lake. Along Dubai Creek, the wind-tower houses of Al Bastakiya, the abra crossings and the spice and gold souqs keep the trading port the city grew from. Palm Jumeirah and the beach at JBR are for water parks and water sports, and past the last suburbs the desert begins, where the safaris on this page go.

Getting around
The Dubai Metro's Red Line stops at Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall. Our desert safaris and the full-day and half-day Dubai city tours collect you from your hotel; attraction tickets are used at the entrance, so you travel there yourself.
Old Dubai on foot
The guided Old Dubai walking tour takes about 4 hours: Al Seef, Al Bastakiya, the Coin Museum, an abra across the Creek and the spice and gold souqs, with snacks and a drink included.

Frequently asked questions

Which Dubai experiences include hotel pickup?

The evening desert safari with BBQ dinner, the premium desert safari, the morning desert safari with a honey bee garden, and the full-day and half-day Dubai city tours. Each listing says what is included.

What does the full-day Dubai city tour cover?

About 9 hours of old and new Dubai: photo stops at Zabeel Palace, the Museum of the Future and Dubai Frame, an abra across Dubai Creek, the spice and gold souqs, the Palm Jumeirah monorail to Atlantis, Dubai Marina and the fountain show at Dubai Mall. Transport is shared with other guests and starts with pickup from your Dubai hotel.

Can I see another emirate, or Oman, in a day from Dubai?

Yes. The full-day Abu Dhabi city tour collects you in Dubai, visits the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and brings you back to your hotel. For Oman's Musandam peninsula, the Dibba and Khasab dhow cruises include shared transfers from fixed pickup points in Deira and Bur Dubai.
