About Dubai & Abu Dhabi
If you are passing through Dubai en route to another one of our destinations, why not take the opportunity to explore this fascinating city and nearby Abu Dhabi on one of our stopover tours?
Home to the world's tallest building, the Burj Khalifa, and other incredible buildings such as the Burj al Arab hotel, Dubai is an exceptional city. Looking beyond Dubai's gleaming facade you can find historic buildings, colourful spice souks, and traditional dhows scattered along The Dubai Creek. Intrepid travellers who venture outside the city limits can explore rolling golden dunes by 4x4 and enjoy dinner under the stars at an authentic Bedouin Camp.
The glitz and glamour of Dubai and Abu Dhabi translates into its hotels, and we offer a choice of properties to ensure a wonderful night's sleep on your Dubai package. Whether you are looking for contemporary comfort on an affordable budget, want to live the high life in one of the most glamorous cities on earth, or fancy basking in the sun while overlooking the Arabian Gulf, you are bound to find respite at one of our centrally-located hotels.

Frequently asked questions
Are airport transfers included with your Dubai package?
Yes. We will pick you up from the airport when you arrive in Dubai and will take you to your hotel. And at the end of the trip we will take you back to the airport for your onward flight. This is another great reason to tack our stopovers onto your trip to Egypt, Jordan, Morocco, Israel or elsewhere!
Will I have a tour guide as part of my Dubai package?
Our UAE tours are semi-independent. This means that you will still enjoy the services of a local, English-speaking guide for all included sightseeing and activities, you just won't be fully escorted by a guide.
What standard of accommodation do you offer with your Dubai package?
You can choose from 3, 4 or 5 star accommodation in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, giving you the flexibility to choose the right accommodation to meet your taste and budget.
What is the currency in Dubai?
The currency of Dubai and the rest of the UAE is the United Arab Emirates Dirham (AED).
Are there local laws that I need to be aware of?
The United Arab Emirates is an Islamic country, and there are strict rules in place that many travellers from western countries may be unfamiliar with, particularly around clothing, language, alcohol, and public displays of affection (between both heterosexual and homosexual couples). As a popular tourist destination, Dubai is not as strict as other places in the country, but it is important to read up on the local laws before you travel on your Dubai city break. We have a guide to the essential do's and don'ts.
Is Dubai a safe destination for travellers from the LGBTQ+ community?
According to the 2022 LGBTQ+ Travel Safety Index, the United Arab Emirates scores an F rating for LGBTQ+ traveller safety, ranking 189th out of 203 countries. Same sex marriage is illegal and there are no constitutional or worker protections in place for the LGBTQ+ community. 0 - 25% of consulted citizens consider the UAE a good place to live for gay and lesbian people. Laws prevent the discussion of pro-LGBTQ+ issues and male homosexual activity is punishable by death under Article 354 (since 1987). This does not mean members of the LGBTQ+ community shouldn’t visit the UAE, but precautions should be taken when travelling. As long as you use common sense and discretion, travelling in the UAE shouldn’t be a problem. The LGBTQ+ Travel Safety Index is designed to provide a good overall picture of attitudes towards the LGBTQ+ community in each country and may not reflect the experience of foreign travellers to the country.

The best of Dubai
Burj Khalifa & Dubai Fountain
Inaugurated in 2010, the Burj Khalifa is a skyscraper in Dubai that is renowned as being the world's tallest building. It tops 828 metres, which is 150 metres taller than the building in second place, the Merdeka 118 tower in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. Impressive! Visit the Burj Khalifa in the evening to see the famous Dubai Fountain show too.
Desert safari
Getting out of the city and into the desert is strongly recommended for any visitor to Dubai. You can book different excursions but on our Dubai tours you will board an SUV for an exhilarating off-road experience over the dunes, before watching the sunset from a Bedouin camp.
Jumeirah Mosque
The pearly white Jumeirah Mosque is the only mosque in Dubai that can be visited by non-Muslims (dress conservatively and women must wear headscarves). Guided tours of the mosque teach visitors about Islam as well as taking in the staggering architecture of this 20th century building.
Dubai Mall
Dubai's sprawling main mall is a city within a city. It's the premier shopping destination for travellers, with more than 1,200 retailers housed here. But there is more to the mall than just shops, including an ice skating rink, a cinema complex, an incredible variety of dining options and Dubai Aquarium - one of the largest in the world.
