Dubai is more than shopping. Here is the five-day plan we give our first-time travellers.
Day 1: Old Dubai
Abra ride across the Creek at dusk, gold and spice souks, and dinner in Al Seef's heritage quarter.
Day 2: Iconic Dubai
Burj Khalifa at golden hour, Dubai Fountain show, and a rooftop dinner with the skyline behind you.
Day 3: Desert Day
Morning dune drive, falconry and a sunset majlis dinner in the dunes — request a private table.
Day 4: Coast & Islands
Palm Jumeirah, the lost-chambers aquarium and an evening dhow cruise.
Day 5: Slow Morning & Departure
Beach brunch at Kite Beach before your flight.
