Pearls of Dubai & Abu Dhabi

Pearls of Dubai & Abu Dhabi

from 2959

8-day guided tour

From pearl divers to futurism: Discover Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the desert.

A journey back in time, when pearl divers and traders were especially active in this region. Explore the old city, cross the Dubai Creek by abra (water cab), have lunch with the Emirati and at the same time discover today's gems, such as the Museum of the Future.

No shortage of culture and nature in Abu Dhabi either: from the impressive presidential palaces to the breathtaking mangrove, you'll discover it all during this intense trip. Oh yes and in between these 2 pearls you will spend a night in a desert resort in the middle of the desert!
