7 ‘Must Sees’ when visiting Dubai

Dubai Marina is the largest man-made marina in the World. The marina is lined with breath-taking buildings and skyscrapers, luxurious yachts and high-end restaurants and retail outlets. The Marina is home to over 120,000 people, making it a major hub of activity in the city of Dubai.

2) Atlantis The Palm
Atlantis The Palm is a luxury hotel resort located at the apex of the world-renowned Palm Jumeirah (the Palm-shaped island off the coast of Dubai, which you can see from Space!)
The resort is themed on the myth of the underwater city Atlantis and the resort is well known for its water park, Aquaventure.
Both our 99 min Original Tour and 75 min Atlantis Tour pause at Atlantis The Palm, meaning you can get that perfect Instagram snap in front of the infamous hotel.

4) Burj Al Arab
The iconic Burj Al Arab is not only one of the most luxurious hotels in the World, but the 5th tallest hotel in the World. It is located on a man-made island, connected to the main-land only by a private, curving bridge. The shape of the hotel is designed to resemble the sail of a ship.

The Burj Khalifa is the tallest structure and building in the world. It reaches a staggering height of 829.8 meters. You can visit ‘At the Top’ to see incredible views of Dubai from the World’s tallest tower. The Burj Khalifa is so tall that those who live at the top have to wait 2 minutes longer for the sun to set – now that is tall!
