Full-Day Private Dubai City Tour with Hotel Pick-up

About this experience
This is Dubai on your own schedule. A private air-conditioned vehicle and driver collect you from your hotel at the start time you choose, and the vehicle is yours for the day: no shared coach, no waiting for other travellers, and the time at each stop set around your group.
The day starts on the coast. You see the towers and yachts of Dubai Marina, then drive out along Palm Jumeirah to The Pointe, which looks straight across the water at Atlantis The Palm. Back on the mainland the route follows Jumeirah: Souk Madinat Jumeirah, with its view of the Burj Al Arab, a photo stop at Jumeirah Mosque and time on Jumeirah Public Beach.
The afternoon crosses to old Dubai for the Gold Souk in Deira, then heads Downtown for two hours at The Dubai Mall, at the foot of the Burj Khalifa, where you can stop for lunch. On the way back there are photo stops at the Dubai Frame and the Museum of the Future, and, when it is open for the season, Dubai Miracle Garden. Entry tickets for these are not included.
Choose the vehicle that fits your group. The price covers the whole vehicle, not each person: one option for up to 6 guests, and a larger vehicle for 7 to 12.
