regret it. Discover Dubai and the UAE with this

thrilling experience being thrown over the sand

dunes and stopping at various places to take in

the magnificent setting. ‘Amazing, but would

defiantly recommend not to eat before’

Sunset BBQ This perfect setting couldn’t be a better way to end

to a day. Situated in the middle of the desert and

accompanied by an Arabian buffet and

entertainment such as Henna and Belly Dancing

and stargazing after watching a beautiful sunset,

cant get much better. ‘A magical night to always

shouldn't be missed, relaxing on board feeding the

family outing enjoyed by everyone’

Downtown Dubai Whether you’re ready to buy or not, a wander

through the dazzling Gold Souk and Herb Market is

a must. The government keeps control over the

quality of all the products, so rest assured that your

purchases will be genuine. The same cannot be

said, for the street traders selling "genuine fake" watches and "Guuci" handbags.

of the Islamic faith.
