Dubai — 3 nights

City of Gold

Let the collections at Sharjah Museums and Sharjah Heritage Museum capture your imagination. Step out of the city life by going to Waterskiing & Jetskiing and Corniche Beach. Change things up with these side-trips from Dubai: Sharjah Calligraphy Museum (in Sharjah) and Mangrove National Park (in Abu Dhabi). There's still lots to do: buy something for everyone on your list at The Dubai Mall, enjoy the sand and surf at Marina Beach, cool off at Atlantis Aquaventure Waterpark, and take in panoramic vistas at Burj Khalifa.

City of Gold
Essentially a desert city with a stunningly advanced urban infrastructure, Emirate of Dubai is one of the seven United Arab Emirates. Home to many different cultures from around the world, Dubai resembles a city-state boasting remarkably diverse culinary and shopping scenes. Its unique position on the Persian Gulf means you can combine both coastal attractions and sophisticated urban delights. Dubai tourism thrives largely thanks to a progressive atmosphere, making it easy for tourists to experience all this city has to offer. Sightseeing in Dubai is hassle-free thanks to what is arguably the best public transport system in the Middle East. Start with Bastakiya district, the last pocket of "Old Dubai" and home to many buildings designed in the traditional style.
