2. Explore the Architectural Wonders
Dubai is world famous for its incredibly impressive architectural wonders scattered throughout the city. Be sure not to miss out on a visit to Burj Khalifa – the world’s tallest building – before heading out to an exploration of Burj Al Arab and the Jumeirah Mosque. Be sure to take along your camera as you are going to want to capture every detail!
3. Lounge on Jumeirah Beach
After you get done admiring the splendor of Burj Al Arab, just a short walk away is the public strip line of beautiful sandy beach where you can sprawl out and soak up that warm sunshine. Clean beaches, glorious waters, and an array of fun beach activities are able to keep you well entertained throughout the entire day.
