FIELD GUIDE / DUBAI
Dubai in 3 Days: City, Abu Dhabi and Desert
QUICK ANSWER
With 3 days, give the first to the city tour, the second to the Abu Dhabi day trip and the third to the desert safari with dinner. All three are booked separately, so lock in the Abu Dhabi day first since it is the longest.
Itinerary
- Day 1
Day 1: classic Dubai and the Creek
The English-speaking city tour takes about 5 hours. It covers Jumeirah Beach with a photo stop for the Burj Al Arab, the Museum of the Future, the Blue Mosque, the Al Fahidi district with the Gold and Spice Souks, an abra ride on the Creek and lunch at Al Khayma Heritage. One option adds admission to the 124th floor of the Burj Khalifa: the guide does not go up with you and that option does not include the hotel drop-off.
- Day 2
Day 2: day trip to Abu Dhabi
The listing shows about 8 hours with an English-speaking guide and pickup from your Dubai hotel, between 8:00 and 8:45 am or between 10:30 and 11:15 am depending on the day. It includes the Sheikh Zayed Mosque, a photo stop at the Louvre, 1.5 hours at the Qasr Al Watan palace, the Corniche and the Etihad Towers. Lunch depends on the option you choose.
- Day 3
Day 3: desert with dinner
Keep the safari for the last day: the listing shows about 7 hours with a 4x4, dinner at the camp and a show. The guide is English-speaking. Leave the morning free to rest or revisit a favorite spot.

BEFORE BOOKING
Travel questions
Can you see Dubai in 3 days?
Yes, with one city day, one Abu Dhabi day trip and one desert safari. Each is a separate booking.
Which day should I book first?
The Abu Dhabi day, because it takes about 8 hours and the pickup window changes with the day.
Are the tours in English?
Yes, all three list an English-speaking guide.
Can I cancel if plans change?
According to the listings, the city tour is not refundable and the Abu Dhabi trip can be cancelled for free up to 24 hours before.
Is the Burj Khalifa included?
Only if you pick the city tour option that includes it. With that option the guide does not go up with you and there is no hotel drop-off.
