About this trip
Six days covering both Dubai and Abu Dhabi, mixing old-city history with a proper desert adventure. You get the contrast between Dubai's newer landmarks and the older Bastakiya district, plus a day trip across to the UAE capital.
The desert element is the highlight for most people — dune bashing out at the Red Dunes, the kind of drive that gets your heart going. It is a partially guided trip, so some days have a set itinerary and others give you room to explore on your own.
