A short stay in Dubai is certainly not sufficient to explore the vibrant nightlife, streets, deserts or shopping in the city. However, 48 hours is still enough to strike off some of the main checklist items in Dubai. Here’s how we see you spending 48 hours in Dubai.
A Visit to the Top
Since the year 2010, Burj Khalifa became a tourist attraction, standing tall and mighty at the forefront of the city’s magnificent skyscrapers. The tallest building in the world comes highly recommended for a 48-hour stay in Dubai, located 30 minutes away from Anantara The Palm Dubai Resort. Accessible through the Dubai Mall, Burj Khalifa offers epic views from the 148th floor of the 2,714-foot building.
Shop till You Drop
Walk back to the Dubai Mall from Burj Khalifa to shop till you drop in shops dedicated to some of the top brands in the world. Apart from the many shops, restaurants and food court, the mall is also home to the Dubai Aquarium and Underwater Zoo with over 33,000 aquatic creatures to explore. With over 1500 stores, the mall also contains an indoor ice-skating rink, Sega theme park and a haunted house.
A Dinner Cruise
While you may dine at 5-star resorts in Dubai during your short stay, why not add a touch of cruising adventure to it by hopping onboard the Dhow Cruise? Conclude your two-day stay in Dubai with a dinner cruise with a buffet and entertainment. The Dhow Cruise on Dubai creek is an ideal way to make your stay worthwhile.
Infamous Desert Safaris
Leave the city lights in search of an adventure in the desert dunes. Most desert safaris offer inclusive packages to set you off on heart-racing rides, followed by an Arabic buffet and entertainment. You will be able to choose between morning and evening desert safaris, to suit your 48-hour schedule so that the short vacation will carry memories to savour for years.
