Highlights

Although a relatively new city, Dubai enjoys a rich


heritage with a history that goes as far back as the


Bronze Age. Take this journey with us back in time


and explore the roots of this country.


Visiting Bastakiya and its narrow lanes is an


experience you will never forget. A


ride on a lovely little abra will transport you to the


busy market area with the famous Gold and Spice


Souks. From here, you will move on to see Jumeirah


Mosque, to admire the 8th-century Islamic


architecture.
