From Burj Khalifa to a desert safari — how to see Dubai in a short time.

Start day one with Dubai Mall and the Burj Khalifa observation deck on level 124, then watch the Dubai Fountain show in the evening. Give day two to Old Dubai: the Al Fahidi district, an abra ride across Dubai Creek and the gold and spice souks.
On day three, head out on an afternoon desert safari: dune bashing, camels and dinner at a Bedouin camp. Finish with Palm Jumeirah, the Atlantis waterpark or a stroll around Dubai Marina. The most comfortable season is November to March.
