The Experience
Before You Go
Carry valid ID & booking confirmation
Bring passport or Emirates ID and the mobile ticket; access to Burj Khalifa 148 requires matching ID at entry.
Dress respectfully for mosque stops
Jumeirah Mosque is viewed externally on most itineraries—wear modest clothing and keep shoulders and knees covered if you plan to enter nearby religious sites.
Beat the heat with water and timing
Midday temperatures can be extreme—schedule afternoons or early evenings and drink water before and after outdoor stops.
Expect short photo-stop queues
Popular photo points like the Burj and Jumeirah Beach can pile up; move promptly between stops to stay on schedule.

Conservation Note
Rapid coastal development has altered marine and shoreline habitats; visitors can help by avoiding litter, respecting protected areas, and booking responsible operators.
Dubai Creek was the city’s economic artery for centuries—pearling and dhow trade anchored communities before oil and global commerce transformed the skyline.
