Private 10-Hour Dubai Sightseeing and Shopping Tour with Chauffeur
Spend a customizable 10 hours exploring Dubai’s skyline, malls and cultural corners with a private chauffeur. This flexible drive-and-walk day puts Burj Khalifa, Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Mall and traditional souks at your command.
The Experience
Before You Go
Beat the heat
Schedule outdoor stops (Palm Jumeirah promenade, Dubai Frame top bridge) for early morning or late afternoon to avoid strong midday sun.
Reserve key tickets ahead
Buy Burj Khalifa or Museum of the Future timed-entry tickets online to avoid long waits and coordinate them with your driver’s schedule.
Pack light for malls
Carry a small daypack and keep valuables secured when moving between crowded shopping centers and souks.
Plan transit time
Allow extra travel time between widely separated sites—Palm Jumeirah and old Dubai can take 30–45 minutes in traffic.
