The tour includes a photo stop of the Burj Al Arab hotel from Madinat Jumeirah, replacing the previous stop at Jumeirah Open Beach due to construction. Next, the bus drives through Palm Jumeirah, the man-made island shaped like a palm tree, offering views of luxury hotels and the Atlantis Resort. The route continues along Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai’s main highway lined with skyscrapers, passing the Museum of the Future and the Burj Khalifa without stopping for photos. The tour then visits the historical areas of Al Seef and Al Bastakiya for about 15 minutes to observe traditional architecture. Guests cross Dubai Creek by abra (water taxi) to visit the Spice Souk, followed by about 20 minutes at the Gold Souk where shopping is possible. The tour ends in Downtown Dubai near the Burj Khalifa.
