Overview

Within a few decades Dubai has grown from a trading port on the Gulf into a global metropolis. This tour shows you both sides of the city: Burj Khalifa, Palm Jumeirah and Burj Al Arab on one hand, and Old Dubai, with its wind-tower houses, spice-scented souks and wooden abras, on the other.

Night flights make the most of your time: you land in the early hours, go straight to a room that is ready for you, rest and start the programme refreshed. The city tour and the Downtown Dubai visit are included, and a desert safari can be added on the last day.

A Turkish-speaking guide is with you throughout. We have deliberately left free time for shopping, the beach or an evening stroll around Dubai Marina.

Visa Information e-Visa

The United Arab Emirates requires Turkish citizens holding ordinary passports to obtain a visa before travelling. Your e-visa application is made through us; a colour scan of your passport and a biometric photo on a white background are all we need. Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months after the return date. We recommend completing the application at least 15 days before departure; the visa fee and current requirements are confirmed before travel.

Important Information

  • As the outbound flight lands in the early hours, the first night's room is reserved so that it is ready on arrival.
  • On the last day rooms are vacated at 12:00; luggage is stored at the hotel and the airport transfer takes place late in the evening.
  • Clothing that covers shoulders and knees is recommended in the souks and around religious sites.
  • The dune drive on the desert safari is not recommended for pregnant guests, anyone with back or neck problems, or young children.
  • The child price (ages 2–11) applies when sharing a room with two adults.

Cancellation & Refunds

Bookings are confirmed with a written package tour contract finalised with our adviser. Cancellation charges based on the time remaining before departure, non-refundable items (visa fees, insurance, special-fare flights) and your rights if a tour is cancelled are explained on our Cancellation & Refund Policy page. Tour-specific terms are stated in the contract.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do the night flights shorten my hotel stay?

No. The first night's room is reserved so that it is ready on arrival, so you go straight to your room in the early hours. On the last day rooms are vacated at noon; late check-out can be requested for a fee, subject to availability.

How does the visa process work?

After booking, simply send us a scan of your passport and a biometric photo; we submit the e-visa application and email you the approved visa. The visa fee is not included in the tour price.

What does the desert safari include?

At €55 per person, the safari includes hotel pick-up, a 4x4 dune drive, a short camel ride, a sunset stop, a barbecue dinner at a desert camp and live shows. It runs on the afternoon of the last day, so it doesn't clash with the airport transfer.
