Day 1 - We reached Dubai International airport in the morning 7AM, checked into our hotel. We were welcomed by a refreshing drink and started our holiday by visiting the famous Dubai Mall. Dubai Mall is the world's largest mall with a variety of brands. The famous Dubai shopping festival is held here.
Dubai mall has the underwater zoo & Aquarium. You can buy tickets for aquarium directly from the ticket counter in front of the underwater aquarium or you can use the Klook app for booking the tickets. I would recommend Klook as it is cheaper. This zoo is a home to wonderful underwater creatures like seahorses, jelly fishes, sting ray and exotic animals like penguin, crocodile and many more.
After visiting Underwater Aquarium in Dubai Mall we headed over to the observation deck of Burj Khalifa which is at 124th floor with a spectacular view of the city & the famous Dubai Fountain.
The fountain show in front of Burj Khalifa will leave you awestruck. It occurs every hour after 6PM. You can avail a personal boat ride to view the fountain show. It is a splendid show one must not miss. After this wonderful fountain show it was time for us to wrap up the day with a wonderful dinner at Dubai Mall. There are many restaurants you can find here, just pick any one of them as all will have Indian food. Your belly will not miss India that is for sure.
Day 2 - Day 2 is the day for Dune bashing.
We started our day with a lovely breakfast in the hotel and then went for some shopping at Mall of Emirates. The mall features – Ski Dubai. Ski Dubai is one of the biggest tourist attractions in the UAE . Skiing, snowboarding, tobogganing activities can be enjoyed even in hot desert weather. The mall holds many brands for budget conscious shopping. There are many food options in this mall. After having lunch we headed back to our hotel to get ready for Desert Safari experience.
Desert Safari - The safari car will come to pick you up from your hotel at around 3PM. It will be better if you give an early hour for pickup as it is good if you sit in the front seat for comfortable experience. The car will accomodate 3couples. After the pickup the driver will stop near the desert where you can have refreshments. Here the tyres will be deflated so as to make the car ready for Dune bashing. The dune bashing part of the trip is a bumpy and thrilling ride that lasts about an hour. The vehicles travel in convoy and stick close together as they perform their stunts. You will enjoy the slipping and the sliding, the skidding and the spinning of the vehicle.
This night under the stars with desert all around you will be spectacular. It will include belly dancing, fire show followed by dinner. Trust me it will be once in a lifetime experience.

Our tour included these places - Spice Souk, Gold Souk , Jumeirah Beach, Burj Al Arab, Madinat Jumeirah, Atlantis Hotel Photostop, Dubai Marina.
