Dubai

Dubai is one of the world's most extraordinary cities — a place where ancient Arabian trading routes meet the tallest building on earth. Marvel at the Burj Khalifa from its 148th-floor observation deck, lose yourself in the winding lanes of the Gold and Spice Souks, cruise the historic Creek on a traditional abra, then head out to the desert for dune bashing and a Bedouin dinner under the stars. A Dubai stopover or city break adds a glamorous, effortless dimension to any East African safari itinerary.
