About this holiday
The extra day changes everything. Where our one week package covers Abu Dhabi's essentials, this extended itinerary gives the capital's two great modern stories the time they deserve: a full day in the Saadiyat Cultural District, anchored by the floating dome of Louvre Abu Dhabi, and a full day at one of Yas Island's world class theme parks, whether that is the red rush of Ferrari World or the record breaking slides of Yas Waterworld.
Around those two headline days sits everything else a first visit should hold: the complete city tour, a private full day in Dubai, an evening desert safari with dinner in the dunes, and a farewell dhow cruise on the final night. Eight days, no rushing, and every entrance, transfer and timing handled by our own team on the ground.
