Personalised luxury trip to architecture, art & design in the Persian Gulf
The sea of sand seems to stretch out into the distance forever. The sun's rays burn down hot, making the desert glow in the distance. It shines silver on the horizon. Silver? Really. The view sharpens. Bit by bit, the outlines of numerous buildings and skyscrapers emerge against the blue sky. As if from nowhere, it suddenly appears, immovable, an oasis at the end of the desert: Dubai. City of luxury dreams. City of star architects. The city of 1001 nights. You have to blink for a moment in the face of the magnificent skyline that stretches up before you. You can hardly believe that you are finally here, living the fairytale you have been dreaming of for so long. Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the magical desert in between.

A very short flight and you land in another world: welcome to the modern fairytale of 1001 Nights. Luxury dreams come true on this journey.

Here you will find well-deserved inner peace before travelling on to the next pearl of the Middle East: Abu Dhabi. Let the glorious Sheikh Zayed Mosque take your breath away and discover the first Louvre in the Middle East.
When you arrive at Dubai Airport, you will be met by your driver, who will guide you through immigration and customs formalities quickly using fast track.

Good morning sea view.
After enjoying the magnificent view of the Persian Gulf from your room early in the morning and a delicious breakfast at the hotel, you will meet your private tour guide in the hotel lobby for a sightseeing tour. Your first exploration takes you out of Dubai to the neighbouring emirate of Sharjah. 6,000 years of history lie ahead of you here and, as if that alone wasn't impressive enough, you will visit numerous historical spots. Lose yourself in amazement at the Islamic building tradition with mosaics and ornamental arched windows, as can be seen at the two-storey Blue Souk with its domed roofs and attached wind towers.
Discover the historic old town with all its alleyways and palaces and count how many of Sharjah's 400 or so mosques you can spot on your tour. Photography enthusiasts will find their perfect motif in the mix of Belle Époque railway station and Islamic palace - probably the most photographed motif on the Arabian Peninsula. The next favourite motifs are the 200-year-old Sharjah Fortress and the Al-Noor Mosque, which was built in the style of the Blue Mosque in Istanbul. Due to strict regulations, it can only be visited from the outside.
After a lunch break in Dubai, you will continue your city tour. Dubai is on the programme for the afternoon. This city is developing rapidly, it never seems to sleep. Discover numerous new construction projects, huge cranes that characterise the cityscape at dizzying heights and feel the hustle and bustle of the constantly evolving metropolis. You can take a break from the hustle and bustle in the new Etihad Museum, which has been little frequented to date. You will get a spectacular view over the artificial island from "The Palm", at the end of which you will see the huge Atlantis Hotel with its gigantic aquarium.
The evening ends with dinner at a restaurant of your choice on Jumeirah Beach and a leisurely stroll back to the hotel.
Enjoy breakfast with a sea view and time to relax in the morning.
You'll be travelling high up today. For an exclusive high-tea in the afternoon, head to the trendy restaurant "At.Mosphere" in the world's tallest building - what a view! However, before you head to the dizzying heights, your tour guide will take you downtown to the impressive shopping mall. There you will see the remarkable aquarium with its multitude of sharks, rays, small and large fish. Old Dubai with a visit to the souk is also on the programme today.
The evening becomes romantic. The Dubai Fountains - huge fountains whose water jets whizz into the sky accompanied by music - invite you to enjoy them in a quiet spot. Finally, for dinner, head to the restaurant of your choice on Jumeirah Beach.
Breakfast is already ready for you. Enjoy the morning and the view of the Persian Gulf.
Today your journey takes you to the neighbouring emirate of Abu Dhabi, out into the heart of the desert. Your destination is the newly opened 5* Jumeirah Al Wathba Desert Resort & Spa, an idyllic retreat in a unique setting.
The tranquil expanse of Abu Dhabi's desert landscape has a whole range of experiences to offer.
The sunset in front of the sand dunes is intense and exquisite, falconry a high, time-honoured art and walking barefoot through the sand an experience, just like the new Jumeirah Al Wathba Desert Resort & Spa. Nestled deep in the desert landscape, it is an idyllic and unique retreat full of natural beauty and restful tranquillity.
2 nights at the 5★ Hotel Jumeirah Al Wathba Desert Resort, Arabian Deluxe Desert View double room incl. breakfast – Details about the hotel

In the Talise Spa you can enjoy pure luxury and a well-deserved break in a soothing oasis of calm. A total of 6 restaurants stand for culinary delights of the highest standard and will spoil your palate.
In the morning, let your gaze wander once again into the vastness, listen to the sounds of the desert and soak up the peace and quiet. Breakfast awaits you with a unique view of the desert.
You then continue to Abu Dhabi, the capital of the United Arab Emirates. On the way, you can take another look at numerous falcons. You will visit the falcon hospital, which specialises in these fast birds. The journey continues to Saadiyat Island, probably the most beautiful, unspoilt beach in the Emirates. Here, the new Jumeirah At Saadiyat Island Resort recently opened with a sustainable concept on the kilometre-long dream beach, but not far from world attractions such as the Louvre Abu Dhabi.
