Desert Safari with Dune Drive, BBQ Dinner & Belly Dance

Driving in the desert is like being on another planet. The desert is one of Earth’s most mysterious and Instagrammable landscapes. You can be sure it will be a day you will never forget, as you drive over golden sands, navigate through vast expanses, and witness all sorts of natural phenomena, from sunrise to sunset. Professional drivers guide exhilarating trips over mesmerizing topography, even stopping to let tourists snap pictures of the breathtaking views. The culinary scene in Dubai is robust, so travelers should be sure to check out local dishes such as biryani and shawarma. To really experience authentic Emirati cuisine, head over to Karama for a traditional Emirati buffet dinner at The Old Town Restaurant.

Watch The Burj Khalifa Fireworks

During Dubai New Year Celebrations, fireworks are shot off from multiple locations throughout the city. If you’re visiting for the holiday, the best way to experience this tradition is by finding an elevated position. While many people will flock to the beaches and tall buildings, there are also some great spots on which to build your own viewing station. If all of these places are too crowded, try one of these options. Getting around in Dubai during the New Year is a nightmare. The roads are packed, and every single driver would like to be at the same spot for the Burj Khalifa Fireworks. Don’t try to drive anywhere between 8 PM and 10 PM , find another way to get there if you must.

An Evening In Madinat Jumeirah

Jumeirah has a lot going on during New Year Celebrations. In fact, they’re all over the place. A fire show? Check. Live music? They got it. Free-flowing champagne? You better believe it. The entertainment is practically endless at Jumeirah’s NYE party, so you’ll want to get there early to snag yourself a decent parking spot and to catch all the action from the beach.

Set Off On A Hatta Adventure

If you’re looking for an escape from the city that’s still close enough to go back, then head to Hatta, a small town located within the Hajjar Mountains. This range of limestone mountains sits on the east coast of the UAE and features many outdoor activities, such as kayaking and hiking. There are also other activities in which adrenaline junkies can engage themselves, such as mountain biking and zip-lining. Hatta Mountains are the historic center of the Dhawahir tribe, and it’s a city that is steeped in both culture and history. It’s home to a number of natural wonders, including its lake, which straddles the border between Sharjah and Oman. As picturesque as it is, however, Hatta’s true beauty lies in its historical sites and museums.
