Every itinerary runs at two paces. Full: three or four stops a day, most meals booked, early starts. Relaxed keeps the same length, the same hotels and the same arrival and departure, and books less into each day: one anchor per half day, later starts, lunch mostly at leisure, and a free afternoon or evening every second day. Either pace can run from the same booking, because the rooms do not change. What changes is tickets, meals and guide hours.

Dubai Layover
- Day 1Dubai Marina & JBR – Jumeirah – Dubai
The single day
We meet the group at arrivals before six in the morning and the coach goes straight out. Palm Jumeirah, a photo stop at Ain Dubai, then Souk Madinat Jumeirah with the Burj Al Arab standing behind it, which is the photograph everyone wants. Mall of the Emirates. In the afternoon the old city: an abra across the creek, the Gold Souk, the Spice Souk and Al Seef along the water. Photo stops at the Dubai Frame, the Museum of the Future and the Burj Khalifa, then The Dubai Mall and the fountain show. Back to the terminal in time for the onward flight.

What this itinerary does well
Best for
A long connection through Dubai International Airport (DXB), and the cheapest possible first taste of the destination.
Why it sells
It costs an agency nothing in hotel nights and it turns dead airport time into a selling point on their brochure.
