From the coast of the Arabian Desert arises Dubai’s futuristic skyline, a glittering city towering over sand and sea. It lives up to its nickname, “The City of Gold,” with dazzling buildings and a booming travel industry. Explore this stylish cosmopolitan metropolis and discover the unique sophistication of the Middle East. The city is home to some of the most striking ultramodern architecture on the planet. It’s also home to the world’s tallest building, Burj Khalifa, which looms above the cityscape at 2,716.5 feet (828 meters). Shadowed by lofty skyscrapers, you will find world-class shopping and dining, beautiful mosques and a lively nightlife scene.

On this DreamTrip to Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Platinum Members will be treated to exclusive, per-person excursions on Day 3 (9:30-11 a.m.). Visit Dubai Miracle — this city highlight is the largest natural flower garden in the world. With more than 109 million planted flowers, it features blooms skillfully arranged on virtually every surface in the park. Then, see Souk Madinat Jumeirah, a popular marketplace full of colorful shops and lively vendor stalls.

Also on Day 3, you’ll enjoy special access to Burj Khalifa. This mighty landmark holds several world records, including tallest free-standing structure on the planet. Take an exhilarating elevator ride to the 124th floor. From the “At the Top” observatory, get ready for jaw-dropping views of Dubai and beyond. If you're brave enough, step out on the open-air platform.

By booking, I acknowledge having received notice of this potential charge and accept that Rovia™ recommends a credit card rather than a debit or bank card be used in the event the hotel requests the card. I understand that any such request made by the hotel is outside of the control of WorldVentures™ and Rovia and is strictly a hotel policy. Should I have questions concerning the hotel’s policy, I accept responsibility for contacting the hotel independent of Rovia or WorldVentures.

Each individual, including each child, who is coming along with you on your DreamTrip is required to have a booking prior to the commencement of the trip.
