Overview

Although a relatively new city, Dubai enjoys a rich

heritage with a history that goes as far back as the

Bronze Age. Take this journey with us back in time

and explore the roots of this country.

Visiting Bastakiya and its narrow lanes is an

experience you will never forget. A

ride on a lovely little abra will transport you to the

busy market area with the famous Gold and Spice

Souks. From here, you will move on to see Jumeirah

Mosque, to admire the 8th-century Islamic

architecture.
