This is a full-day experience designed to give you the best of both worlds without rushing. You'll spend about 4-5 hours in the desert (6:00 AM - 11:00 AM), roughly 45 minutes in comfortable transit, and 5-6 hours exploring Downtown Dubai (1:00 PM - 8:00 PM). The long day is paced carefully - you'll have high-energy moments and relaxed periods. Most guests tell us it doesn't feel as long as it sounds because every part is engaging. We recommend a good night's sleep before and after!
