Day 2
CULTURAL DAY
Many people have already visited Dubai, but fewer have visited the capital of the UAE. While Dubai strives to be the most impressive in every way, Abu Dhabi is quieter and more understated. However, Abu Dhabi has more to offer in terms of museums. Today, you’ll be amazed by one thing after another. You’ll visit the brand-new Teamlab. It’s difficult to put into words. You simply have to see and experience it.
This morning, you’ll also have the opportunity to explore the Louvre Museum or the new Zayed National Museum. Both are architectural gems. Or take a stroll to the new Guggenheim Museum, which is currently in its final stages of construction.
In the afternoon, we’ll have lunch at a chic club, followed by afternoon coffee at the imposing Emirates Palace, Mandarin Oriental. A true palace frequented by the top Emirati.
Then you will have a tour of Qasr al Watan, the presidential palace.
The last stop takes you to the Sheik Zayed Grand Mosque. This mosque is the largest mosque in the United Arab Emirates and is also one of the largest and most beautiful mosques in the world.
We end the day with a delicious dinner at the W Hotel.
Day 3
PETROLHEAD DAY
Today, every car enthusiast’s heart is guaranteed to beat faster.

This, and much more, makes Ferrari World a paradise for every true Ferrari fan.
For lunch you return to the Yas Marina F1 Circuit, where an extensive and delicious buffet awaits you.
Afterwards, you’ll get an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of this world-famous circuit. Afterward, we’ll provide some free time to fully unwind. We’ll finish the day with a delicious dinner at a cozy restaurant nearby.

After breakfast, we leave Abu Dhabi and continue our journey to a next-level destination: a beautiful resort in the middle of the vast desert.
Today we’re shifting gears, and you’ll have plenty of time to enjoy the hotel’s facilities. Upon arrival, you’ll be immersed in an atmospheric oriental setting that exudes tranquility and charm. A perfect balance of relaxation and adventure, because in the late afternoon, something spectacular is planned: a self-drive buggy through the golden sand dunes. Adrenaline guaranteed!
In the evening, we’ll dine at the resort under a crystal-clear, starry sky. A magical end to an unforgettable day.
