The iconic Burj Al Arab should be one of your first stops. If you’re not scared of heights, venture up to one of the world’s highest observation towers at Burj Khalifa.

  • Day 3-4: Rent a car and take a short drive north to the city of Sharjah, the cultural and historical heart of the United Arab Emirates. Must-see sights here include the Sharjah Heritage Museum and Mleiha Archaeological Centre. After you’re done checking out those, take a stroll along Al Majaz Waterfront and find something to eat.
