weekend.
11. Madinat Jumeriah Stamp o
12. Souk (old dubai)
13. Atlantis monorail and the Palm

For a family - i see you will have some constraints. My friend, the problem is that everyone
has different capacity/desire to travel around and see places.... i cant suggest a day wise
itinerary but i can recommend you not to go to Dubai Mall, Global Village on a friday
evening...it will be too crowded...
Just go thorugh the list....and look at the locations (see their websites) ...come up with a day
wise plan for yourself...

and then i can suggest if there is anything you should change to improve the plan...

As far as your intinerary is concerned -

Day 1: Atlantis, Burj AL Arab, Dolphinaorium, Glow garden -------check for dolphinarium
times because dophin show and glow garden location is nearby and flow garden needs to
be seen in the evening....atlantis and burj arab can be done during the monring (before
lunch) type

Day 2: Dubai Theme Parks (Hollywood+Bollywood+Lego) got one day ticket

Perfect go for it....it will take a day

Day 3: Miracle Garden, Butterfly Garden, Global Village

Perfect go for it....it will take a day ...and these are nearby...please dont do it on friday...and
global village only opens at 4PM (i think)..just check the website..

Day 4: Al Fahdi Fort, Dubai Creek & abra ride, Burj Khalifa, Fountain, Dubai Mall

Problem here is that creek is more fun in the evening... and fountain/burjkhalifa is also an
eveningish activity...Have a rethink....I sugegst you do madinat jumeirah in the
monring/afternoon and then spend your evening at dubai mall, burj lhalifa...and enjoy
fountains....

move creek (& fort) to day 5....

Day 5: Ibn batuta mall, ???????

You cant miss the beach when you are in dubai...spend morning at al mamzar....then enjoy
creek in the evening......i supoose wife would want to visit gold souk as well and its not far
from creek...all sort of same area......keep the last day a bit relaxing & less busy.

Enjoy

Dear PNR,

I completely agree with Vikas and suggest you to consider his suggestion. Meanwhile on
day 5 instead of visiting any mall i recommend you to visit Al Ain (Zoo & Mountain) its
worth it. But it is quiet far from Dubai almost 150 kms. So if you have transportation
problem and would like to be in Dubai only then i will suggest you to go for shopping. or
go for ice cafe which is a different experience at times square mall on sheikh zayed road

@PNR

this is a super cool,incredibly busy and optimistic schedule....hope your kid is not an
infant/toddler..

Day 2: Dubai Theme Parks (Hollywood+Bollywood+Lego) Spend day time Return to Dubai
Creek for ABra ride and Dinner, possible?
depends on whats there at this bollywood theme park...but in any case....the dhow cruise
ride and dinner will help you relax....Its about an hour drive from theme park coming back
to creek....hope you are staying around bur dubai area...coz i am sure you wouldnt want to
travel any more after that :p

Day 3: Miracle Garden, Butterfly Garden, Global Village

Day 4: Al Ain (Zoo & Mountain), Burj Khalifa, Fountain, Dubai Mall

..try to get Al Ain early morning ..and enjoy the first half..its beautiful there...Al ain mountain

not friday - dubai mall is annoyingly crowded on friday evenings...

Day 5: Al Fahdi Fort, al mamzar, Gold souk, Ibn batuta mall, ???????

Try to do ibn batuta in the first half..then go al mamzar beach and finish it off in gold souk ,
meena bazar...

Dear PNR,

Day 4 has a problem. you cannot enjoy al ain plus burj khalifa in one day. As if u go al ain
the beauty is to be on the mountain when its sun set to see the beauty of the SUN getting
down. so it would b like u go to zoo n then get on top of mountain n till ur back its already
very late n tired also to go burj khalifa.. i think u need to make some changes over there.

the same goes to day 2 schedule also. The parks in Dubai are so big that u cannot finish in
couple of hours n go for next. if u rush then its not worth visiting that park n pay so much
for it.

Personal suggestion... dont rush for discovering everything. enjoy what u see to the max. u
can go back to Dubai if u feel its worth in ur next vacation.

Regards,
