Day-by-Day Itinerary

1. 1

   Day 1: Arrive in Dubai and cruise Dubai Creek

   Dubai welcomes you with an airport meet-and-greet and transfer to your city hotel. After check-in, take time to settle in after the flight from Nairobi. In the evening, head to Dubai Creek for a relaxed dhow dinner cruise. The waterway offers a gentler introduction to the city, with views of the historic creekside districts and modern towers beyond. Dinner is served on board before your return transfer and first overnight in Dubai.

   Day 2: Discover Dubai’s city highlights

   Dubai’s landmark districts take centre stage on a guided city tour after breakfast. Travel through the city’s established neighbourhoods and waterfront areas, with time for photographs at key viewpoints. The route is designed to give first-time visitors a clear sense of Dubai’s contrast: traditional creekside heritage, wide boulevards, ambitious architecture, and the coast. The afternoon is free for shopping, a café stop, or an optional visit to a major attraction. Return to your Dubai hotel for the night.

3. 3

   Day 3: Desert safari and dinner under the stars

   Dubai’s desert lies beyond the city skyline, and this afternoon safari brings the two worlds together. Enjoy hotel pickup for a drive out to the dunes, where the programme includes a camel ride and time to watch the light change over the sand. Continue to a desert camp for dinner and an evening under the open sky. Desert excursions are best enjoyed at a comfortable pace, so tell Proven Adventures in advance about young children or mobility needs. Return to Dubai after dinner.

4. 4

   Day 4: Full-day Abu Dhabi discovery

   Abu Dhabi is explored on a full-day guided excursion from Dubai, with roughly 10 hours allowed for the return journey and sightseeing. The UAE capital offers a different rhythm from Dubai, combining broad waterfront roads, formal civic landmarks, and contemporary city districts. Your guide will manage the day’s route and planned stops, leaving you free to enjoy the change of scenery. Return to your Dubai hotel in the evening for your final overnight and time to prepare for departure.

   Day 5: Depart Dubai

   Dubai departure day is kept straightforward with breakfast at your hotel and an airport transfer arranged around your flight time. If your flight departs later, Proven Adventures can help you plan optional sightseeing or shopping, subject to luggage arrangements and tour availability. Leave with the city’s bright skyline, desert sunset, creek cruise, and Abu Dhabi landmarks all part of one well-paced UAE escape. Your return journey from Dubai marks the end of the five-day package.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is included in the Dubai package price?

The Proven Adventures 5-Day Dubai City, Desert & Abu Dhabi Escape is priced from KES 79,950 per person. The package structure includes return flights from Nairobi, four nights in Dubai, daily breakfast, airport transfers, a Dubai sightseeing tour, desert safari with dinner, and an Abu Dhabi day tour. Final cost depends on travel dates, flight availability, room type, and selected upgrades.

How much does a 5-day Dubai holiday cost from Kenya?

Dubai holiday prices from Kenya start from KES 79,950 per person for a five-day, four-night itinerary. This is a lead-in rate based on shared accommodation and available flights. Dubai flight fares, hotel availability, school holidays, and major events can change the final package price, so Proven Adventures confirms the live cost before booking.

What is the child policy for this Dubai trip?

Children aged 2 to 11 can travel on the child rate shown for this Dubai package when sharing with adults. Infants and children who require a separate bed, special meals, or private airport transfers may need a tailored quote. Proven Adventures will confirm the correct child fare once the child’s age, room arrangement, and travel dates are provided.

When is the best time to visit Dubai?

Dubai is a year-round destination, but many Kenyan travellers prefer the cooler months for city sightseeing and desert activities. October to April generally offers more comfortable outdoor conditions, while May to September can suit travellers seeking lower-demand dates. Proven Adventures can advise on the best available dates for your budget and preferred activities.

Is a UAE visa included in the package?

Kenyan travellers should confirm current UAE entry and visa requirements before travel. Research indicates that a UAE visa for Kenyan residents is USD 100, and this fee is excluded unless it is specifically listed in your confirmed quotation. Visa rules, documentation requirements, processing times, and fees can change, so Proven Adventures will guide you through the required booking documents.

Is there a single supplement for solo travellers?

A single-room supplement applies when one traveller occupies a room alone, because the lead package price is based on shared accommodation. The supplement changes with the hotel, season, and flight availability. Proven Adventures will provide the exact single-traveller cost before you commit to the booking.

Is this Dubai itinerary suitable for families?

Dubai sightseeing is paced for families, couples, and first-time visitors. The itinerary combines guided city highlights, a desert safari with dinner, and a full-day Abu Dhabi visit, while keeping the same Dubai hotel base for four nights. Desert activities may have age, health, or comfort considerations, and Proven Adventures can adjust the programme where needed.
