Day Trip In Dubai [part 1]

Assalamualaikum and happy new year everyone!


seperti yang dijanjikan, for this entry I'll share about my experience mase kat Dubai last november. Alkisahnya, masa tengah search for the best & affordable flight tickets, aku tengok Emirates ni offer paling good deal. So i propose kat my hubby nak naik Emirates Airlines and he immediately agreed, siap suruh stay kat Dubai lagi. And the best part is, if we stay or just stay for transit, the price is still the same. So ape lagi, we decided to stay one night kat Dubai (not enough gais! please stay longer!) and plan for day trip sightseeing kat Dubai. Since we doesn't have much time kat Dubai, aku pon study pasal company2 yang buat day trip sightseeing old and new Dubai dengan desert safari sekali to make our life so much easier. Unfortunately, most companies semua tawarkan desert safari with dune bashing (its thrilling and interesting, but considering Ayden's comfort and safety, I'd rather not take any chances), kalau ada pon yang takde dune bashing biasenya for private tour which is too pricey for us. Search punya search, then I found this FuntoursDubai, and luckily for us, they're on promotion for 2tour in one day for just 200dirham/person! Just what I need! Trus immediately booked the tours! They provide us day tour in the morning, and desert safari tour in the afternoon. So enough talking, let the picture do the talking..

Ayden first time long-haul flight, before ni paling jauh pon flight JHB-PEN je hehehee

stroller ni kami sewa from riffkids.co, highly recommended sebab sangat best nak bawa untuk travel purpose, easy to fold & carry, boleh masuk dalam cabin lagi, sangat membantu untuk kami yg banyak luggage nak handle.

Dubai kami datangggg 💃🏻💃🏻

we stayed at City Premiere Hotel Apartment kat Sheikh Zayed Road, just a few minutes walk to Burj Khalifa (which we didn't have time to go since our itinerary was too packed sobsobsob, next time baby, next time!) (credit picture from Agoda.com cause I forgot to take my own picture gagagaga)

we got an early check in, and upgraded to a bigger room for free! thus, I totally recommend this hotel 👍👍(credit picture from Agoda.com)

so after freshened up and had our breakfast at the hotel at 9am, the representative from funtoursDubai came to pick us up kat hotel, and we're ready to rock!

their representatives (forgot their names 😂😂, one is philipino, and the driver is Pakistani) was very nice and informative. They told us about the new and old parts of Dubai in the SUV.

first stop is at the Dubai Creek, I thought we could go for canal ride, but time is ticking, so just picture jelah sempat.

next, they brought us to Dubai museum, very good place to learn about the history of Dubai and Persian people.

then we went to the Gold Souk where lots of jewellery stores and souvenirs store kat situ. Diaorang jual emas rilek2 je tepi jalan gais! and they told us, the gold here is authentic cause severe punishment kalau ade org yang jual fake jewellery.

then kami dibawa ke Spice Souk, where you can find mediterranean spices, dates and nuts.

lepas tu, terus pegi jalan2 ke new parts of Dubai. We stop by at this famous mosque called Al-Rahim Mosque

not in a prayer time, so just picture for kenangan jelah

is at Jumeriah Beach

Burj Al Arab, the 7 star hotel!

The Atlantis hotel

and back to our hotel, by then we are so tired cause dapat sleep dalam flight je and we were so jet lag. so xlarat nak lunch pon, trus tido je sebab petang nak pegi desert safari lak.
