Happy Saturday from Dubai 🌅 It's the weekend here too.

The facts:
• Since 1 January 2022, the UAE weekend has been Saturday and Sunday.
• The working week runs Monday to Friday, and Friday is a half working day, so the weekend starts on Friday afternoon.
• The UAE said it was the first nation in the world to set a national working week shorter than the global five-day week.

Weekend or weekday, between flights? Your private driver-guide meets you in DXB arrivals, plans the route around your flight, and gets you back to your terminal on time. Tours run from 2 to 10 hours, day or night.

Fun fact for your layover 🚇 Dubai's metro has no driver. Every train runs fully automated.

A few more:
• Dubai Metro was the first metro network in the Arabian Peninsula and the Gulf.
• The Red Line opened at 9 minutes and 9 seconds past 9 pm on 9 September 2009: 9/9/09, 9:09:09.
• Today it has two lines, Red and Green, with 55 stations over about 89.6 km. Inside the city centre it runs underground; elsewhere it rides on viaducts above the roads.
• Guinness World Records recognised it in 2012 as the world's longest driverless metro network.

Short on time? Skip the timetable. Your private guide meets you at DXB, plans the route around your flight, and gets you back to the airport on time. Tours run from 2 to 10 hours, and airport and hotel pickup and drop-off are included in the tour price.

Fun fact for your layover 🏝️ Downtown Dubai is on an island. Not a man-made one in the sea: a water-locked one in the middle of the city.

How it happened:
• The Dubai Canal (Dubai Water Canal) runs about 3.2 km from Business Bay, through Safa Park and Jumeirah, out to the Gulf.
• It opened on 9 November 2016. Together with the Creek, it turned a big slice of the city, including Downtown, Bur Dubai, Karama, Satwa, Zabeel and Oud Metha, into one huge island.
• Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Wasl Road and Jumeirah Road cross it on bridges 8.5 m above the water, so boats can pass underneath.
• After dark the canal promenade lights up, with the Burj Khalifa on the skyline.

Our tours run day or night. Your private guide meets you at DXB, plans the route around your flight, and gets you back to the airport on time. Tours run from 2 to 10 hours, and airport and hotel pickup and drop-off are included in the tour price.
