The programme
What this trip is
A duplex suite and a butler in the most recognisable hotel on earth. One booking covers the whole itinerary: hotels, private touring, transfers and the named entries, sequenced so each day builds on the last.
Every package is adjusted to your dates, pace and taste before anything is confirmed. Tell us who is travelling and we will shape it around you.
Multi-day trips live or die on sequencing: which day to spend in the desert, when to see the mosque, where the rest day belongs. That ordering is the craft we sell.
Practicalities, handled: your driver's WhatsApp arrives the evening before with the exact pickup time; the vehicle carries chilled water and chargers; timings flex on the day if a flight, a nap or a whim demands it. Full refund up to sixty days before travel, and you can pay on the day.
In short
- A duplex suite and a butler in the most recognisable hotel on earth
- Fully customisable before confirmation
- One booking, zero logistics
- Sequenced by people who live here
- WhatsApp support before and during
- Full refund up to sixty days before travel

Not included in the price
Lines: 5
Not included: Attraction entry tickets unless listed as included
Not included: Meals and personal expenses unless listed
Not included: Gratuities (appreciated, never expected)
Not included: Travel insurance
arranged for you and quoted separately, because the premium depends on your ages, dates and cover
Quoted in writing before anything is confirmed
Not included: Visa fees where a visa is needed
the authority sets these by passport and length of stay, and we quote them with your proposal
Quoted in writing before anything is confirmed
Travel insurance and any visa fees are quoted with your written proposal, before anything is confirmed. A premium depends on your ages, your dates and the level of cover you want; a visa fee is set by the authority and depends on the passport and the length of stay. Neither figure can sit honestly inside a headline price, so neither is buried in one, and nothing is added at the payment page.
This programme is priced per person on double occupancy, and is adjusted to your dates and party before confirmation.
Add-on
A chauffeur on the free days
This programme includes a car and driver on every touring day. For the days in between, add a chauffeur by the day, in the car you choose.
Touring days already include the car, so a chauffeur is only ever charged on days without a tour.
Beyond the car
Arrive by private jet, or land at the hotel by helicopter
Two ways to open or close this programme that skip the road entirely. Both are quoted to the day and the aircraft, so there is no fixed price to publish, only a real one once we know the mission.
Private jet charter
The aircraft chartered to your dates and party, ground handling arranged at both ends, so the programme can open or close from almost anywhere rather than wherever a schedule happens to fly.
Contact for pricingAsk about thisHelicopter, straight to the hotel
Skip the transfer entirely: a helicopter from the airport direct to the hotel's own helipad where the property allows it, arranged around your programme's arrival.

The hotel, in full.
Umm Suqeim, on its own island
Burj Al Arab Jumeirah
The sail: the single most recognisable hotel on earth, and an all-suite one
There is no soft way to describe the Burj Al Arab, so here is the plain one: it stands on a man-made island off Umm Suqeim, it is shaped like a spinnaker, and it is the building the rest of the world pictures when it pictures Dubai. Every room is a duplex suite over two floors.
Staying here is not a room booking, it is the point of the trip. Guests are driven across the private bridge, met at the door, and assigned a butler for the stay. In this package the car that brings you across that bridge is your own for the whole trip, which is the difference between arriving and being delivered.
Signature moments
- A duplex suite and a butler, as the entry level
- The private bridge, and the arrival that comes with it
- The building itself, which needs no explanation anywhere in the world
- Suites
- 202 duplex suites over two floors, the smallest of which is larger than most Dubai apartments
- Service
- Butler service as standard, on every suite category
- Arrival
- Across a private bridge to the island; a helipad sits near the top of the building
- Dining
- Signature restaurants across the hotel, including the underwater-themed dining room reached by simulated submarine
- Beach & pools
- Terrace with sea and sky pools on its own deck over the Gulf
- Location
- Umm Suqeim: roughly 20 minutes to Downtown, 30 to DXB, driven throughout
Good to know
- · This is the most expensive line on the package list by a distance, and it is priced accordingly
- · Suites face either the sea or back along the coast: tell your coordinator which you want
- · Access is controlled: non-residents need a restaurant or spa booking to come inside

Cancelling, changing, and if a day goes wrong
- Beyond sixty days a programme refunds in full to the original payment method. From thirty-one to sixty days, 75%. From fifteen to thirty days, 50%.
- Inside fourteen days a programme is charged in full, because rooms and inter-city cars are already committed. Over Christmas, New Year and Eid that becomes sixty days, because the rooms themselves are bought non-refundable.
- If we cancel (weather, an authority closure, a vehicle problem), you choose a full refund or a free re-book, and you get the reason in writing. Partner-operated activities are held to the same standard.
- If we cannot reach you within 45 minutes of the pickup time on the day, the booking is treated as a no-show and charged. Keep WhatsApp reachable on travel day and this never happens.
What to bring
- Sunscreen and sunglasses
- Comfortable shoes
Tell us at enquiry about wheelchairs, walking aids, prams, dietary needs or anything that changes the pace. The programme is re-sequenced around it before it is confirmed, rather than apologised for on the day.
Who to call
One coordinator runs your programme from the moment it is confirmed to the airport drop, on WhatsApp. Same thread for a changed plan, a late flight or a table you would rather move; you never re-explain the trip to someone new.
Guide notes for this programme
- Send your flight numbers as soon as you have them: the whole first and last day is built around the real times, not the ones on the booking.
- Ask your coordinator for the room request in writing at booking rather than at check-in: it carries much more weight forty days out than forty minutes out.
- Keep one full day with nothing in it. The resort is a large part of what you are paying for and it is a waste to only see it at breakfast.
- November to March is the season this trip is built for. Summer is genuinely hot and we will tell you honestly what that changes.
- Tell us about allergies, mobility and anything else at booking rather than on the day: everything on the list above can be adapted, but not at an hour's notice.
Asked and answered
Questions guests ask about this programme
The questions that actually come in about Burj Al Arab: 3 Nights, answered against the itinerary rather than around it.
What exactly is included?
3 nights at Burj Al Arab Jumeirah with breakfast, a private vehicle and driver for the entire stay rather than for named transfers only, airport pickup and drop-off, and every activity listed in the itinerary above. Flights and entry requirements are excluded. Your booking confirmation itemises all of it line by line: if it is not on that list, assume it is not in the price.
Is the price really per person?
Yes, per person on twin share. Solo travellers pay a single supplement because the room cost does not halve; families and groups usually pay less per head, because the vehicle cost does. Tell us the party and we will quote the actual number rather than a from-price.
Can we change the itinerary?
Yes, and most guests do. The days above are a shape rather than a contract: swap the desert for a second beach day, add Abu Dhabi, drop the Burj if heights are not your thing. Because the car and driver are yours for the whole stay, changing your mind costs nothing.
Do we get the same driver throughout?
Yes, wherever the schedule allows, and you get their name and number before you land. Continuity is most of what makes a private trip feel private: by day three they know how you travel.
What if we want a different room category?
Every room type at Burj Al Arab Jumeirah can be quoted. The package price above is built on the entry category with breakfast; upgrades are quoted as a difference rather than repriced from scratch, so you can see exactly what the better room costs.
Are flights included?
No. Hotel, transfers, the private vehicle and the activities are included; flights are not, and never have been in any package we sell. Book them yourself, send us the numbers, and the arrival and departure days are built around your real times.
Not answered here? Ask before you book, and the written proposal answers it again, in writing, before anything is confirmed.
