When the balloon reaches a certain height, watch the impressive falcon dive and swoop in the air before returning to its trainer. Relax this afternoon and indulge in a spa treatment, if you wish. We recommend touring the city this afternoon or embarking on a shopping excursion with a guide and chauffeur. Visit modern Dubai landmarks, including the magnificent Burj Khalifa, and explore the Bastakiya area, a historic neighborhood founded in the late 19th century.
