This 8-day island escape takes you from the glittering city of Dubai to the island of Mauritius for a resort stay. It features economy, first-class, or deluxe accommodations, shared and independent touring, and is ideal for travellers wanting a romantic escape.
Start your journey in Dubai, the city that represents the 21st century better than other place on the planet. A city of both futuristic architecture and traditional markets, Dubai is perfect for shopping sprees, foodie tours, and people who want to explore the past while glimpsing the future. Tour the city to see the towering Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world, and ride up the observation deck to view the city from a height of 555m. Go on a shopping spree in the city’s palatial malls like Dubai Mall, the largest in the world, as well as the traditional souks where you can buy spices and local wares. While in Dubai, you’ll also head on a Sundowner Dune Dinner Safari where you’ll drive out into the nearby sand dunes to enjoy dinner with the sunset as your romantic backdrop.
After splurging in Dubai, head to the island of Mauritius to stay at Veranda Grand Baie Hotel and Spa. This 3-star hotel is set in a garden of rustling palms and singing birds. Stay in one of the 94 rooms done up in the Creole style and enjoy 4 nights in paradise as you enjoy the island and the pampering accommodations of the resort. Adjust your rhythms to the slow pace of Mauritian life and while away the hours in the shade of a coconut tree or on the warm sands of the beach. Spend each day pursuing whatever activities you desire, from a catamaran cruise to a snorkelling excursion to an afternoon spent at the spa. Each evening, retire to one of the restaurants to dine on sumptuous cuisine and spend the night under the stars.
At the end of your stay, connect back to the airport and return home.
