Burj Al Arab Starts Charging for Hotel Tours

One of the world's most iconic hotels, the Burj Al Arab in Dubai, has started selling tickets for guided tours of the prestigious property.

Opening to the public on Friday, 15 October 2021, the tour is available for up to 12 visitors, with butler-guided groups setting off every 15 minutes from 09:30 to 20:30 daily.

Tickets start at AED 399, with the option to add a series of signature experiences, including the hotel’s 24-carat Ultimate Gold Cappuccino or signature afternoon tea at Sahn Eddar in the atrium.

Guests can also enjoy a glass of bubbly served with ocean views at the new outdoor venue “UMA”, or further enhance their tour by booking a meal at one of the hotel’s award-winning restaurants.

Ermanno Zanini, Regional Vice President and General Manager of Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, said, “We are delighted to announce the opening of Inside Burj Al Arab, especially with all eyes on Dubai as it stages the 'The World’s Greatest Show' with Expo 2020. It is the perfect opportunity to give residents and visitors the chance to experience the wonders of this world-famous landmark first-hand. Providing a stunning window into the world of Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, the tour will appeal to those intrigued by its story, not just of the building, but of its people, creativity, and ingenuity, as well as its Emirati hospitality, Arabian opulence and world-class service. We are proud to deliver this exceptional experience to the world.”

In addition to exploring the famous hotel atrium and the Royal Suite, visitors to Inside Burj Al Arab will also get to relive history through the curated Experience Suite’s digital interactives, bringing the magic of Burj Al Arab Jumeirah to life. They will see where it all started and wonder at the vision behind creating a global icon with detailed designs from the original architect and journey through the story of Dubai and Jumeirah, past, present and future, with interactive augmented reality displays. There is also the chance to revisit some of the awe-inspiring events, sporting feats and cultural moments hosted at Burj Al Arab Jumeirah, including the decks from David Guetta’s spectacular United at Home lockdown performance earlier this year (see below).
