The dazzling metropolis of superlatives on the Persian Gulf
Dubai is not a city – Dubai is a promise. A promise that anything is possible: the world’s tallest building next to a traditional souk, an underwater restaurant next to a Bedouin tent in the desert, an indoor ski slope next to an endless sandy beach at 35 degrees. For discerning travellers from Switzerland, a Dubai luxury holiday brings together beach holiday, culture, gourmet dining and architectural wonder in a single destination, just 6.5 hours‘ flight from Zurich.
What sets Dubai apart from other luxury destinations is its sheer concentration of world-class hospitality. Nowhere else will you find so many iconic hotels in such a small area: from the legendary Burj Al Arab, often described as a 7-star hotel, to the spectacular Atlantis The Royal with its floating infinity pools and the tranquil boutique hideaways on Jumeirah Beach. Add to this an unrivalled range of experiences: from a private luxury desert safari and helicopter flights along the Palm Jumeirah to dinners in Michelin-starred restaurants high above the skyline. A luxury holiday in Dubai combines all these facets into one exceptional experience.
As your personal Dubai travel adviser in Basel, Switzerland, we draw on more than 30 years of experience. We don’t know Dubai from catalogues, but from many years of working with the finest hotels, DMCs and experience providers on the ground.
Unforgettable experiences between skyscrapers and dunes
Secure your individually planned Dubai luxury holiday from the comfort of your home. As your luxury travel specialist in Switzerland, we offer you tailor-made planning.
Experience the magic of the dunes at an exclusive Dubai desert resort, far from the hustle and bustle.
Visit the new Jumeirah Marsa Al Arab or the legendary Burj Al Arab for an incomparable ambience.
Enjoy breathtaking views of the Palm Jumeirah on a helicopter sightseeing flight.
Admire Dubai's skyline from the water or relax at private beach clubs along the coast.
Visit the Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building, or stroll through the traditional souks of Deira. With Pink Travel, your individually planned Dubai luxury holiday becomes a perfectly organised experience. Dubai International Airport (DXB) is your gateway to this world, from where a private chauffeur will take you to your hotel in comfort.
Forget the mass jeep tours. Our private luxury desert safari takes you deep into the dunes of the Dubai desert in a vintage Land Rover or a luxurious Range Rover, accompanied by a private guide who brings the stories of Bedouin culture to life. At the end, an exclusive camp awaits with white tents, a five-course dinner under the starry sky, live oud music and an optional falconry experience. The private luxury desert safari in Dubai is the highlight every guest describes as unforgettable, far removed from standard tourist offerings.
See Dubai from a perspective few people know: the man-made palm island, the World Islands, the Burj Khalifa and the endless skyline of the Marina, all in a private flight lasting 20 to 45 minutes. We book the most exclusive operators with small helicopters for maximum privacy, including a champagne reception and professional photographs.
Dubai has become the gourmet capital of the Middle East. Enjoy dinner at At.mosphere, the world's highest restaurant, on the 122nd floor of the Burj Khalifa. Or dine at Nobu at Atlantis The Royal, at ZUMA Dubai (world-class contemporary Japanese cuisine) or at Trèsind Studio (awarded Michelin stars). We reserve Dubai's most coveted tables, often weeks in advance.
Glide along the Jumeirah coast on a private yacht, past the Burj Al Arab and the Palm Jumeirah, as the sun sets behind the skyline. Crew, drinks and canapés included. For larger groups, we organise superyacht charters with jet skis, diving equipment and a private chef on board.
Direct flights from Zurich to Dubai (DXB) with Emirates and SWISS (daily, approx. 6.5 h). Emirates Business Class, with lie-flat seats, an onboard lounge and door-to-door chauffeur service, is legendary, and it is our most-booked service for Dubai travellers. As an IATA agency, we book your Business Class flights to Dubai at the best possible fare, including lounge access at Zurich Airport. We also seamlessly arrange connecting flights from Basel to Zurich.
Swiss citizens can enter visa-free and stay for up to 90 days within any 180-day period. You will need a passport valid for at least six months. Entry is straightforward: smart gates at Dubai airport reduce the process to just a few minutes.
We arrange private chauffeur-driven transfers for your entire stay, from airport pick-up to your hotel, excursions and restaurants. On request, we book a luxury rental car (Range Rover, Mercedes S-Class) or the legendary Dubai taxi service with its Tesla fleet.
Dubai is liberal for the region, but respect for the local culture is important. Western clothing is the norm in hotels, malls and restaurants. In mosques and traditional neighbourhoods, shoulders and knees should be covered. Ramadan (dates vary, approx. 30 days) affects public life: hotels and tourist areas operate normally, but people do not eat or drink in public during the day.
