Try Ayurveda: We bet you’ve been hearing a great deal about this lately, so maybe it’s time to try it. Head down to the St Regis, where Ayurvedic massage is one of the specialties.
Iridium Spa, St Regis, Saadiyat Island (02 498 8996).

Buy gifts: When you’re heading back home for a visit, there are only so many times you can buy people toy camels and get away with it. We think you should change your game, head over to the Sougha kiosk at the Souq Central Market and buy handmade Emirati crafts instead.
Sougha at Souk Central Market (02 696 0000).
