São Paulo – A tour operator in the United Arab Emirates that was established as recently as the second half of 2023 noticed the potential of Brazilian tourists and has since focused on attracting visitors from the Latin American country. ES Explorer emerged from the experience of student exchange as it is part of ES English school.
“ES Explorer is an arm of the ES English exchange school, which has a seven-year experience in the market. We decided to establish a tour operator after facilitating the exchange of thousands of students to Dubai. Just to get an idea, in summer we bring over 2,000-3,000 students. Both companies were established by CEO Montserrat Taylor and cofounder Daniel Rodriguez,” says Daiana Biondo (pictured), Latin America Sales Manager.
ES Explorer offers six options of vacation packages for travelers from different countries, including Brazil. The company offers discounted fares for groups of 15 or more. The group packages have no limit on the number of people and may be customized, with choice of date. As for those who want to go with just a few friends, they have to reach out to see the available dates. You can travel in all months of the year.
The company aims to show Brazilians that they can experience Dubai without spending much. “For all that we offer compared to our competitors, we found that our prices are the best and the most affordable. When you think of Dubai, people think it’s a luxury destination, but you can get to know the city without spending a fortune,” says the manager.
According to Biondo, the major distinguishing feature of ES Explorer is that the company offers all-inclusive packages: transfers from the airport to the hotel and from the hotel to the airport, premium options, private transport that takes to and from all tours, tickets to visit all attractions, accommodation in 4-star hotels (as per Google reviews), all day dining, and expert local guides.
Travel packages
Groups of travelers may choose from six package options that range from short- to medium- and long-term. The Best of Dubai package, for example, allows travelers to spend for days and three nights in Dubai living experiences, including a city tour in Dubai, a visit to the Al Mamzar beach, and a desert safari with camel ride, a rally on desert dunes, and a dinner with dance performances.
The longer the stay, the more options of cities and tours. Ferrari World Park, Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque, The View at the Palm, Ath the Top of Burj Khalifa, and West Beach are some of the possibilities for the program. The largest package offered by the company has a duration of 14 days and 13 nights, with 12 travel experiences and visits to two cities in the United Arab Emirates. In the future, the Dubai-based tour operator plans on creating customized travel packages for companies.
