If for some reason you wanted to revert back to some of the old UI (Tabs not on top), there are some hidden preferences which can be edited via the command line.
Typing in strings /Applications/Safari.app/Contents/MacOS/Safari | grep DebugSafari4 in Terminal, outputs a list of preferences that can be configured:

DebugSafari4TabBarIsOnTop
DebugSafari4IncludeToolbarRedesign
DebugSafari4IncludeFancyURLCompletionList
DebugSafari4IncludeGoogleSuggest
DebugSafari4LoadProgressStyle
DebugSafari4IncludeFlowViewInBookmarksView
DebugSafari4TopSitesZoomToPageAnimationDimsSnapshot
DebugSafari4IncludeTopSites

Personally I missed the blue progress bar and was hoping to get it back. By typing in defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSafari4IncludeToolbarRedesign -bool NO and defaults write com.apple.Safari DebugSafari4LoadProgressStyle -bool NO, then restarting Safari brought back the blue progress bar.  However, it also puts a loading spinner in the tab, which honestly forced me to revert back to defaults.
