It’s amazing that such a tiny city in the United Arab Emirates has so much to offer for everyone. Find below must do tips,
Dubai Desert Safari
1. Desert Safari
No visit to Dubai would be complete without a trip into the desert. Such excursions, which are best organized as part of a group tour, offer a taste of the true heartland of Arabia. Tours usually include the opportunity to sand surf down a large hill, watch the sunset from the camp, and have a traditional Bedouin style dinner by moonlight, often accompanied by a nubile belly danced. It’s probably enough to go for the evening, but many do the full day trip, as well as camp overnight in the tents.
2. Tour Dubai by Air
Visitors with a head for heights and a weakness for the dramatic, can enjoy the excitement of a helicopter tour over the city. Alternatively, visitors can enjoy city or desert tours in a fixed-wing aircraft or even hot air baloons. You can try long riding trips take tourists across the city and over the desert and the Hajar Mountains. Experienced pilots with a valid license can hire aircraft from Dubai Flying Club on an hourly rental basis.
3. The Old Town
Bastakia represents what parts of Dubai used to be like with numerous Wind towers, a primitive air conditioning system. The area is small but is as close as you will get to a heritage area, which is a world apart from the “New Dubai” springing up not so far away.
4. The Gold Souk
There is a reason that Dubai is called the city of gold. With huge amounts of gold traded here, there are hundreds of shops selling jewellery. Even if you don’t wish to buy, just walking through the souk itself is awesome experience. Make sure bargain until you get a good price, but bear in mind that the prices vary depending on the gold rate for that day.
5. Indoor Skiing
The very fact that you are in the desert and are skiing could seem a contradiction, but that is the lure to the whole experience that is Ski Dubai. With prices covering the rental of all equipment and clothing, you just need to bring yourself along.
Tax free shopping
6. Shopping in Dubai
Dubai is labeled the “shopping capital of the Middle East”. With so many shopping malls and souks, there’s no better place to find products at unbeatable prices. It is truly a duty free shopper’s paradise that gives you more for your money. Dubai’s numerous shopping malls cater to every consumer need. Cars, haute couture clothing, jewellery, electronics, furnishing, sporting equipment, and any other goods will likely all be under the same roof.
7. Go Boating
Avoid the traffic and cross the creek using an abra, one of the small wooden boats. It costs next to nothing (50 fils) and can be included as part of your adventures through the city.
8. Burj-al-Arab
They say that whatever looks golden is gold. Whatever your take on Burj-al-Arab, it is the current symbol of Dubai’s extravagance. You’ll have to pay a fee to get in but is redeemable against food or any purchase you make. We would recommend going for afternoon tea at sahn eddar, early evening, but if you have the money and you like seafood, try out Al Manara. Make sure you dress up – the hotel has a strict dress code – this is 7 star after all.
9. Madinat Souk
The Souk at madinat Jumeirah gives you a real feel of Arabia, and although pricey, is worth meandering through over an afternoon. After shopping, it is possible to have dinner, perhaps at PaiThai, which you must take a boat through the waterways to reach, followed by dancing off your calories at the Trilogy nightclub.
10. Wild Wild Wadi
Always a hit with the kids, wild wadi is a great water park next to Jumeirah Beach Hotel. The park has the tallest and fastest free fall outside North America, the Jumeirah Sceirah, where you supposedly reach 80kph! For those less speed inclined, there is Juha’s Journey where you can idle your way around a river. And of course, there are many in between rides and amusements.
