Things to do in Dubai

Dubai is a metropolis in the UAE, rising from the desert along the Persian Gulf. Once a small port, it has transformed into a ultra-modern city. Dubai weather is hot and dry, with cooler months from November to April for desert safaris, rooftop dining, and beach days. Shopping is a major draw—Dubai Mall, one of the largest in the world right next to the towering Burj Khalifa, offers endless retail and entertainment. The Palm Jumeirah stretches into the sea, home to luxurious resorts and beach clubs. For sweet lovers, Dubai chocolate is a must-try and makes a great souvenir too. From sandy adventures to sky-high views and world-class shopping, Dubai never stops dazzling.

Reviews: Dubai Desert Safari, Dune Bashing, Camel Ride, Sandboarding & BBQ

Our day trip was fantastic! Our guide/ driver were very nice and helpful. The best part was the desert 4wheeling and sunset sandboarding. Lots of beautiful pictures. The dinner show was fun too! Even the buffet food was quite delicious with the BBQ and fresh made roti! Great value for a half day experience. Pleasing my husband and teenage daughter were not easy and we all had smiles on our faces!

The driver, a young Arab man, picked us up at the hotel promptly at 2:30 PM in a 7-seater SUV. Our family of three was picked up along the way, along with two other foreigners. My 1.75-meter-tall son had to stretch his legs diagonally in the last row. Thankfully, the drive only took about 50 minutes. At the rest areas and campsites, many enthusiastic Arabs tried to sell paid services. If you don't want something, be sure to say "NO" immediately. Don't be shy and end up being tricked into buying something. We booked a group tour for a little over 500 RMB per person. Overall, the activity was quite interesting, adding a new dimension to the Dubai desert adventure. The activity ended around 8:30 PM, and the vehicle returned to the hotel. We arrived around 9 PM, showered, and went to bed. The Ctrip customer service provided continuous WeChat support throughout the trip – a big thumbs up! 👍

A must-see, I'm thrilled! Cirque du Soleil at its finest. Worth the money, Silver B – you can see everything perfectly. The bar prices are exorbitant.
