Learn about Dubai

How many days should you spend in Dubai?

To discover everything that Dubai offers, you will need approximately 5 to 7 days.

Where should you stay in Dubai?

Dubai offers nothing short of the best if you're a luxury traveller! From the world's only 7-star hotel, the Burj al Arab, to amazing beach resorts on The Palm Jumeriah. If you are more of a city trip traveller, you should check out some of the best 3- and 4-star hotels in Business Bay or the older part of town, Bur Dubai & Deira.

Where to shop in Dubai

Dubai is a popular shopping destination that hosts two large annual shopping festivals. Shopping is a leisure activity in this country, and shopping malls are much more than just a collection of shops. Some have the appearance of an Italian palazzo or a Persian castle and provide bizarre attractions such as an indoor ski slope, a massive aquarium, or an open-air botanical garden. Traditional souqs are also hives of activity, buzzing with timeless bargaining banter.

Public transport options in Dubai

Dubai has created a fantastic public transport system to get around the city. Buy yourself a NOL card to use the world's longest driverless metro system, expansive Dubai Bus network, Traditional Abra, or pay for your taxi ride.
