Dubai

From futuristic skylines and luxury beach resorts to desert adventures, old souks and world-class dining, Dubai is a destination built around variety.

Welcome to Dubai

More Than a City Break

Dubai combines big-city energy with beach-holiday ease, giving you the freedom to spend one day beside the Arabian Gulf and the next exploring skyscrapers, souks, desert dunes or some of the world's most ambitious attractions.


Whether you are planning a luxury escape, a family holiday, a shopping break or a few days of winter sunshine, Dubai makes it easy to build a trip around exactly how you want to spend your time.

Top Tips for Travellers

A little planning can help you get much more from Dubai. From choosing the right area to understanding the climate, these simple tips will help you enjoy the city at its best.

Choose the Right Area

Dubai is spread out, so where you stay can make a big difference. Downtown is great for sightseeing, Marina and JBR suit beach lovers, while Palm Jumeirah is ideal for a resort-focused stay.

Plan Around the Heat

During the hotter months, outdoor sightseeing is best done early in the morning or later in the evening. Dubai's malls, attractions and hotels are designed around the climate, so it is easy to balance indoor and outdoor experiences.

Explore Beyond the Skyscrapers

Make time for Dubai Creek, traditional souks and older neighbor hoods as well as the city's modern landmarks. They provide a completely different perspective on Dubai.

Book Popular Attractions Ahead

Major attractions can become busy, especially during peak travel periods. Booking experiences such as observation decks, desert safaris and popular restaurants in advance can save time and give you more choice.

Find Your Favourite Side of Dubai

Dubai can be a morning on the beach, an afternoon shopping beneath the world's tallest building, dinner overlooking the marina or a sunset journey across the desert.


From luxury resorts and family attractions to traditional souks, world-class dining and unforgettable skyline views, the city offers far more variety than many first-time visitors expect.


However you want to experience it, start exploring Dubai and find the part of the city that feels right for you.
