Dubai is a city of superlatives: the tallest building, the largest mall, and man-made islands visible from space.
Old Meets New
While the Burj Khalifa and Dubai Mall are staggering, ensure you visit the Al Fahidi Historical Neighborhood and take an Abra (water taxi) across Dubai Creek to explore the Gold and Spice Souks.
Desert Adventures
A short drive from the glittering skyline brings you to vast, rolling sand dunes. Book a desert safari to experience dune bashing, camel riding, and traditional Bedouin dinners.
Dress Code and Culture
While Dubai is very modern and tolerant, it's respectful to dress modestly in public spaces like malls and historical areas.
