Deira
5.9 miles from downtown
This area in "old Dubai" is a remarkable contrast to Downtown’s shiny newness. Be prepared to haggle in the traditional souks offering spices, textiles and gold jewelry.

Jumeirah

Jumeirah is primarily a residential area, but it's also home to the lively Madinat Souk (a traditional Arabian market). The area is filled with low-rise villas.

Places to stay from $109 a night
Oud Metha
4 miles from downtown
Oud Metha is a large residential area only 10 minutes from Dubai International Airport.

Recover from retail therapy with a day wandering in Wonderland Theme and Water Park.
Places to stay from $27 a night
Al Karama
3.4 miles from downtown
Ay caramba! Al Karama does a roaring trade in replica goods. Burrow through its bustling backstreets and “secret rooms” to peruse endless arrays of “Prada” handbags, “Rolex” watches and “Gucci” shoes. When it comes to food, the neighbourhood is 100% genuine. Pop into Pakistani restaurant Ravi to savour spicy Biryani chicken and sweet lassi yoghurt.
Places to stay from $36 a night
Dubai Marina
11.6 miles from downtown
Dubai Marina is on track to become the world’s largest man-made marina, with construction to be completed in the next few years.

Places to stay from $20 a night
Home to Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building, Dubai is synonymous with soaring skyscrapers that rise beautifully above sunny beaches and desert panoramas. The hallmark of this city is its diversity of attractions coupled with an abundance of opportunities to experience Arabian hospitality.
You can expect to have a packed schedule of things to do when visiting this modern Arabian city, from theme parks to desert safaris. One of the standout city landmarks is the Burj Al Arab, a sail-shaped structure set against the backdrop of the Arabian Sea. A short drive away is Downtown Dubai, home to Dubai Fountain – a visually exciting spectacle of illuminated water jets dancing to music. Thrill seekers can even experience adrenaline-pumping action at Skydive Dubai, Deep Dive Dubai and Dubai Parks and Resorts.
No trip to Dubai is complete without a shopping spree at its glitzy malls and traditional souks, or marketplaces. The Walk at Jumeirah Beach Residence, an open-air promenade, comes alive during the winter months while Mall of the Emirates and Dubai Mall offer year-round opportunities to shop for luxury goods. For local souvenirs, hop over to Spice Souk, Perfume Souk or Gold Souk.
Dubai's sun-drenched coastline – stretching from Jebel Ali to Al Mamzar – is dotted with numerous public beaches, offering everything from energising water sports to tranquil swimming spots. Kite surfers and paddleboarding enthusiasts can head to Kite Beach, while sunbathers can relax at Sunset Beach.
Dubai is served by two airports, Dubai International Airport and Al Maktoum International Airport, the former being one of the busiest airports in the world.

There is always something new happening or getting built in Dubai. I love the place for some bargain shopping of branded items such as clothing, shoes, electronics and other household items. Your experience start from the time you land at the airport from automated immigration to renting cars and buying local sim. Even on your way back you have the option of self-checkin, automated baggage drop, e-gate immigration and automated boarding at the gates. All these things, though small add up to your comfort during travel. I recently travelled from terminal 3 and I was literally spoiled for choices when can to the lounges I could avail. Dubai never fails to amaze you, no matter how many times you have visited in the past.

Dubai was never somewhere I intended to visit due to pre-conceptions. I was blown away with how wrong I was. The standard of cleanliness everywhere was exceptional! No pot holes, litter, graffiti, all areas were so well kept. We stayed at the Premiere Inn for a couple of nights, right next to the hotel, the standards there were far superior to what we experience in the UK. Highly recommend a visit to Global Village, a spectacular place. So many shops, malls all of different cultures/countries. Take a spare pair of feet as you'll need them. We were there until 1am but could have stayed longer. The cost of taxis, hotels, food were all really very reasonable almost too good to be true. We didn't stay or eat high end level but all customer service and standard were impeccable. We all agreed we can't wait to return. Family of 3, aged 48, 27 and 16.

May 4, 2024
Dubai was an interesting place to visit. The 8-10 lane highways are daunting and the traffic can move very slowly. The metro was a great alterntative and very easy to navigate. There are a large number of sites to visit and activities to do in Dubai. A visit to the Dubai mall and Burg Kalifa fountain shows are all worthwhile. Take time to spot the luxury cars passing by you all over Dubai.

Dubai because is a vibrant metropolis with infrastructure development, excellent economy travel routes and nice beaches available for swimming all year round. The location in the Middle East region makes the travel destination especially appealing due to multicultural spirit and dialogue.
