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.

Oud Metha
4 miles from downtown
Oud Metha is a large residential area only 10 minutes from Dubai International Airport.

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. It’s a luxury waterfront destination with high-end commercial and residential buildings, including Cayan Tower, the world’s tallest high-rise building with the famous 90-degree twist, and Marina Mall.
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.

The tourist adventures like Dubai Desert Safari was great. Dubai creek visit was great too. Its very easy to get around Dubai as transport is very available I would avoid visiting during the Ramadan period as most shops are usually closed during the day .

If you have never been to Dubai before ,do the two days bus tour to get your bearings and a good idea of how to get about in dubai. Built up areas but exciting with many interesting place to hang out. Need transport for some areas but they have a great Metro system, cheap, very modern and easy to manoeuvre Dubai has a lot to do and see.got to remember it was a desert, it's polluted with to many cars and when it's very very dry, it's very dusty. Not to hit in April, it's manageable with great air conditioning. It's a beautiful country. Planning to go back next year. Best place was the old Dubai, favourite place the museum of the future, especially the sculpture of innovation then the frame. Best food the local community restaurant. Cheapest transport the 1Aed. By boat.
Good Things First !
April 27, 2024
Good Things First !! Dubai's The Mecca of International Trade between GCC - Med and Africa !! Is as Vibrant as it was 12 years ago!! Has grown by leaps and bounds in terms of Population and Business Houses. has the maximum number of SEZ business registrations. Own Emirate Airlines is indeed a very cooperative airline. Taxi drivers are polite and knowledgeable. Huge Malls Dragon Mart is an ocean for household goods - from pin to plane, things are available. Dubai Needs to Evolve in terms of mass public transport - civic behavior in terms of Indian menu almost nil except few restaurants offering veg in terms of making Taxi transport more attractive for tourists who come from abroad in terms of direct connectivity from the airport to all areas, every 20 minutes buses should commence. the maintenance of the Biggest Fruit and Vegetable Market is not as it has to be - need the municipality to bring change. The airport restaurants are almost serving EU menus rather than Indian The Emirates Merchandise is to be almost subsidized so that more and more Dubai lingers in the minds of the People.
