Dubai has an endless array of things to do and see. The sun shines here nearly year-round, providing many opportunities to enjoy everything the region has to offer. Here is just a sample of what is available:
Activities
The beaches of Dubai – our white sand beaches stretch all up and down the coast of Dubai. Spend a day under an umbrella staring out into expansive waters, then take a leisurely stroll along the beach. Very relaxing!
A desert safari like no other – whiz down a sand dune in a 4x4 vehicle, hop on a camel for a wonderful ride, and watch the sunset on the sand with music and great food…and maybe even a belly dancer. All of these and more that can be enjoyed on a day trip safari.
Have dinner on a boat – Dubai Creek offers one-of-a-kind boat tours and a taste of Old Dubai as it connects the Deira and Bur Dubai. This is where the old mixes with the new. Dine as your boat circles around the creek in the last light of day as you gaze at the towering skyscrapers beyond.
Stroll the Dubai Marina – an impeccable example of just how perfect a community can be. This neighborhood features cafes, bars, great shopping, gorgeous hotels and beach access. Best of all, a waterway winds through the center where you can ride a water taxi to view the surroundings.
Attractions
Lose Yourself in the Dubai Mall – If shopping is your pleasure, look no further than this iconic place, where you will find anything to suit your heart’s desire. With a selection of over 1,200 stores, you will have to pace yourself! One can easily spend an entire day, just as this shopping mall.
Visit one of the many souks – For a more traditional shopping experience, browse the outdoor souks. There are many exceptional vendors selling their wares at great prices. Colorful clothing, hand-made trinkets, gold and glorious food can be had here.
Visit the world’s tallest building – Burj Khalifa. With over 200 floors, visit this architectural wonder that opened in 2010 and continues to wow visitors. Ascend 124 of these floors in 60 seconds for a thrill ride that is completely safe and secure.
The Palm Islands – you’ve seen these man-made islands in many places on the web and in guide books. Let us help you experience them first hand! Each palm fawn island has miles of beaches, exquisite hotels, million-dollar homes and great shopping and dining.
Dubai Miracle Garden – a total of 45 million flowers adorn this magnificent garden, with the most amazing designs and shapes to catch the eye. It is the world’s largest garden that lies in the heart of the desert.
Food
Dubai is truly an international city, and there is no better evidence of this than the food! Everything from freshly-made street food to the finest restaurants in the world can be found – featuring all the cuisines of the world.
Arabian Travel House prides itself on showing you the local experience, so why not try the authentic Arabic street food? Sample tasty lamb kababs, chicken tikka wrapped in lettuce, with rice and yoghurt dressing. Very delectable. Have a serving of tanoor bread (a type of flat bread.)
Camel meat is a national specialty and camel burgers are readily available all over the city. They are tasty and come in a variety of presentations. Then visit one of the many produce markets, featuring piles of sweet dates, dried apricots, and jars of golden honey (among the best honey in the world.)
No food tour of Dubai is complete without visiting a spice souk. The unmistakable aroma of Frankincense fills the senses as you pass by stalls filled with dried rosebuds, turmeric roots, blue indigo and all manner of spices and herbs.
We highly recommended Arabian Tea House. It is one of the few places in Dubai that actually serves purely authentic Emirati food in a very inviting setting. Colorful images on their menu will have your mouth watering before you even take a first bite.
