What places in Dubai are a must-see for someone that has never been there before?

Admin

Dubai is a good place to visit in winters and there are a lot of things you can do in Dubai..

1) Dont forget to go offroading in 4x4's and trust me the way those guys drive on sand will put shame on the best roller coasters.

2) Shopping at the Emirates mall or the central mall.. both are good for shopping

3) Gold shopping is great but make sure you bargain as those guys will normally come down by as much as 50%

4) Jumerah beach

5)Wild wadi water park is also a must see. I havent seen a better water park then this anywhere in the world.

6) You can go for a small cruise on Dubai creek.. there are a few cruises available there.

7) Going for a city tour by bus is a must and it will only take up one day of your holiday and is worth the time I would say.


8) Stay at Burj al Arab if you can afford it

Lastly there are a few night clubs if you like to go clubbing and some of them are pretty cool but make sure you go there in the tourist season coz its the crowd that makes it cool.

Anything specific.. give me a shout and I would be happy to answer all your queries.

yes i agree its a very nice place and good for shopping.. if you are looking for some elecronics then you can get here at a good price and good quality... last time she sent Video I-Pod for her younger sister... and its good one...

but hotels and food is bit expensive there...

What do you mean by beautiful weather?

I have stayed in UAE for 1.5 years on a project. The weather from April to October is super hot - 42°+ C in shade. You cannot venture out from 9:30 AM till 6 PM. The humidity is terrible. After walking out of a shopping mall and going to the next one about 200 m away, you will be soaked in sweat. I once landed at Abu Dhabi airport at 3 AM and the temp was 36° C outside. On Friday (weekly off) we went to the Corniche and were wading in the Abu Dhabi Creek. The water was luke warm!!!

But November to February, it is pleasant.

But malls and streets are extremely clean and spanking. You can shop till you drop. Almost my entire Home Theatre (Pioneer 3 disk DVD player, Onkyo Amp/Receiver and Bose AM10 speakers) were purchased there. My wife also purchased some jwellery. And of course, we purchased a lot of apparel too.

Yes. It is true. Shahrukh has a villa in one of the Palm islands. The Naakheel group has constructed the following:

a) Palm Jummeira
b) Palm Dierra
c) Palm Jebel Ali
d) The World

I have also read that you can view this Palm Island even from Moon???

just4kix

Maybe. But if you have enough money to go to the moon just to look whether the Palm islands are visible or not, you are better advised to buy the property in Palm islands.

Shopping is the key in DUbai...

All the retailers or Online Shops use to ship products from Dubai also...

Preeti_20

Oh yes shopping the major point of attraction especially for women...........they also have a good variety of gold jewelry which is cheaper than India.

smoothvibes
