A brief introduction to Dubai

A glittering paradise full of luxurious architecture, glamorous dining spots, and pristine white-sand beaches, Dubai is a feast for the senses and offers unforgettable experiences.

Start your trip by admiring Dubai’s elegant architecture, with the most famous landmark being the iconic sail-shaped Burj Al Arab. Shopping lovers will also appreciate the city’s many retail options. Discover local treasures at the Souk Madinat bazaar or find more trendy items at the Dubai Mall - the largest shopping complex in the world. While here, be sure to visit the cinema, VR park, haunted house, and countless restaurants serving up dishes from all over the world.

After dark, Dubai’s sleek rooftop terraces, shisha lounges, and cocktail bars come to life. We recommend indulging in local delicacies such as ‘luqaimat’ (hot sesame dumplings) or ‘chebab’ (pancakes topped with sour cheese and sweet date syrup).

Plenty of exciting experiences await you upon taking an excursion outside the city. Desert safaris are readily available and provide expansive picturesque views of rolling sand dunes in the Arabian Desert.
