Questions About Dubai Travel Know

Donald asks…

How safe is Dubai for travel/study abroad?

Assuming the traveler dresses conservatively, makes prudent choices and knows some of the native language, and "did the homework".

admin answers:

I live in Dubai n its ABSOLUTELY safe 4 spending vacations , working and studying here.
U jus hafta follow the rules of the city like u arent allowed 2 eat or drink out in the open during ramadan and jus basically knw the culture.
Many westerners come to spend their holidays and even live here. U dun need to worry much abt coming here.

Thomas asks…

I want to travel to dubai for a holiday in the month of feb?

Whats the best places to check out ? I know that the Shopping festival is on...any idea on whats the best thing to buy there and what should be my travel budget?

admin answers:

The best tourists spots would be:
1. The malls. Dubai Mall and Mall of the Emirates are one of the most famous malls. Others are Dubai Festival City, Mercato, etc.

2. Burj Khalifa. Tallest tower in the world. You can go to the observation deck called "At the Top" which costs 100 dhs per person.

3. Desert Safari.

4. Hotels such as Atlantis, Burj Al Arab, The Address.

5. Water parks such as Wild Wadi near Jumeirah Beach Hotel or Aquaventure in Atlantis Hotel

6. The Dubai Metro. Its really nice, but travel Gold Class.

7. Night clubs and bars. Famous ones are Sanctuary in Atlantis, Amatista in The Address Dubai Mall, Chi, Keva.

Whereas budget is concerned, it depends on where you're staying, how much you shop, which airline you fly with, how much you spend on transport, etc. It could be as low as $1000 to $10,000+.

Robert asks…

I was issued a visit visa from Dubai for my old passport. I renewed my passport. Will it affect my travel?

I want to know if I just need to bring my old passport as reference for my visa when I travel to Dubai?

What you should do is to contact the Dubai Embassy or Consulate office and ask the question. They may have particular requirement and the rules may have changed. You should not depend on any answers from anything but official sources.
