Top 5 travel tips in Dubai

1. Take in the views from the top of Burj Khalifa

Burj Khalifa is the world’s tallest skyscraper since 2009 with 828 metres high. For an interesting perspective of the city, take an abra (water taxi) and ride along Dubai Creek. You can't miss the opportunity to go up to the 148th floor to take in the spectacular views of the old city, the great harbour, the residential coastal areas, the 300 man-made islands of World Island, The Palms, Downtown and the Persian Gulf. The tallest observation deck in the world is the perfect spot to leave you mesmerised with those views!

Go on a mountain adventure and enjoy the views as you hike along. Satisfy your need for speed at Dubai Autodrome. If you are a bit of a daredevil, take a leap of height and see Dubai from the air!

Get away from the hassle of the urban area and ride a mountain bike along any of the trails or just have fun rolling down the hills inside a giant transparent ball. Welcome to your next adventure!

3. Taste the Emirati food

Would you like to try some original recipes at local restaurants? Aseelah is a fine dining venue in the heart of Old Dubai where you can sample a classic samak, combining European touches and incredible presentation or a delicious poached Arabian lobster with a fennel salad and some herbed pilaf. At Logma you can have authentic Arab Khaleeji cuisine. Try the Emirati pancakes chebab, or the flatbreads khameer or the succulent Emiraty-style chicken and rice. Order some grilled saffron prawns or a Lebanese milk pudding called mouhalabiya drizzled with the 24K gold honey!

4. A romantic getaway to rekindle the spark

Enjoy a romantic getaway with your other half and treat yourself with a luxury stay in a leafy palm oasis surrounded by sand dunes, a swimming pool or have a private chef preparing your meals in the privacy of your accommodation. Enjoy a romantic dinner under the stars, relax under the sun and enjoy a spa treatment with a bespoke massage or a traditional hammam. Spend some quality time with your loved one in a romantic setting where you will create new memories that will last a lifetime.
