Dubai is one of the most loved destinations in the world, especially when you are a shopaholic who has a love for mind blowing architecture.
Burj Khalifa
Nobody wants to miss visiting this iconic 2,722ft building so do yourself a favour and pre book your tickets to Burj Khalifa, you’ll escape the long queues and just breeze through the doors.
Language
A must remember rule when in Dubai, never swear, punch yourself if you must, but refrain from swearing as it will get you fined or find yourself behind bars.
When to go
Unless your sole motive for the trip is shopping and lounging inside air conditioned rooms, avoid visiting Dubai from June to September. The temperatures rise up to 45 degrees and even the sea water is at 36 degrees temperature. Also, hotels in Dubai Deira are cheaper during this time because of the excruciating heat, but hotels like the AVANI Deira Dubai Hotel have chilled swimming pools, therefore, you can always jump in if and cool off you visit then.
When to not go
During the month of Ramadan, as most shops and restaurants are closed then and even if you want to go sightseeing, you cannot drink water out in public and it takes a lot to travel dehydrated, so unless you find the challenge exhilarating, visit after.
