• Save Time! Navigate through the city with a Hop On Hop Off Dubai bus tour. Don’t worry about local transportation, the bus stops at the city's major attractions!

• Make sure to book Dubai city tour online ahead of time and secure your place. As a very popular destination, sightseeing tours in Dubai sell out fast! Book your small group full-day tour, or a private tour of the best tourist sites in Dubai, in advance to guarantee the best price!

• Plan Accordingly - When visiting the main attractions keep in mind that the workweek runs from Sunday to Thursday. Certainly, Friday and Saturday are considered weekend days.

When in Dubai all you can think of is about the touristy things to do. But there are great opportunities to explore the city from other perspectives. Spend a little bit more and add some unique activities to your Dubai sightseeing pass. 

Here are a few ideas:

• Venture into the Arabian desert, riding a comfortable 4x4 or a quad bike across the sand.

• Enjoy a camel ride in the rolling dunes. As the sun sets, watch an Arabic bread-making demonstration and get a henna tattoo on a safari desert tour.

• Take a day trip to the Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi and lose your fears at the world’s fastest roller coaster: Formula Rossa.

• Given Dubai’s location in the Arabian Desert, the city enjoys warm weather all year-round. Therefore, during the summer months, you should take care. Wear loose clothes and a hat, stay hydrated, and get as much shade as possible. 

• Although Dubai is a cosmopolitan and multicultural city, visitors should wear modest attire.

• Ask for permission before taking pictures, either of a stranger or with them. Photographs of government entities, airports, and military installations are forbidden. 

• If you visit Dubai during Ramadan, respect the Muslim holiday by refraining from eating or drinking in public. 

• Spontaneity in Dubai is rare; therefore, when going out for dinner, make your dinner reservation in advance.
