On the surface, Dubai is a glitzy city, known for its shimmering skyline, polished resorts set along stretches of golden sand and huge shopping malls. But our specialists have dug deeper on their regular visits, discovering the traditional culture that’s often obscured by the city’s bright lights and international population.
Drawing on their first-hand experiences, our Dubai travel guide shows you how to explore the city in-depth, from wandering the narrow lanes of the historical district, browsing souqs and tasting authentic Middle Eastern foods, to venturing into the Arabian Desert for dinner among the dunes. It’ll give you an overview of the city’s different areas, where to stay and what to do during your trip so you can make the most of your time.
