 46 Reviews  You can get to the Dubai Marina by taking the metro to Dubai Marina station or Jumeirah Towers Station. We got off at Dubai Marina and took the feeder bus to the Marina Walkway. This was good for taking photos but very hot and with little shade. We then walked down to the sea next to the Hilton... 

 34 Reviews  Yes, it is very big, beautiful, and inaccessible to the common of mortals. So, stop nearby, make your photos and join our club: "I was there and I saw it". Nightfall is the best hour, providing two different look, with and without artificial lights.

 36 Reviews  (Licenced - serves alcoholic beverages). There are numerous organisers offering dinner cruises along Dubai Creek. The two that I recommend with the best food, best atmosphere (ship) and best service are -> the Al Mansour Dhow (wooden boat) of the Radisson SAS Blu Hotel in Deira -> and the...

It was built by Emaar, Dubai's premier construction company, and designed by the American architectural firm Skidmore, Owings & Merrill. The stunning 823-metre tower contains an extravagant...

Beach, hotels, shopping mall, pools, bars, lakes, everything is accessible and available to make you feel in a 1001 nights... 

 37 Reviews  All the guides and most VT tips advice the visit to Jumeirah mosque at night, to see its illumination. My hotel was across the street and I did it almost each day. I agree with the tips. At night it gets new colours, new relieves, and, with the not so hot weather, we may take a little longer...

 22 Reviews  I only saw from outside this water park situated between the Burj-al-Arab and the Jumeirah Beach hotels. Of course that, being in Dubai it must be the most... something, but the almost 50º C of August didn't allow us to leave the air-conditioning. Maybe next time, if it there will be one! 

 20 Reviews  Dubai is famous for its contrasting desert-nothingness and lush greenery: be it on roundabouts, hotel facades or parks - the beautiful gardens in the city justify why the UAE has the world's highest water consumption per capita! Dubai is not a pedestrian-friendly city: many streets have no proper... 

 7 Reviews  Take the Big Bus around Dubai to see all the main sights on the open top buses with a commentary in 8 languages.

 15 Reviews  A reasonably good bus service is available between Abu Dhabi and Dubai. The bus departs from Abu Dhabi Municipality Bus Station to Al-Ghubaiba Bus Station in Bur Dubai, just near the Creek. The fare is Dh15. The frequency of the service is about every 40 mins. The journey takes 2 hours. 

 32 Reviews  Dubai International Airport is impressive, no doubt about it, and it has also grown and changed immensely since my initial arrival in 1998. It's huge, it's tacky, it's badly layed-out, it's designed to make you walk for miles in the hope that you'll buy something, and it's actually pretty cool if... 

 27 Reviews  Take an abra to cross the creek. This is a cheap and convenient way to move between Deira and Bur Dubai without getting caught in a massive traffic jam on the road. The abra departs from its station when it's full - which happens very fast. The fare is only Dh1. There are two stations on each side... 

 20 Reviews  Firstly Dubai is a great place in which i have lived in for three years. However, during the end of my stay i hired a car from DISCOUNT RENT A CAR and can honestly say it was the worst service i have ever experienced anywhere in the world. The cars were shocking, old, high milage, unreliable with... 

 10 Reviews  I've never tried taking the bus to travel around Dubai. The sights of long queues and buses packed with South Asian workers did not really appeal to me. This is a cheap mode of travelling but the service is extremely poor with complaints of waiting for more than an hour for a bus. This is especially...
