About Dubai:
The most opulent, flashy mega city of the 7 United Arab Emirates. Dubai has heavily invested in becoming one of the premiere tourist destinations in the world. If there is anything you want to do, I’m pretty sure you will find it here!
Dubai of old and new will keep you enchanted with stark contrast, architecture, islamic culture and impressive feats all between the desert and the sea.
See the world’s largest building to date the Burj Khalifa, relax on one of several man-made islands, shop in the world’s largest malls, experience the culture of Old Dubai, haggle for gold, visit the desert, ride a camel, swim at the world’s largest water park, eat at a Michelin Star Restaurant…. And the list goes on.
Why Visit Aruba:
Plenty to do and see! Excellent day trip options to the other Emirates (like Abu Dhabi) or other countries like Oman. The favorable exchange rate (for the U.S.) makes this trip affordable and provides plenty of worthy options to splurge on.
I highly recommend this location for families and large groups of different ages.
My Favorite Experience:
My favorite experience was the Wanderlust brunch. I’ve never experienced anything like it! As a bonus visiting Abu Dhabi as a day trip and driving a ferrari is one experience I will never forget.

Key Tip:
Dubai is ALOT to consume, give yourself time to explore but also time to just relax. Trust me you will need it!
Dubai has many family oriented options, as such most hotels offer great options for large multi bedroom suites at reduced prices and discounts on multi room bookings. Bringing the kiddies on this trip, definitely check out kid city.
Money Saving Tip:
Booking activities in advance online will score you nice discounts. Also, utilize Dubai’s version of “Groupon”. Bonus tip: Admission to the Burj Khalifa varies based on the time of day, book well in advance and at off peak times for largest discounts.
