Laura's Travel Tips for Dubai

What are the best things to do in Dubai?

Burj Khalifa is a must. Buy skip the line tickets ahead of time (high season they will sell out) and enjoy views from above. I also recommend going in the day and again at night. We went up at night and it was less crowded and we also got to see the water and light show at night which runs every 30 minutes.

What is your best overall travel tip for Dubai?

Dubai is so much more than the biggest and tallest. See those things for sure but make a little time in your itinerary to connect with the people and the culture. The Al Fahidi District is a great place to see local art. An evening in the desert is a must. If you're up for some adventure, check out Hatta. Enjoy all that Dubai has to offer!
