There is so much to see and do in Dubai, from the serenity of the dunes to the bustle of the souks. During your visit, you can go across immense sand dunes, charming villages, and stunning skyscrapers.

Visit the Grand Mosque

Walking about the Grand Mosque is a great way to avoid the noon sun’s sweltering rays, especially in the morning or early evening. If you are staying at one of the hotel apartments near Ibn Battuta Mall such as the Oaks Ibn Battuta Gate Dubai you may even be able to see it from your room!

The Burj Khalifa must be included on any list of stuff to do in Dubai. To truly experience the amazing sense that you’re atop the world’s highest building, head to the At the Top Burj Khalifa viewing platform, located on the 124th floor and a must-do for every Middle Eastern vacation.

Take an Arabian Desert Safari

Many visitors to Dubai like taking day trips out into the Arabian Desert. With a variety of tour companies offering 4×4 and camel safaris, you can either go wild in the sand or take it slow and easy on an obedient camel.

Visit the Dubai Museum

The Dubai Museum is housed in the Al Fahidi Fort, the city’s oldest edifice, which was built at the beginning of the 1970s as a method to preserve the traditional lifestyle that had prevailed before the city’s astonishing reinvention.
