Visiting Dubai, the easy way
Where to stay, what to do and how to get around — practical help for first-timers and returning visitors, with apartments that give you more space than a hotel. We're building this out now; here's what's coming.
Your guide to visiting Dubai
Where to stay in Dubai
The best areas for a visit — Marina and JBR for the beach and buzz, Creek Beach for calm and the skyline view — and which suits your trip.
Things to do
The headline sights and the local favourites — beaches, the Marina Walk and malls, days out, and what's worth your time on a short visit.
Getting around
Metro, tram, taxis and the airport run — how to move around Dubai without overpaying or overthinking it.
Travelling as a family
Space, a kitchen and a pool beat a cramped hotel room — how an apartment makes a family trip calmer, and the family-friendly areas.
When to visit
Seasons, weather and the best times of year for beaches, sightseeing and value — so you book the right month.
Why an apartment beats a hotel
More room, your own kitchen and laundry, a great address for less — and a direct-booking discount on longer stays.
Placeholder — the Tourist Hub is being built for visitors and holidaymakers. Articles under each topic are on the way.
