Desert coastline, glass towers and a very good airport

About Dubai

Dubai works as a long weekend and as a stopover. The city is compact along the coast, the metro covers most of what visitors want, and flights arrive from almost everywhere — which is why fares here are among the most competitive in the region.

Best time to visit

November to March, when daytime temperatures sit in the mid-20s °C. July and August are very hot but hotel rates fall sharply.
