Why people love Dubai

Highly recommended
Dubai City Tour & Evening Desert Safari with BBQ Dinner
We has a terrific experience booking through Klook for city tour and desert safari. They were punctual in service and had sent extremely friendly and helpful guides. Asim our guide for the city tour was very knowledgeable and had explained about each location and monuments in detail. It was a pleasure to have travelled with him to see the important sights in Dubai. This city tour covered all the must see locations in Dubai in a private car, and we had comfortable and timely hotel pick up and drop. In the evening we had Asif who guided us through the desert safari and dinner. Asif is extremely talented, he took us dune bashing - and this experience was never like anything that we had seen before. He had spotted greater locations for taking photos and guided us through dinner and the evening activities like the quad biking, camel ride, fire show and belly dance. We enjoyed this thoroughly. Thanks to Klook for making the booking so easy!

Premium Evening Red-Dunes Desert Safari from Dubai
Our best day out on our holiday to Dubai with a great mixture of quad biking, camel riding, sand surfing and our mad driver on the sand dunes. Food was good as well but because there weren't many people at the camp the entertainment was a little flat. We booked the quad biking when we got there which proved to be much more expensive so buy a package with it included.

Dubai Helicopter Tour
I liked the flight very much. Let it be only 12 minutes, but that was enough. First, they gave instructions, weighed each passenger, and handed out life jackets. Then we went to the helicopter, sat down and flew. There were 5 passengers and a pilot in the cockpit. They put headphones on everyone. They were allowed to shoot on the phone, provided that the phone was switched to airplane mode. Take all the beauty out of Dubai. Skyscrapers, palm jumeirah, beaches along the coast - everything was visible at a glance. I recommend to everyone

Atlantis, Palm Jumeirah, Burj Al Arab & Dubai Marina Boat Sightseeing Tour
It was a wonderful trip. Dubai is specially beautiful from water. You will not get a better chance to come close not only to the finest hotels in the world but even to the private residences of the ruler of the country, Mr. Al Makhtoum and his pet tigers. Thanks to the skipper William for a smooth journey and to Jian for the interesting facts and the pictures and the water.

Ski Dubai
As much as I find Dubai attractions generally overrated and overpriced, this was an exception. I had a premium ticket which is almost 100 usd (and nearly 40 usd cheaper than at the venue) but if you can afford it, it’s totally worth it. You get unlimited skiing or snowboarding (perfect for beginners and intermediate; advanced skiers might quickly get bored, even though they have a “black” run) or a lesson, all equipment, access to all fun rides, a good meal (you chose from the menu), waterproof gloves, hand warmers , hot chocolate, locker, one printed photo (for all of these you pay extra otherwise and they charge a lot), and penguin encounter (mine lasted almost one hour). You can easily spend there a whole day. Bring you own hat and put on some layers, jackets aren’t very warm.
