Butterfly Garden Entry Ticket in Dubai
The Arab Emirate of Dubai has long been considered the main expert in the question "How to impress the world community?" For a couple of decades, out of the blue in the middle of the desert, a modern metropolis has grown: the tallest skyscrapers in the world, a gigantic and well-equipped airport, mosques that look like palaces, luxury hotels. Against this background, such trifles as a park of flowers could be no longer surprised. Of course, even the flowers on Arabian oil grew the best, despite the surrounding desert and + 45 ° C in the shade. And yet - it is impossible not to be amazed at him. A must visit! We enjoyed it immensely. We visited a fairy tale.

Dubai Frame Ticket
Worth a visit even in times of Covid19. It wasn't busy and the hygiene rules were implemented very well. Before you go up there is a small exhibition with impressions from old Dubai. The view is of course fantastic. After visiting the viewing platform there is again an exhibition with the vision of Dubai in the future. All in all well worth a visit.

Dubai Big Bus Hop-On Hop-Off Tours (Open-Top)
After purchasing a 5-day package, the official website was USD106.2 and KLOOK was only HK$493. The package includes more than 10 local itineraries. You only need to participate in 1 or 2 of them, which is fully worth the fare. I participated in the Dubai River Dhow Cruise, Marina & Island Lagoon Cruise, Half-Day Sharjah Tour, Flamingo Lagoon Visit, Palm Island Tour, Desert Sunset Adventure, Lost Underwater Aquarium, etc.

Burj Khalifa Observation Deck
We managed to visit one of the main attractions of Dubai at sunset. Buy a ticket for 18.30 and you will definitely not go wrong with the price and time. You need to come to LG half an hour before the time. The number of people wishing to visit this place never decreases. The views are breathtaking, and the rapid change of day and night shows the transformation of the city. Be sure to bring windproof clothing. It is piercing here, despite the warm weather below.

The Green Planet Ticket Dubai
Booked a visit to the Green planet in Dubai. I used this service for the first time. The proposed price of $ 46 versus 61 on the official website for 2 adult tickets saved $ 15 (170aed VS 220). At the same time, the voucher does not require exchange at the box office for a ticket, as it turned out. The barcode in the voucher is scanned at the checkout and recognized as the actual ticket. Everything works, and in the most convenient format. I recommend!

5 /5

Highly recommended
Dubai Fountain Lake Ride
The most memorable event in Dubai. The fountains are beautiful. A boat ride around the singing fountains is a must-do in Dubai. An incredible experience when you float on transparent water, in which millions of lights are reflected, and around grandiose majestic buildings, and magnificent dances of fountains. The spectacle is mesmerizing.
