Dubai is the most swarmed and the greatest city in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). It is organized on the southeast bank of the Persian Gulf and is the capital of the Emirate of Dubai, one of the seven emirates that make up the country. The city of Dubai is organized on the emirate's northern coastline and heads the Dubai-Sharjah-Ajman metropolitan district. The emirate of Dubai offers edges to Abu Dhabi in the south, Sharjah in the upper east, and the Sultanate of Oman in the southeast.

Taxi is the fastest and most comfortable transport means to travel between airport and any venue in city. Dubai airport taxi drivers will serve you at any time of the day, bring you straight to your hotel and help you with your luggage.

Tourist places in Dubai

Burj Khalifa : The Burj Khalifa is the tallest building in the world and a global icon. Truly a feat of engineering, the building represents the conceptual heart and soul of the city of Dubai. At 828m tall, this magnificent structure is located next to The Dubai Mall and has drawn visitors from all over the world since opening in 2010. 

Mall of the Emirates: Home to a ski slope, cinema complex and 560 shops and boutiques, a visit to the Mall of the Emirates is a must-see on any trip to Dubai.

Deep Dive Dubai: The latest addition to the city's thriving sports and adventure activities scene, Deep Dive Dubai is the place to be for all aqua enthusiasts. Opened in July 2021, the recreational centre's 60.02m-deep pool is certified by Guinness World Records as the world's deepest swimming pool for diving. Aside from its remarkable depth, the pool features other unrivalled underwater additions, such as a 'sunken city'; with its abandoned urban streetscape, divers can explore this modern Atlantis-like immersive zone and discover intricate details.

Zuma: If you're a fan of Japanese food, Zuma is a trendy favourite among DIFC's after-work crowd and is considered to be one of the very best restaurants in Dubai.
