LOCA-guiden til oplevelser i Dubai
Dubai packs desert, sea, culture and the world's tallest skyline into one city, and the UAE's other emirates are an hour away. Best time to visit: October to April brings pleasant weather for the desert and beaches; summer means low hotel prices and indoor attractions.
Top picks for first-timers: a sunset desert safari, At the Top at Burj Khalifa, an abra ride across Dubai Creek and the old souks, a yacht cruise along the Marina, and a day trip to the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque and Louvre Abu Dhabi.
Beyond Dubai: Jebel Jais in Ras Al Khaimah has the world's longest zipline, Fujairah has the best snorkelling, and Sharjah holds the best museums. Every experience on LOCA is run by a licensed operator, and our team checks prices and reviews before listing.
