Hi @Venkatadilip ,

Thanks for the question!

I’m planning to visit Dubai too, I think it’s one of the most interesting places, the desert and the metropolis next to each other.

I’d like to recommend you to read @MoniDi 's post A weekend trip to Dubai, and she might share some more details here.

Hey @Venkatadilip ,

Thanks for asking. It’s great that you want to visit Dubai! I would recommend you to go between February and April when the weather is nice but not boiling hot. Depending on what you would like to see, I think three to five days is enough to visit the most famous places like Burj Khalifa, the Miracle Garden and Burj Al Arab. Don’t forget that there are various activities and attractions in the desert, so definitely book a desert safari. My experience there was one of the most memorable moments from the whole trip.

A quick tip, try to book a hotel close to Downtown Dubai so that you are close to the Mall and most of the tourist attractions.

@Petra_M , thanks for the tag and do let me know if you want some advice when you are planing your trip to Dubai. :slightly_smiling_face:
