The Dubai Fountain

If you want to avoid heat and crowds and still get a good view of the water show, head to Time Out Mall and watch from there for free!

AURA SKYPOOL Dubai
@bexpassport
Spoil yourself here! Cool down with this beautiful infinity pool (this was one of the few pools which we found to be actually cool and not warm). The view is amazing and you can get a 360 view of the city.

Operation: Falafel

Best falafel in Dubai! We ordered this delivered to our hotel via Careem (local Uber eats). Try their manoush as well if you like Lebanese pizza!
