A once sleepy port on the coast of the Arabian Gulf, Dubai is now a world-famous holiday destination, not to mention, one of my all time favourite cities. There is such a variety of things to do here, but the many tourist traps ensure that it is not the easiest place to navigate (without some guidance). Despite being voted Tripadvisor's "Top Destination" for the third year in a row, I still meet people who tell me that they have only seen the inside of the malls and their resort. But don't worry! I'm here to save you from that limited experience. Especially because you've probably travelled quite far to get there. I grew up in the UAE as a child and I moved back there in my twenties, so I feel I know Dubai like the back of my hand. I love bringing people to this part of the Middle East and showing them that there is so much more than shopping, luxury hotels and private beaches. And even better, it's not really an expensive destination...! Below you'll find an introduction to this ever-evolving city as I walk you through the areas you are going to want to see and the activities you just cannot miss! Here is my honest guide to Dubai.

Grab your towel and leave your sunscreen at home! As summer heats up, Dubai's pools sparkle with cool evening dips. From rooftop pools with breathtaking views to beautiful beaches, here’s everything you need to know.

The UAE is becoming the main transit hub between Europe and East. This is such a perfect opportunity to explore here! I have lived in Dubai for two years and found the beauty of this place (despite the hell of summer) in its people and diverse culture. People from hundreds of nationalities are jointly living in this country bringing their cultures, their food, their stories. All this joined together with typical Arab hospitality culture. Look beyond touristic attractions (that are in this guide, because they are pretty cool). Enjoy the food, enjoy the people. Oh, ENJOY NATURE! There are pretty amazing hikes. Some of them are very dangerous. I provide in the guide the contact of my favourite guide and friend. I hope you will enjoy!

Abu Dhabi has embraced its pet-loving side, with not just parks and scenic walks, but also restaurants and pet spas. So, pack treats and toys and explore. Both you and your furry friend are in for a fantastic time—and you might even meet new friends for future playdates.
