I will be going to Dubai on holiday for the third time next year. Dubai has grown out of the desert in just over 50 years from a small fishing town. The size and architecture of buildings is awesome. There is a lot of up market hotels and resorts and very little budget accommodation. The old town is worth a look as is the gold souk. There are massive shopping malls, good beaches and excellent food. Alcohol is only available in hotels and some restaurants, you cannot buy it at the supermarket at all.

A new mono rail system is in the making but taxis remain the best way of getting around. There are a lot of sporting opportunities from golf to camel racing. I like scuba diving but would not recommend it anywhere of the coast of Dubai. There are loads of opportunities to get out into the desert in four wheel drives for various activities.

Crime is very low and don't forget this is a muslim country with strictly enforced decency laws.

Hope you have a great time
