It was excellent. I recommend to book a safari. There are a lot of cheap ones with everything included. Recommend visiting Burj Khalifa of course and Dubai Mall. Also the aquarium in the mall is amazing. The amazing infinity pool at Aura. Beef bar has excellent food to order but also this Korean restaurant right next to the fountains is top.
Posted: January 26, 2025It wasn't good for me; it was too hot and not safe. But the food was good. The hotel was scary, and I couldn't go out because of the hot weather. I went to the cinema and watched "The Dancing River." I did a lot of shopping. I went there with my friend.

In 2023 was my first solo trip to Dubai, I didn’t really fully enjoy. I figured it’s probably because I didn’t make friends. I felt so lonely. So I thought I should give it a try again this year. And I’m hoping to make friends

Dubai is an awesome place for any kind of vacation. And I enjoyed my stay there. It was amazing and the people I met were very friendly. I felt very safe throughout my entire stay I used the train and thier Uber for transportation The food wasn’t any much different as I stuck to KFC mostly
Posted: July 6, 2024Dubai is an amazing place to visit if you have money to splurge. Best time to visit This place is September to February. This city is all about creativity uniqueness and aesthetics. Your gallery can be full with pictures of these monuments and Backdrops.

It was very safe, not very cultural. Good for a city trip and for going out. If you like to do cultural things I would not spend a lot days here. It’s good for like a long weekend trip. For a woman on your own a bit boring maybe:
Posted: June 6, 2024It was such an awesome stay. I made so many friends from different Nationalities. Had a chance to visit Buj Khalifa , the tallest building. Was introduced to Property Management. And this is my future goal.

Dubai is a very beautiful place, 100% safe you can walk on the streets even at 2am. The food is so so good, with a-lot of cuisine choose from;I was actually spoilt for choice. Being a cosmopolitan city, you can enjoy a diverse range of cultures, languages, and food. The beaches are clean and very safe, with a good breeze and nice waves. The public transport is great, the bus and metro very functional and operate until midnight. Taxis are also available, but if you would like to save a few coins, hop onto the metro! For ladies, there is free alcohol for ladies on ladies nights..just check up the clubs offering free drinks for ladies! I had a blast with lots of free wine! However, during the winter months, November, December, January and February, it can get cold, especially at night.

For the most part, I felt safe.... There are many activities, depends on budget and personal preference. However in hot summer-months might be somewhat limited, because it gets hot for outdoor activities... Restaurants are mostly clean, the prices are ok to expensive...you can find restaurants, snack bars and fast food chains everywhere..... You can get rid of the budget quickly.... I stayed in Hostel... I used mostly Metro, sometimes Taxi, i walked also a lot...i used Google Maps to find spots
Posted: April 7, 2024Experienced: January, 2024I felt safe in Dubai, I could walk at 2am and still feel safe. I stayed there for 2 months apt is expensive if I want a good location. Food is good but I liked the food in sharjah better as it was more authentic. I did a few activities through viator and facebook. So met some cool people.

Very safe! It is one of the only places in the world where you can walk alone at night without overthinking. I'd, however, recommend being a bit careful staying in the non-main areas of Dubai like Nahda, Deira, etc, where catcalling could be a little bit of an issue.
Posted: January 16, 2025Dubai is very safe, and walking around at 3 am poses no problem even if you’re alone. In certain areas you can even leave your valuable belongings unattended and you’d come back to find them untouched. There are specific areas (industrial areas generally) that can make you feel a bit comfortable walking around them at night, mainly due to the sheer number of men walking around, but none would actually dare to cross your path, it’s just the general discomfort we normally experience around a large number of men in one place. I’d say Dubai and UAE in general is by far the safest place I’ve been to.
