I 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.

Dubai is very safe for women in general. I recommend traveling here even if you're solo. The public beaches aren't the perfect place tho. Some people stare at you awkwardly when you're in a bikini. So maybe you can try private beach clubs or sth

This city is ABSOLUTELY amazing! I was traveling solo and I really felt safe there. Though it was quite expensive, it's totally worth it! It's like a mini-Europe type of city with skyscrappers, and beautiful places to see! I totally recommend visiting it.
Posted: January 31, 2024Experienced: October, 2023First time in Dubai during the summer - Encountered no safety problems or language barriers, everyone extremely friendly with a large expat population - Never ran out of things to do on a 10 day trip, highly recommend 1-2 days out to Abu Dhabi if time permits - Dubai is a generally expensive city, but you can cut costs by going in the low season (the summer) like I did. Be aware that it will mean going out to the beaches in the day virtually impossible as most of our outings were indoors
Posted: December 18, 2023Here in duabi as a female solo I felt pretty safe almost everywhere, I recommend it for sure as Tourism if you like the city life. If u're coming to work like I did just be prepared to start gradually & as well do ur research

I had a great trip to Dubai recently. I have visited many times before but for this trip I was here for COP28 and to try different foods. I felt very safe in Dubai as a woman and protected - there’s lots of security and police around and people to help. I stayed in an Airbnb close to the metro station which was convenient to get around easily. The food varies from place to place dependent on your budget but overall there are strong safety standards for food and quality. The local Emirati people have been so friendly and hospitable and it was a fantastic experience this time. I would recommend Dubai for anyone regardless of budget.
Posted: December 11, 2023Experienced: December, 2023I went on a girls' trip last month with my sisters to Dubai, it was pretty nice, we had a lot of fun, there are lots of activities and it's pretty safe for women even at night, we stayed at the canal business hotel and used the Careem app to get around the city. I would recommend preparing a fairly large budget because most of the activities are quite expensive.
Posted: December 10, 2023Experienced: October, 2023Dubai is really a lovely place for a vacation. It took me a few days to get used to the heat, but despite that, I enjoyed my stay. I first stayed at First Collection JVC, and then moved with friends to the Rove Hotel, around the Marina axis, to have access to all the entertainment places. The food was fine, and the view from my hotel room was extraordinary. Jet skiing, shooting range, and desert safari were my favorite attractions. I will definitely visit this place again.

What can I say about Dubai? The most amazing city in the world! I felt safe and I used to take night walks along Dubai Marina Walk alone. It was so beautiful and I cannot wait to go back soon. Do no skip a boat ride in Dubai Marina. As cheap as AED 100 for 2 hours.
Posted: November 10, 2023Experienced: November, 2017I live in Dubai and honestly, as a woman, I love this place, we are very respected here. There are people who stare, but you know you are safe. Even when I go to a party, I never have problems with catching a taxi, drinking alcohol or wearing whatever I want.
Posted: October 1, 2023We have a metro system that runs along the main road cutting through the city (Sheikh Zayed Road). The suburb where the Museum of the Future is located is primarily a business district. We are not a city where a lot of walking is done, but improvements are beginning to appear in this regard, for example, pedestrian paths. I would recommend accommodation in Downtown, Marina or Palm (although the city center is literally two metro stations from the museum). Taxis are also ridiculously cheap.
