For a luxury beach break destination, Dubai really has it all, but with so many airlines now flying to Dubai and plenty of hotels to choose from, it also doesn't have to break the bank.
Even travelling last minute, flights around the £300-350 mark can often be found. When you arrive, and drive down Sheikh Zayed Road, the sheer scale of the buildings will astound you. And with it's pristine beaches, great shopping, extreme attractions and waterparks, you will be kept busy.
Be sure to enjoy a desert safari, that takes you out into the desert to experience a bedouin camp, camel riding, sandboarding and much more.




Dubai is served by three airports, including Abu Dhabi airport, about an hour's drive from the south of Dubai. Public transport isn't anywhere near as developed as cities like London or New York, however, there are still options available.
Taxis can be very cheap and is a good way around the city, even if you are on a budget, however traffic along the main Sheikh Zayed highway that runs from north to south through Dubai can be pretty hectic at peak times. The monorail offers fast and efficient transport as well, however, the lines are somewhat limited.
