Flights to Dubai

Try and get a seat by the window for your flights to Dubai. As the plane descends, you'll want to see the sheer scale of the city's dramatic sprawl along the coastline, which is just as impressive as its skyline. In little more than 40 years, this city has transformed itself from a tiny settlement to a glittering metropolis and world-class destination.

While Dubai's startling feats of engineering, such as the Burj Khalifa, the Palm islands, Burj Al Arab, and the Dubai Mall, are the jewels in its crown, the city’s multifaceted appeal extends beyond its architecture. Some people are attracted to the buzz of the place; it has the frenetic pace and energy of a global business city and tourism hub. However, you might prefer the tranquility of its desert retreats, golf courses, calm seas, and beaches.

Beyond clusters of gleaming five-star hotels, with their luxury suites and infinity pools, there's a historic side to the city too. Visit Al Fahidi Historical District (formerly known as Bastakiya) to see traditional Arabic architecture, then tour the Heritage and Diving Villages of Shindagha.

Visiting Dubai is largely about consumption; one of the most popular activities here is shopping. As well as record-breaking malls packed with designer names, there are traditional souks and vibrant markets. And while Michelin-starred celebrity chefs have embraced Dubai’s high-end culinary scene, there are still scores of independent restaurants with authentic flavors to explore.

It all adds up to a city of contrasts, and there's nowhere better to witness Dubai's diversity than the Dubai Creek. Here, traditional abras cross the waters, and dhows unload their cargo beneath shimmering skyscrapers. 

The latter will have air-conditioned shopping streets, a theme park, and a healthcare district. It almost sounds too good to be true, but given Dubai's already incredible rise, you wouldn't want to bet against it.

Where to eat in Dubai

Yuan (Chinese)

This classy Chinese restaurant serves Szechuan cuisine in the heart of one of the most famous hotels in the world. The main room is open and showy—definitely a place to be seen—with tall, throne-like chairs and stunningly ornate ceiling sculptures. Don’t miss the deep-fried tiger prawns.

Creekside (Middle Eastern)

Sitting on the cobbles outside Creekside is a throwback to a time when the nearby souks were the closest you could get to a mall in Dubai. You can enjoy the local cuisine with a modern twist while watching traditional dhow boats ferry goods and people across the creek.

Salt (Burgers)

Salt founded Dubai’s food truck scene. Serving sumptuous wagyu sliders out the back of a retro Airstream trailer, the team initially used Instagram to inform hungry diners an hour in advance where they would be selling a limited number of burgers. But success has seen them take up permanent residence on Kite Beach.

Places to stay in Dubai

XVA Art Hotel

With its modern Arabian style and comfortable rooms, this is an excellent boutique option in an area that is also home to the Dubai Mall and Burj Khalifa. While you’ll never be short of restaurant options nearby, Vida’s Sydney-born Toko eatery is well regarded for its contemporary Japanese food.

Anantara Dubai The Palm Resort & Spa

Heading out to The Palm Jumeirah, Dubai’s manmade, palm tree–shaped archipelago, is an experience in itself, but staying at this luxurious hotel on the eastern section of the archipelago is the icing on the cake. Expect white sandy beaches, a huge infinity pool and three lagoon pools, superb restaurants, and the only over-water villas in the UAE.
