DESTINATION GUIDE · DUBAI
See another side of Dubai: a journey that gives its heritage districts as much attention as its skyline.
Plan my Dubai holiday ↗GET TO KNOW DUBAI
Along Dubai Creek, Al Fahidi preserves a sense of the city’s nineteenth-century life. Its wind towers and shaded lanes offer a different perspective from the modern skyline.
Build time for a heritage walk and a conversation about Emirati traditions. The Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Centre for Cultural Understanding is one place to explore local customs and hospitality.
YOUR DUBAI SHORTLIST
Make space for the skyline you came to see. Choose your preferred viewpoint and agree ticketed experiences in your quotation.
Explore the waterfront and make a heritage-focused outing part of your stay. Leave time to enjoy the city at a different pace.
Consider a desert excursion as an optional experience. Ask about the activity level, transport and suitability for your group before booking.
A heritage walk can add context to a short city break. Check opening arrangements for individual venues before visiting.
Choose shopping, an attraction, waterfront time or a relaxed day rather than squeezing everything into one visit.
