Sand dunes, a string of camels, skyscrapers, parks, modern trade, luxury of palace hotels and locals who suddenly became millionaires … The mysterious land of the seven Emirates will appear so differently before you.

Dubai is the largest tourist city in all of the United Arab Emirates. Here you can wish anything, any of your whims will be fulfilled with lightning speed!

In desert

A desert safari is one hundred percent way to get a dose of unforgettable experience. Just imagine how a reliable driver behind the wheel of a jeep quickly rushes you through the dunes with steep descents and turns: you seem to become one with a mighty natural element!

After a full hour of this extreme, happy travelers go to the Arabian village, lost in the desert. There they will be immersed in the ancient culture and customs of the village: belly dancing performed by an Arab beauty, camel riding, barbecue by the fire.

What else:

• Boarding from sand dunes;
• Photo session in national costumes;
• Henna painting studio;
• Cooking class under the stars;
• The history of Arabia in dances and costumes.

In water

In winter, Dubai becomes a paradise for tourists: the water temperature here is plus 23 degrees and there is no heat.

All sections of the "Mountain River" tell about Sinbad's journey, so it will be incredibly interesting!

The water slides give an amazing adrenaline rush! There are 28 of them at Wild Wadi Water Park, joined by a waterfall and 23 pools. All the rides are interconnected: first you go up, then roll down somersault, rush somewhere in the darkness, swing on the waves and finally rest calmly in quiet bays. All sections of the "Mountain River" tell about Sinbad's journey, so it will be incredibly interesting!

What else:

• Visit a local restaurant and order wine and seafood there;
• Surf in the pool with artificial waves;
• Descend from a 30-meter slide at a speed of 80 kilometers per hour;
• Make a free massage under the streams of the waterfall;
• Relax in the waters of the Lazy River;
• Relax under the palm trees on the beach.

In the snow

No matter what they say about the excessive artificiality of Dubai, there is everything that any tourist could dream of. Even the ski resort!

Every day, special installations maintain an air temperature of minus 1-4 degrees and create 30 tons of snow. The complete illusion of a winter resort has been created here: white snow, fluffy Christmas trees, lifts, a school for beginners and a 90-meter pipe for snowboarders. And also - a snow park with winter attractions and "space" sledges.

What else:

• Five ski slopes of different difficulty levels;
• 400-meter descent with a cliff;
• Cafe overlooking snowy landscapes;
• Mall of the Emirates with 400 stores, 14 cinemas and a hypermarket.

In SPA

SPA procedures rejuvenate, calm the nerves, remove cellulite and leave a magical scent on the body.

SPA in Dubai are divided into women's and men's zones, which is quite usual for the Arabs. Men most often order tonic procedures, and women - fruit and honey wraps according to unique recipes, sessions "from a hundred illnesses" with Moroccan mud. Such procedures rejuvenate, calm the nerves, remove cellulite and leave a magical scent on the body.

Do not give up the Rasul bath either: after a session with herbs, massage and aromatherapy, even your gait becomes more seductive!

What else:

• Milk baths;
• Cosmetics with diamond dust;
• Moroccan Baths;
• Oxygen hall;
• All kinds of massage.

This is a must see

And finally, the extraordinary and luxurious places in Dubai that we advise you to visit:

Spend the evening in a room with a transparent wall, behind which fish swim slowly.

1. The world famous Parus Hotel has helipads and an underwater restaurant.
2. At Aquaventure Waterpark, vacationers descend, surrounded by sharks, right from the adrenaline slide.
3. Emirates Towers has everything a woman needs: 40 shops, a spa, and a women's floor with reading pillows, yoga mats and more.
4. In Arab shops, be sure to look for a scent for seduction.
5. Purchase a ticket to the "gold class" vip subway carriage and enjoy the surroundings at a speed of 110 kilometers per hour.
6. Dine at Atlantis's underwater restaurant, then spend the evening in a room with a glass wall, behind which fish swim slowly.
7. And if you want to get into the fairy tale "1000 and 1 Nights", stay at the Madinat Jumeirah or Zabeel Saray. Stars like to stay here, and directors from Hollywood make films. Gilded ceilings, soft sofas, walls in arabesques - these are real palaces for an oriental princess!
