    Review of: Burj Khalifa
    World Tallest Building
    the world’s tallest building, with its amazing shape, will wow you from the inside out, The views are absolutely amazing, some people would say that the experience is not wow, however, if have never been to the 130th floor of a building, you must do it at the famous Burj Khalifa, and the Famous Dubai fountain is also not far away from the Big tower, I had an amazing day when I visited both of them

    Review of: The Dubai Fountain
    Boardwalk the best place to view...
    We spent about £15 on a third party website (Headout I think) after doing the little wooden boats in the water for years and found this to be the best way to listen and watch. The Lady Gaga Star is Born song was the best ones I have seen in over 10 years :) Beatiful, but watch as you can get sprayed...

    Review of: Dubai Miracle Garden
    Miraculous Gardens !
    Had a few hours before heading to the airport and decided to visit the Miracle Gardens. I was glad I made the effort to visit this place. Beautiful flowers and sculptures covered in flowers. Amazing place especially in a desert area.
    If you are ever in Dubai and have an hour or 2, this is a worthwhile visit especially if you like flowers.

    Review of: Global Village
    A small Dubai Expo
    Watch out for their hours, the bus drivers to Global Village knows the opening and closing dates better than the website.
    This is a welcoming place for forgieners, like a Disneyland with nationalities. But I went to the Dubai Expo also which was a lot bigger. Each nationalities has stalls were you can view and buy wares, in certain times you can view dance/singing shows

    Review of: Burj Al Arab
    Best 23rd Birthday
    I’m just now about to check out from my two day experience at the Burj Al Arab for my 23rd birthday! My family and I are expats here and I was able to come back to the Burj Al Arab after my 12th birthday about 11 years ago, where I had the best time as a young teen! My experience 11 years ago brought be back and created new memories past two days where everyone here has been able to make it the best birthday that I could’ve experienced this far! All the Butler‘s were phenomenal but I do want to point out that Omar went above and beyond to make it truly a birthday that I will always remember!! Thank you to the whole team and a special thank you to Omar! I included a few photos from back then but also from the past two days. Top 2 photos are in 2013, and bottom 2 are from 2022.

    Review of: Ski Dubai
    Nice
    The place is beautiful and the experience is fun.. Tickets are very expensive.. If there were more games, i will give them 5 stars .. The place is kind of crowded.. Bring cash with you because there is a cafe inside the snow

    Review of: Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo
    Good experience
    Friendly staff, very clean and overall a great experience. Unfortunately we arrived at 19:00 and although we paid for the ultimate experience we didn’t get to see the all the penguins.
    Maybe it would be a good idea to be able to choose which experience you would like to do and not be offered just a full option and an option just without the glass boat tour.

    Overall would recommend.

    Review of: Mall of the Emirates
    Snow!
    One of our party had never seen snow, so having a look at ski Dubai was a must. As the outside temperatures were in the mid 40's, the slopes were crowded with kids, so we did not try to ski. The mall has a wide range of stores and prices. For luxury goods, we prefer Dubai Mall but there are some stores that we like are only found here like Calzedonia.

    Behind the Scenes
    Had the privilege of visiting behind the scene of the Lost Chambers Aquarium at the Atlantis. Very impressed by our guide Dans knowledge and the continued breeding program of the exhibits and making improvements to our Oceans Creatures around the world for a better future for then to survive

    A Good Family Outing
    After reviewing the major waterparks Dubai has to offer, selected Wild Wadi. It was a pleasant experience.

    Huge water park with considerable rides.
    Large pools for the kids.
    Spacious seating places near the rides.
    Full day fun activity with the family.
    Attentive and responsible Lifeguards.
    Tasty Food (although slightly overpriced).
    Negatives:
    Average sized changing areas; often overcrowded.
    Very less changing rooms in comparison to the visitor influx.
    Exorbitantly priced shop for small essentials like slippers or towels.
