My visit to Dubai a few years ago was one of my most surprising trips. Dubai, which aims to become the tourism capital of the world, has quickly become a fashionable destination. Its tourism growth is impressive, going from 9 million tourists in 2011 to 11 million in 2013 and is targeting more than 25 million for 2020. This city leaves no one indifferent. Despised by some, admired by others, Dubai is full of surprising activities. After my article on visiting Dubai here is a top 5 of the activities to do in Dubai.
The essential Burj Khalifa
Burj Khalifa is, without a doubt, the most popular attraction of a stay in Dubai. Indeed it is possible to climb to the 124th or 148th floor of the tallest tower in the world. From there you will have a breathtaking view of Dubai but also of these artificial islands, The World. You will also take a passage by the fastest elevator in the world.
Dubai in the air
Dubai cannot be visited only on land, the city can also be visited from the sky. Indeed it is possible to discover the city by helicopter or even in a hot air balloon. You will fly over the city, its buildings but also its artificial islands. I invite you to go to sites such as www.getyourguide.fr which offers a wide choice of activities.
Desert excursion
Dubai’s proximity to the desert allows you to perform many unusual activities. Experience the Dubai Desert your way. By camel, 4 × 4 or quad, the desert will be a real playground. You will have the opportunity to contemplate the sunset in the middle of the sand dunes of the desert. Guaranteed show.
Water activities in Dubai
Besides the desert and the sky, it is the sea that you can enjoy during a stay in Dubai. Indeed, water activities are numerous in Dubai, water skiing, jet skiing, yacht cruising or snorkeling, you will be spoiled for choice.
Skiing in Dubai
Last unusual activity in Dubai and not least, skiing. Indeed it is possible to ski in Dubai inside the Mall of the Emirates. A huge covered ski slope awaits you, in the middle of the desert.
