The United Arab Emirates is a playground of opulence where futuristic cities meet timeless desert luxury. Cruise the Arabian Gulf on a private yacht or soar above Dubai in a helicopter tour. Blend culture and indulgence in Abu Dhabi with private tours of grand mosques, camel trekking, and desert glamping experiences. Escape to the tranquil dunes of Qasr Al Sarab or the serene beaches of Saadiyat Island, where every moment is curated for comfort and class. Whether it’s high-end shopping, stays at the world’s top luxury hotels, or adrenaline-fueled adventures wrapped in 5+ star service, the UAE is where grandeur comes alive.
Although the city is modern, it is suggested that travelers pack modest clothes. Clothes can be fashion-forward and dressy but be aware of the country’s cultural values and beliefs.
The official currency of Dubai is UAE Dirham. Speak to your Brownell specialist for advice on obtaining the correct currency on-site and to get information on other customs, such as tipping.
In Dubai, a wide range of customs varies slightly from the everyday life of other destinations. In Dubai, public displays of affection are not allowed. Along similar lines, swearing in public will result in warnings or time behind bars. Dubai is modern, but there are still cultural values toward women. Women are respected, but customs such as avoiding the shaking of hands are the norm.
