[11/03/2007] The Ski Dubai attraction in Dubai is another one of the Sheikhs attempts to get Dubai on the map as being one of the top tourist areas in the world. This idea was really a case of turning the impossible into possible. As Dubai has all year round sun, beaches etc snow was to be out of the question, although I do remember a few years ago some snow flakes did fall in Dubai. A ski slope in Dubai is unbeleivable but yet a reality. It makes Dubai a place that has everything to offer. The dubai ski dome will also ultimately come in Dubais favour for when they will make a bid for the Olympics because [more]

[11/03/2007] Dubais Wonderland resembles a funfair but much more activity, as you arrive towards it the theme park looks like a giant funfair with balloons, candy, games, rides, children laughing etc. It is located just opposite the Dubai creek and next to Creek Park so you cannot miss it! it has the usual games such as the shooting hoops game to win prizes, throwing bean sacks in order to win a cuddly toy, shooting tin cans, how-strong-are-you meter, they even have activities where you wear a harness and climb up a wall. There are strategy, skill and fun games here. The park is divided into 3 parts, the [more]

perfection!

[09/03/2007] When I went to Dubai I was very fortunate to have stayed in a hotel that was just a 5 minute walk for the Gold Souk. With the intention of maybe buying one piece of gold jewellery I actually ended up buying a whole lot more! GOLD SOUK EXPERIENCE The thing about the Gold Souk is that there are lines and lines of gold shops, the gold in the showcases resembles a candy shop window, from bangles to necklaces the choice is endless. Designs can be traditional or modern, bold or conservative, chunky or delicate if you have it in mind then its definitely on display. You can even have the type o [more]

perfection!

[09/03/2007] The Wonderbus tour is fantastic, especially for children. It looks like a normal bus by any account but shaped like a boat in attractive eye-catching colours of blue and yellow with pictures of dolphins on either side. We saw one when we were out and about, naturally by the shape and the colours my son spotted it first and was very curious to try it out. As he had insisted so much we decided to take him on the Wonderbus experience. Booking the tickets was very easy, which you can do in a number of ways, we booked througth the hotel we were staying at but you can also book online, from the Won [more]

[08/03/2007] Any tourist in Dubai will find this mosque to be the largest and indeed beautiful of all mosques in Dubai. It is built of stone in an ancient Fatimid tradition. The mosque is really magnificent and is best seen at sunset when the entire mosque is lit up and is almost glowing. It is located in Jumeirah on Al Jumeirah Road and over time along with being a place of worship it is also now a major landmark and one that tourists add a must see factor to. Tourists are by far welcome to view the mosque from the outside but non muslims are not permitted to enter, although organised tours are held ever [more]

[02/03/2007] Dubai International Airport was established in 1959 when the late Ruler of Dubai, HH sheikh Rashid bin Saeed Al Maktoum ordered for the construction to commence. The airport has been developed so that it is in the centre of Dubai meaning wherever you may be in Dubai you are always no more than 20 minutes away from the airport. In a short span of time the airport has become one of the top ten recognised and envied airports of the world. When it opened in 1960 it only had the capacity of 9 airlines and served to a mere 20 destinations. But overtime it has grown and expanded so much that it ca [more]

[23/02/2007] Whenever I travel to a new place and especially when I am travelling with my children I love to go to the museum to find out the country in questions background and history. It makes both an informative trip and fun day out for the whole family to enjoy. On our second day in Dubai we went to the Dubai Museum. It is actually based inside the ruins of Al Fahidi Fort. The fort was built in 1787 and has since been restored to such an extent that the countries history and heritage is portrayed beautifully. The fort was opened as a museum in 1971. The museum has a vast array of collections and e [more]
