Dubai Travel Guides

Dubai is known as the 'city of dreams', and it really has made dreams come true. It is flashy, fun and slightly surreal. Renowned for its miles of white sand, guaranteed sun and spectacular shopping, it is hard to imagine that this metropolis was once just a quiet little sea port in a land of desert.

Some call it crazy, others ingenious. Dubai's ruling family really have made their dreams come true. They've created vast artificial islands with hundreds of kilometres of new beachfront. They've built some of the most luxurious hotels and resorts the world has ever seen, but they are not content with that. They are now set to open underwater hotels, the tallest buildings in the world, shopping malls large enough to keep even Posh Spice occupied for weeks and the largest theme park the world has ever seen.
