Entry and documents

Entry requirements depend on your nationality and can change, so confirm current visa guidance before booking. HighEnds can support you through the application process where needed.

Getting around

Dubai's metro, taxis, and ride-hailing apps make it straightforward to get between the older souks and the newer skyline areas. Distances can be larger than they look on a map, so it's worth planning routes in advance.

Weather and timing

Dubai is at its most comfortable for outdoor sightseeing and desert trips in the cooler months. Summer heat is intense, which is worth factoring into your itinerary.

Key things to know

  • Confirm current entry requirements for your nationality before booking.
  • Distances between neighbourhoods can be larger than expected — plan transport in advance.
  • Cooler months are generally easier for outdoor activities.
