Ramadan in Dubai

I once spent 22 hours in Dubai on a long layover. There was just enough time to check into an airport hotel and head out for a desert safari, which involved dune bashing, a belly dancing display and a meal in the desert. I was dead tired and it was quite a cold, touristy experience, so I didn’t really get a great impression of the destination. However, so many people I’ve spoken to who have either visited or lived in Dubai absolutely LOVE it, so when I was invited to join a group of media for a trip to Dubai with Dubai Tourism during Ramadan, I jumped at the opportunity.

I’ll be exploring some of Dubai’s icons while experiencing the festivities of the Holy Month, Ramadan.

Follow me on Twitter and Instagram as I explore Dubai from the 5th to the 9th of July. Here are a few highlights from my itinerary that I’m really looking forward to:

1. Dubai Mall

2. Atlantis The Palm

3. Atmosphere at Burj Khalifa

4. Seawings Flight over Dubai

5. Ajmal Perfumes

6. Dubai Coffee Museum

7. Dubai Ramadan Night Market

8. Dubai Souk
