Best way to get around
In Dubai, you can opt for travelling through the metro, cabs, water taxis called abras or the bus. To enjoy round trips in the buses or metro opting for a Nol card is the smartest option available. It can be recharged and used as per your convenience depending on your location. Walking is another option but not a smart choice in Dubai, you do not want to get run over by a Lamborghini.
We have put together some of the must visits on your trip to Dubai and made up an itinerary so that you don’t miss out on a spot.

What better way to kick start your day than standing at the observation deck on level 124 of the mighty Burj Khalifa, viewing the astonishing architecture and skyscrapers that stretch as far as the horizon.

AFTERNOON
The scorching heat makes it ideal to stay indoors during the afternoons. A wide range of shopping brands in The Dubai Mall makes shopping more of an effort rather than a remedy but a shopaholic would never complain. With over 150 eating places to choose from and worldwide cuisines like American fast food, Arabic, Lebanese, Chinese, Oriental and more, your taste buds would have a good time relishing all the dishes. That’s not all the mall has to offer though; you can easily spend hours not getting fatigued by the gigantic Dubai Aquarium and the Underwater Zoo, Indoor theme park, Ice ring and an indoor waterfall.
