Dubai: When to go and what to do

Dubai is in line with any travel destination in the fact that more people travel there when the weather is more favorable. Lets not forget that Dubai is in the Middle East so in the summer it gets HOT! That being said, every building in Dubai is air conditioned, so a successful vacation can be planned around staying indoors.

And there are plenty of indoor activities to keep you busy! How about hitting the slopes at the largest indoor ski resort in the Middle East? Ski Dubai offers an amazing snow setting to enjoy skiing, snowboarding and tobogganing, or just playing in the snow. Young or old, there is something for everyone, from the beginner to the snow sport enthusiast. Ski Dubai is a unique mountain-themed attraction that offers you the opportunity to enjoy real snow in Dubai all year round. The video below is a little lengthy but I think it gives you a good idea of what Ski Dubai is all about.


If swooshing down the slopes is not your idea of a good indoor activity, there is always shopping!! Check out the Mall of the Emirates (known as "Moe's" to UAE residents). The mall covers 223,000 square meters & is home to over 400 retailers, a 14-screen movie theater and 65 restaurants and coffee shops with everything from fast food to themed restaurants & exclusive dining alternatives. Be sure to wear your comfortable walking shoes, but even if you forget I'm sure you can buy a pair there!

You can also spend an air conditioned day at the Dubai Museum learning about the t
raditional way of life in the Emirate of Dubai.
