    My family and I visited the Burj Khalifa in July 2023, and it was an absolute highlight of our Dubai trip. The view from the top was mesmerizing, and the staff's professionalism and hospitality made the experience even more memorable. A must-visit for anyone in Dubai!

    The day we went was not crowded.
    Thus, easier to move around and get to play the rides multiple time.
    We decided to sign up for the discovery ski school.
    It was so much fun.
    The instructor, Kumar, was so patience and helpful.
    He always ensure our safety and importantly we have fun.

    I was worried due to all the negative comments but we really enjoyed our day. I don't think it's worth full price but with "kids go free" it made it worthwhile. We have kids 8, 5 and 3. They loved it all! We thought it was a beautiful park and amazing how so much of it is in AC'd buildings. By the end of the day our feet were fine and we didn't feel sick from heat exhaustian at all. Best part was absolutely no lines this time of the year. All of the rides we wanted to go on were fully functional... no issues or delay at all. My 3 year old could have gone on many rides they deemed him too small for but we still easily made it work around that taking him elsewhere and turns with the other kids. Found a taxi no problem at the end of our day. We went from around 12 to 5:30 ... did all the rides appropriate for our kids ages and all the little play places were so different and great too.

    Went desert cycling with 3 other friends. We rented bikes at the trek bicycle store . Staff are well informed and helpful. Bring enough water for the track. The views of the desert and little wildlife are breathtaking. I recommend to bring a friend as it’s a long way and no human settlements there.

    I was in town for a short visit during National Day weekend and was looking for a unique local activity. Overjoyed the timing worked out when the camels were racing. More camels than you could count and endless photo opportunities.

    Deprioritize the endless malls and touristy activities and make a trip out to the complex...it's such a unique regional experience.

    Easily accessible via Uber (or rental car) from the city and free entry and parking. I highly recommend a visit.

    We tried the Impossible Mission room. The clues were very interesting and all of us had a great time. Martin is a very good game master. He was very friendly and ensured we had a fabulous experience. Highly recommend Phobia and we will visit again
