    Dorcas looked amazingly after us in the waterpark. Dolphins encounter was a super nice adventure as well. Looking forward coming back soon.

    We visited on a Saturday morning and had a great experience. We queued for about ten minutes for the lift but after this it was all pretty swift with the rest of the experience.

    The lift journey (was quite cramped) but was pretty spectacular, lifting you to floor 124 in approximately a minute.

    Once at the top, the views are amazing and give you a sense of just how far Dubai has come in such a short space of time. I would love to come back in a few years and do this again to see how much it has changed.

    The observation decks were spacious and you never felt like you couldn’t get close to the windows for a great view. Yes, sometimes you might need to wait for certain areas but nothing excessive.

    For me, no first visit to Dubai would be complete without a trip to the Burj Khalifa. The engineering and design make this a modern global icon.

    The Dubai fountain show in Burj Khalifa is a must see attraction. I’ve been there a couple of times already and I enjoy it everytime. The show runs every 30mins in the evening with different songs/music. It’s best to watch it at night in a lake ride and at the bridge walk.

    Huge mall but expensive - not too many places to eat and no great food court as in most malls anywhere. Cafes and restaurants are scattered around Starbucks has 8 - eight! venues. There are lots of Concierges who are available to direct you to whatever store or attraction you want - but be prepared to walk and walk and walk… On the ground floor of course is the entrance to the Burj Khalifa - check with one of the concierges who are near the check in counter before you line up in the wrong line and waste a lot of time before you are told which line to get in depending on what ticket you buy - Premium ticket is by far the best. I was surprised that the mall had many of the mainline stores from other countries such as in UK and Canada and the States. Make sure you get a mall directory brochure - that really helped us find our way around. Also, most taxis aren’t allowed to drop off in front of the mall - so you have to make sure to get the right taxi - we got left outside a hotel initially and didn’t know to make sure the driver wasn’t just dumping us off. Didn’t happen twice!

    It was a fun experience. We loved the Underwater Zoo, and the tunnel in the Aquarium, even though I expected the Aquarium to be a bit bigger.

    Burj Al Arab is an incredible hotel and a true symbol of Dubai. The design is unique, and the level of luxury is amazing. From the moment you arrive, the service is excellent, and everything feels exclusive.

    The interior is beautifully decorated with gold and marble, and the views of the sea and city are breathtaking. The restaurants offer delicious food, and the atmosphere is perfect for a special experience.

    Even if you don’t stay at the hotel, visiting for afternoon tea or dinner is worth it. A must-visit place in Dubai!

    Impressive!! Wow what a wonderful place to spend a couple of hours having the sun touch your skin and the smell of the flowers rich your heart !!
    What I did not like is the little shops in it and that the little canteens were pricy.

    Global village is good and not so good

    Ambience excellent
    Lighting at night excellent
    Facia of pavilions excellent
    Food court. Very good
    Goods inside country pavilions. Just ordinary with not much of variety
    Yet go Go

    Still worth a visit by any count

    Dubai Creek is a vibrant and fascinating part of the city. Riding an abra across the creek is a must-do. It's also both affordable and charming.

    Went to this mall for sightseeing. Very busy but well organised. Popped into Carrefour to pick up some gifts. Also had bubble tea which was very good.

    When we miss the snow, we love visiting this spot! Riding the cable car and spending time in the snow is always a joy. However, we can only stay for about 30 minutes because it gets super cold! It’s a fun escape that always brings a smile. ❄️🚡

    The lost chambers are amazing not only the size of the aquariums themselfs but also the design of the whole place. You can see so many different fish and corals in one place. Perfect place also to make photos together with different species and so much to explore. Must be place for all kids regardless of age. Especially the seahorses where amazing to watch. Whatever you would like to explore from sharks to corals and morays you can find in the lost chambers. All fish were very active and looked happy enjoying the aquariums which we found very important, no bad smell, nothing to complain about, just perfect!
