Dubai

Dubai travel guide

The Dubai Travel Guide from The Great Hotels Organisation is free for all Dubai travellers.
Dubai is not only a dynamic international business centre but also a tranquil hideaway with five star amenities. Dubai has something for everyone with the crystal blue waters of the southern Gulf on one side, majestic desert on the other and the added attraction of year round sunshine. Dubai is a shoppers’ paradise with sophisticated malls and bustling souqs competing for attention from locals and tourists alike. In spite of the cosmopolitan nature of Dubai it is an area with its culture deeply rooted in the Islamic traditions of Arabia, which is what makes it such a fascinating destination.
