Dubai has almost become a place where dreaming is reality, so where better to spend a fun-packed family holiday? In the few decades since this Emirate began welcoming tourists whole islands have emerged from the water, a snow-swept ski slope appeared from the desert and the world’s tallest building has topped off a truly dazzling skyline!
What’s more, it’s home to the world’s most luxurious hotel, Burj Al Arab, and many more incredible resorts perfect for families such as One&Only Royal Mirage, The Palace and Atlantis, The Palm.
There’s so much to see and do here that it’s difficult to know where to start. Teenagers will go mad for the Dubai Mall; the largest shopping centre in the world, with over 1,200 retail outlets and a colossal aquarium. If shopping ‘til you drop doesn’t appeal then there are plenty of soft sandy beaches and the inviting warm waters of the Arabian Gulf to enjoy too. If splash-about fun is your family’s thing then Dubai’s vast waterparks are sure to delight. Wild Wadi Waterpark complex has everything from a lazy river to thrilling and seemingly endless water slides and guest of any of the Jumeirah hotels in Dubai enjoy free unlimited entry. Whilst the Aquaventure waterpark at Atlantis the Palm is another fantastic day out on, with stomach-turning slides as well as the vast Ambassador lagoon, filled with over 65,000 marine animals!
This is just the tip of the iceberg, there is so much more to do in Dubai, our Travel Specialists can’t wait to tell you all about it and create a bespoke family holiday that’s perfect for you all!
