8 Common Mistakes Tourists Makes When Visiting Dubai

  

    

    Dubai is one of the top tourist destinations in the world, every year more than 8 million people choose Dubai as their favorite holiday destination. Now Dubai's Development, Culture, infrastructure and technology everything is directly related to Tourism so everybody loves this beautiful City.

   Here we point out some common mistakes tourists makes when visiting Dubai.

1. Never pay bills or taxi fares in Dollar, 

   if you are paying a bill or taxi fare in Dollar it means you are paying 3.5X extra, because taxi fare, shops or hotel bill written and displayed in AED in UAE , you can pay in USD but do the conversion first then pay it.

Eg: your restaurant bill is 50 , it means 50 AED so convert this 50 AED to USD ( 50/3.5= 14.28 USD) not 50 USD. 

2. From our experience, Don't buy all Tourist Entry passes or tickets before you arrive,

   most of the people do not plan accordingly don't waste your money, 

3. Visiting only Main Tourist attractions

  Most of the tourists only explore the main common tourist attractions in Dubai but there is many traditional and cultural attractions need to explore.

4. Eating only Fast food Chains

  It's our every day routine and we all like these restaurant but never forget to try something new or traditional food in your Dubai Trip. Try some good local flavors.

5. Money Exchange 

  This is a very common mistake, we recommend you don't exchange big amounts of money at the airport or hotel reception. Definitely you can find better options in outside.

Eg: when you going for a purchase from the local market, you can pay the amount in Dollars ,here you can get the highest exchange rate without any commission, normally 1 USD equal to 3.5 USD, small dollar fluctuations will not affect here.

6. Not Explore Local market

  Deira and Naif are the hub of Dubai's wholesale and retail business, it's a must visit place. Here you can find Perfume, cloths, cosmetics, mobile accessories, electronics and replica products etc..

7. Not Using public transportation

    Using public transportation is a very good experience, Through this we can learn and understand one country's development, technology and culture. Dubai's public transportation is one of the Best in the world.

8. Don't forget to take your Sunscreen

  Especially in the summer time you should need it.
