There is a wide variety of activities that lovebirds can enjoy in Dubai. Whether it’s a romantic cruise or a thrilling desert safari, Dubai has all the offerings that make honeymoons truly magical and unforgettable.
City Tour
You and your special someone can do some sightseeing on board a hop-on hop-off tour bus. From the towering Burj Khalifa and the majestic Burj Al Arab to the bustling spice and gold souks, you can marvel at the wonders of Dubai in a day riding on open-top, double decker buses that offer city tours to tourists and residents. This is best done during the colder months of the year to avoid the scorching heat of the summer sun.
Heritage tour
If you want to immerse in the culture of Dubai, go on a cultural outing. The Sheik Mohammed Center for Cultural Understanding (SMCCU) provides various heritage tours, cultural meals, Jumeirah Mosque visits, Arabic classes, cultural awareness, and creekside tours to those who are interested to know more about the Emirati way of life. Check their website for schedules and bookings.
Cruising and Fishing
With sunny weather and calm seas for most days of the year, a luxury yacht cruise on the waters of Dubai is a must-do. You and your beloved can take a relaxing cruise around the incredible man-made islands of Palm Jumeirah and The World. With an abundant marine life, deep sea fishing is also a popular activity to try out. For a more romantic ambiance, take a charming sunset cruise Dubai and be captivated both by your loved one and the breathtaking colors of the Arabian setting sun. Fine dining on board a traditional Arabian dhow along the historic Dubai Creek is also a nostalgic way to end a day in Dubai.
Desert Safari
You haven’t been to Dubai if you haven’t gone on a desert safari. Adrenaline-pumping roller coaster rides on 4x4s or Toyota Land Cruisers on the undulating sands of Dubai are thrilling activities for you and your loved one to try out. After dune bashing, you can indulge in camp activities like camel riding, sand surfing, getting henna tattoos on your hands and feet, and watching belly dancing performances. Take an overnight safaris if you want to spend a romantic night under the desert stars together. October to April is the best time to go on a safari as the air is colder during these months.
Shopping
Dubai has already surpassed London, New York, and Paris as top shopping destinations. Dubai’s world-class shopping centers do not only house hundreds of the world’s top brands but are also replete with attractions for you and your loved one. The world’s largest mall, the Dubai Mall, has over 1000 shops, an indoor aquarium and underwater zoo, an Olympic-size skating rink, and the world’s biggest dancing fountain in its backyard. The Mall of the Emirates has a massive indoor ski resort for some ice-cold fun even in the desert. If you’re looking to shop for souvenirs, spices, and gold at incredibly low prices, a trip to the souks in Deira would be in order. You can choose from a wide array of exotic herbs and spices at the Spice Souk or buy some gold and platinum jewelry at the Gold Souk. Haggling is the norm here, so don’t hesitate to bring down that price to get the best bargain of your life.
These are just a few of the amazing things that you and your loved one can do in Dubai. Whether you’re planning for a quiet and relaxing honeymoon or an adventure-filled outing together, Dubai is definitely worth a visit for lovebirds.
