Sky Travel - Destination Dubai

Good for: Hotels, Luxury, Shopping, Jewellery, Eating Out

Located in between Abu Dhabi and the rest of the Emirates, Dubai is the latest up and coming tourist destination. Originally a small town of Bedouin people, it is now home to the Burj Al Arab hotel, thought to be the world’s only 7 star hotel. Many celebrities have already taken the opportunity to own a piece of this stylish city by buying a house on one of the many man-made islands that will soon be spanning its coastline.

Dubai provides a great city break with many shopping malls and Arabian Souks boasting high quality clothes in the latest fashion and endless reams of gold jewellery at a very good price.

Even though Dubai is typically a city break holiday there is still lots to do in this continually developing Emirate. If you do still have some time to spare you could always head down to Dubai's racecourse Nad Al Sheba which hosts the world's richest race, the Dubai World Cup.
