Budget to travel Dubai (Couple)

The best part about travelling to Dubai is that you do not have to be a millionaire. Dubai is one of the most luxurious destinations in the world but it is a country that welcomes every tourist with open arms, no matter what your budget is. There are different types of packages available for couples with different budgets travelling to Dubai based on their needs and priorities. A lot of couples focus on a very good stay while some are more inclined towards a bigger number of sightseeing activities and Dubai has plenty of options for both kinds. Trips to Dubai for couples start from a nominal amount of Rupees 15k per person and can go up to Rupees 50k per person for travelling within a tight budget. But if you want a splendid and ultra-luxurious honeymoon in Dubai then the best hotels in the world, as well as front row tickets to many activities in the country, can cost you around Rupees 100K per person. Dubai trips are not only limited to Dubai because there is so much to do in and around Dubai that couples often prefer taking advantage of this beautiful situation to explore places like Abu Dhabi, the richest of the Emirates and Ferrari World. There are activities such as water amusement parks, desert safari, underwater aquarium, Dhow Cruise, visiting the Burj Khalifa, Bur Dubai to name a few that make up for the whole trip. Thus, choosing a lavish stay at one of the 5 star hotels in Dubai along with a full packed list of activities to do can increase the cost of the trip. But a splendid trip with the best activities and 3 or 4 star hotel stay can cost as low as Rupees 25K per person for a couple but you need a good guide to curate the best trip as per your budget and needs for Dubai because the country has so much to offer, one may get overwhelmed. Venus Destinations makes sure that your needs are not only understood but also met and hence, you can count on us to serve you the best experience of magical Dubai.

Best Time to travel Dubai (Month + Airline + Tickets)

While planning a trip to Dubai, it’s always best to plan ahead and book the airline tickets a few months prior to the trip for the best deals. This can bring down the cost of travel really low and save you a lot of money to spend in Dubai. The best time to travel to Dubai is from August to March. Dubai is a destination which is for all seasons and all reasons. The winters are always pleasant in Dubai but the gulf waters can get too chilly to swim and hence it’s best to avoid swimming but do not let that stop you from sunbathing in the sandy white beaches, this is the best time to soak in all the vitamin D. Summers in Dubai can get really hot and thus, many activities such as Desert Safari can be disrupted during mid-summer and hence, planning around summer months is a better idea. Tickets as well as hotels are much cheaper during the summer months and even during the end of summer up till September. That would be the best time to buy tickets and book the best hotels if you are planning your trip to Dubai on a short notice. But if you can plan in advance, then visiting Dubai during January to March would be the best due to their world famous shopping festival. Dubai lights up with glamour during these months and you can get the best deals in the world’s shopping capital as well as party your heart out at best rates. Spring in Dubai is one of the most pleasant months to visit Dubai but these months are usually very crowded because most tourists choose spring to visit the beautiful gulf city. One thing to keep in mind while planning your Dubai trip is to keep track of the Ramadan month. It keeps shifting throughout the year as you might miss out on a lot of things due to the restrictions on public places during the Islamic festive month.

Things to keep in mind in Dubai

Dubai is the most westernised city in the UAE but there are still laws and regulations that a tourist must keep in mind while visiting Dubai. There are also other things to keep in mind that will make your Dubai tour the best and a tour guide can help you get familiar with all of the things that you should be mindful of in Dubai while enjoying the magical city to its best. First of all, respecting the culture and religious values of the locals is necessary for a good travel experience. Dressing modestly at public places is advised because of the traditional reforms in Dubai but if you are at a private beach then you are free to wear whatever you want. Another thing that has to be kept in mind is the heat of Dubai, summers can be extremely hard on you if proper precautions are not taken and a good itinerary is not planned. Venus Destinations keeps all these things in mind and prepares the best itinerary and tour schedule to ensure you have an unforgettable experience of majestic Dubai. If you plan to visit Dubai during the month of Ramadan, you should keep in mind the sentiments and emotions of the Muslims following their religious fasting during the month and hence you should not eat, drink or smoke in front of them from sunrise to sunset, including public places such as roads and parks. It is also advisable to book your flights and plan your trip for a few months because you want to materialise the trip in order to get the best deals and have the most budget friendly yet luxurious tour of Dubai.
