Lavish, exuberant, and the undisputed land of excess. Welcome to Dubai! Towering buildings decorated with gold, super malls stocked with the world’s finest and most expensive goods, and cities built in the ocean.

Know Before You Go:

Dubai is a Muslim country but the more relaxed of the Emirates thanks to its population which consists of around 80% ex pats. In public spaces and Mosques, covered shoulders and pants or below the knee skirts or dresses are recommended. During Ramadan it is important to follow local customs thoughout this special time of year.

However, for the remainder of the year, you'll find that a more western wardrobe is perfectly acceptable, especially in tourist areas. Remember to check restaurant dress codes when making reservations, as more formal attire is sometimes required. We recommend the gorgeous Reina Shirt Dress for the perfect mix of comfort and style in Dubai’s hot climate, no matter which activities you choose!
