From flourishing shopping to prosperous cultural lures, from eye-pleasing sightseeing spots or pulsating nightlife hubs, Dubai scores a superlative rank in all categories crucial to make the destination a hit with tourists.
Due to such remarkable attractions, millions of travelers plan holidays to Dubai every year to realise their dream of seeing the best in the world. However, there are some handy tips to be kept in mind while booking Dubai holidays.
Holiday Planning
Planning a holiday is not always a piece of cake especially when the holiday is to a destination like Dubai that can baffle even the most veteran of travellers with the choices that are available. Pen down an itinerary carefully by considering the travel dates, direct or indirect flights, choice of hotel – think room only or any other board basis and excursions and sightseeing tours to be taken etc. Be it a budget or luxury holidays in Dubai, a meticulous planning is something one can not do without.
Online Research
Internet has made holiday planning a lot easier; however only a research to check the prevailing flight fares and hotel tariffs as a part of planning is recommended on the internet. Holiday packages are best booked over the phone or in the shop with expert travel agents who specialize in booking budget or luxury holidays to Dubai Besides negotiation and bargaining for the price of holiday, an expert travel advice on many factors is also a great advantage of booking offline with travel agents.
Book Early
A common rule to book cheap and successful holidays is to book them early. The season when one wants to take up the holiday greatly helps to determine how early the holiday should be booked. Needless to say that holidays for travelling during the best time to visit Dubai (Peak Season) which lasts from November to April should be booked considerably earlier than those for the off peak season. Holidays get expensive as the departure date draws closer.
Last Minute Bookings
Although not advisable due to the price factor, many travellers get lucky in grabbing cheap last minute deals. If booking at the last minute or much closer to the chosen date to commence the holiday is unavoidable, then look for travel agents who have expertise in selling holidays to Dubai. Do the research on the internet and narrow down on couple of such travel agencies. Book with the agency which offers the holiday that suits your needs the best. Also, consider to book with reputed agencies who are consolidators that have deals directly from the hotel suppliers and the airlines and not with the sub agents who bulk buy from consolidators.
All-inclusive Travel Packages
Prefer to book single holiday packages that include all the necessary elements such as flight tickets, accommodations, car rentals, etc. Booking such all-inclusive travel packages saves considerable amount of money and time. Besides, booking a single holiday package from a single travel agent for all travel needs ensures peace of mind and quick resolution of any issues later.
Construction Work in Dubai
Dubai is growing at a very fast pace and a number of construction sites are operating day and night in the emirate. Some of the construction sites are located close to many luxury hotel resorts as well as budget properties. Confirm from the travel agent that the accommodation booked is not located close to a construction site. Run an internet search and check out the details online. Often, travellers have been found to be complaining that their holiday was ruined because their accommodation was located close to the construction site.
