Dubai information

Weather: The temperature varies from 10 ° C at night in winter (December-March) to 49 ° C during the day in summer (June-August). The best time to arrive is from October to April - the temperature is conducive to long lounging on the beach during the day and spending time outdoors on warm evenings.

Visas: Citizens of the United Kingdom, the United States, New Zealand and most West European and Far East countries are entitled to a free 30-day visa at the time of arrival (with the option of extension). Citizens of other countries must obtain a visa through a local guarantor or hotel.

Duty-free shops: A duty-free store operates next to the luggage pick-up station at the airport. You can bring 400 cigarettes or 250 g cigars, 200 ml perfumes and four liters of wine or high-grade liquors to Dubai.

Drugs and alcohol: Drugs are banned and the penalties for having them are very strict. Alcohol is served in licensed restaurants, bars and clubs, but you can not buy it in the city. Driving vehicles after drinking alcohol is not allowed, and the perpetrators are waiting for very severe penalties.

Clothing: Loose cotton outfits are perfect all year round; during the day it is worth protecting your head with a hat. Winter evenings are surprisingly cold. It is also worth to prepare for a strong air conditioning in buildings. Although Dubai is relatively liberal, remember to wear modest clothes while visiting the city. Long skirts or pants and short sleeves are mandatory if you move away from the center, especially during Ramadan.

Behavior in public places: Watch out for behavior in public places - signs of drunkenness and open affection are perceived as offensive by Muslims and violate the law.

Security: Dubai is one of the safest cities in the world, and low crime means that getting around the city is not dangerous. Nevertheless, Dubai - like every big city - requires maintaining common sense. Women should not have difficulties with self-exploring the city. They must, however, remember about the non-calling outfit, which will minimize unwanted interest in more traditional parts of the city.
