SupraAyf Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Anyone been? Is there anything worth buying over there? Yep, I travel through every so often but I don't like to stop for more than a few minutes. Take her to somewhere a little more interesting like Leeds:rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Havard Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Going Dubai over valentines day, can't wait! Anyone been? Is there anything worth buying over there? Camels are cheap!! Apparently Gold is a good buy. There are a few markets where you can have a good nosey. Go to the Wild Water Wadi, it's brilliant. You have never lived until you have gone up a waterslide...... Also go to the Hard Rock Cafe just outside the American University, great music and the food is tremendous!! H. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexM Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 I went there about two years ago, absolutely loved the place. Clean, hot, and a brilliant hotel (stayed at the Jumeirah beach hotel). Plenty of activities to do and I really wish I'd never left . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig l Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Hi mate was there last march and sep go to the gold souks, loads of cheap gold,bought my gf a ring for £200 which was worth £800 over here. Wild wadi is good but really expensive actually not worth the money but u get a great view of the burj all arab hotel.Go to the mall of emirates shopping centre its 1 of the biggest in the world, best thing about its the valet parking outside you ll see every dream car u want. Its got an indoor ski slope as well with real snow.You ll love dubai its really clean and everything built to perfection no expense spared.

far Posted January 28, 2008 Share Posted January 28, 2008 Petrol is very cheap He should buy a shisha hey CJ ? I would suggest dessert safari - max speed over sand dunes and ridiculous 80 degree slopes in a role caged modded 4x4, dinner at the burj (sp), skiing at the hall of emirates. Have you sorted your accommodation mate? I have an apartment you can rent if you like ps tons of nice cars out there - take us some pics! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know one guy who buys out there and sells it here which pretty much pays for his holiday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
