Footprints in Dubai

 DSCN5295-01

As i came to realize Dubai is one of those cities that’s so much more than meets the eye. So much to enjoy, and just a few days within which to do all the soul wants. I could have sworn the 120hrs were more than enough when i left JKIA. Last Easter i dug into my list and picked Dubai, and as usual,my experience in photos. I might need to apologize in advance,the photos are double the usual.

A full course buffet dinner along with a live show and a 2 hour cruise was a great way to combine dining with sightseeing one of Dubai’s most iconic areas. The lavish architecture of residences, resorts and shopping facilities as well as some of the most eminent attractions that dot the region,Best views ever!!!

If there is one thing Dubai has in plenty,it has to be the sexy cars.

But Burj Khalifa is not as lovely as she is at night

A Dubai tour is incomplete without the D.S. Escaping from mundane city life as we indulged in the amazing experience of a desert safari was life!! We were picked up from our hotel to explore the city’s sandy dunes and later indulged in a BBQ dinner along with activities like belly dancing. I could tell our driver was an expert, he understood  the terrain well and really amazed me with the twists and turns. The drive across the sands is sure to etch memories for a lifetime in ones mind!!

Launched on valentines day 2013 the miracle garden is picturesque to say the least. It is one of a kind in the region and in the world, a must visit if you ever find yourself touring the city.

Funny enough i haven’t had our SGR experience to date,don’t ask me why. But i wasn’t going to leave Dubai not having had a metro experience. Its a cheaper way to move around as opposed to their taxis if i may add.

This is Double Tree by Hilton Hotel Dubai, Jumeirah Beach. The parking lot by the side of the hotel has some incredibly sexy cars,behind me is a lamborghini to my left and a bentley to my right just to mention a few.

I believe the choice of a travel partner really matters and i am glad i chose the right one,third time in a row and oooh boy!!! This’ s not a sponsored post,i am just a very happy client. If you are planning to visit Dubai,choose Stejos. You can find them here or here. Thank you Stejos tours and travel for making my Easter one of the best i have ever had.

P.S the engagement photo in Dubai on my social media platforms was nothing but a fools day prank,just in case you don’t spot the photos here😄😄😝

It’s always a pleasure having you here,i hope you enjoyed today’s post. Stay tuned for another on UAE’S  capital city which you can also read about here btw.

Cheers
