      Thank you so much! Yes, it has ended up being quite a bit more than we expected, throughout UAE, but TOTALLY worth it! We have more videos coming up in UAE over the next couple of weeks :) Just saw your channel and LOVE the Everest Trek! That a serious bucketlist thing for us and can't wait to follow you on your journey around the world! perhaps we cross paths some day in this world :)!

    hi there!! I'm going to dubai during this upcoming December to catch the 2023 fireworks!! I'm so excited, and may I ask if there is anywhere for sitting down at the main boulevard? I hoping to bring in food and drink and eat while sitting down, not to mention abt the 6 hrs or more waiting till midnight. also, where do u find all these info from? any forum that could lead me to any clue?

    • @samandnick
      @samandnick  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      We sat on the side walk which is the only place to sit. Otherwise you have to make a reservation a year in advance at the restaurants along the street. I would absolutely bring food! That was a mistake we made and wish we had known! Good luck and have fun! Also, I would recommend bringing a deck of cards or something to entertain yourself because you will be sitting there for a while!

    Thank you for the helpful info. We are going to Dubai at the end of this year to see the fireworks. We really don't want to wait hours in line to get a spot that's not guaranteed. Do you have any suggestions for restaurants or something else that wouldn't already be sold out? The amount we are willing to pay depends on the options. Thank you so much!!

    • @samandnick
      @samandnick  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Honestly, all the restaurants were very expensive to get a table and then you have to buy food and drinks the whole time you are sitting there. If you can afford that and want to do it, that might be your best option if you don't want to sit on the ground! If you want to get underneath the Burj to see the fireworks with all the rich people, that will probably cost you at least 500 USD per person if you can even get a ticket at this point!

      I am not sure on a regular basis but for NYE, no. You need a ticket and they are very expensive! I think they start at $500 usd per ticket.. that's why we stayed on the sidewalk to watch it, which is free!

    Hey just saw your lovely NYE video.
    I will also fly to dubai this year to watch the fireworks. I wanted to ask: is it possible to arrive in the morning at the fountains and "just wait" till the evening? Or do they "kick you out" or wanting to see a ticket? I couldn't find any tickets only for the fountains on NYE
    Thanks so much in advance :)
    Stay safe

    • @samandnick
      @samandnick  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Great question! It seems they block the street off the whole day so it might be hard to access it at any point. We went into the mall in the afternoon and followed a "family only" crowd and somehow got in. I would suggest going through the mall. That seemed like the best bet honestly. Otherwise you have to wait in this massive line and you will never get a spot if you do that. Good luck!

      Unfortunately, we did not get into the fountain area. We tried though! They let in last minute tickets if there are any left for MUCH cheaper but there were so many people trying to get them, we had no chance. but we got a spot on the street across from the fountain entrance which was the next best thing and it was free!

      @@diasone They had a map of the outside tables and we chose out of the free ones still available. I dont remember if we paid extra, they just told us the price and we accepted it right away. The view of the fountain was great, not to mention the Burj Khalifa + all you can eat included in the price if you're OK with eating only burger, fries and drinking soda for 3 hours haha. But it was worth it. They also gave us a complementary bag of Five Guys promotionals (tshirt, sunglasses, disinfectant spray, a water thermos and an instant photo that you can have taken inside at a photo corner).
