There is currently no tax on alcohol in Dubai, it was removed at the start of 2023. The only taxes remaining on alcohol are 5% import duty and 5% VAT. So just like in the US when you are getting drinks at a 5 star resort right on the beach you will pay extortionate rates. As a whole, in like for like establishments I find NYC quite a lot more expensive than Dubai, especially when you factor in the out of control tipping culture in the US.
I stayed for 2 months back in 2022 and I managed on a budget ☺️ using the Dubai metro/ tram / buses really helps if your a adventurous person that loves exploring the city
Your room is beautiful and comfortable, and I love the snack bar! I hope I have the opportunity to stay there in my lifetime! OMG, that burger looks so delicious! That zip line is the most thrilling thing I’ve ever seen! This episode taught me something, making Dubai friends is the most important thing in one's life! I hope there are people in Dubai willing to be my friends! Anyway, it would be the best if Brett were my friend! Thank you so much for sharing such a luxurious episode! Finally, congratulations on being an Expedia Ambassador! 👍🥰🙌🎉
The Pullman is on my street! If you didn’t already (and when you come back) there’s a really cool speakeasy bar called Honeycomb Hifi in that hotel! 👌❤️
I discovered this channel in the beginning of the year,and have been watching Brett's videos every day ,but sadly i finished watching every video 😅, now i have to wait after weeks for him to drop a new video
So glad you're back with a new video. To be honest, there is a big difference between 100$ and 1000$ trip to Dubai. Dubai has become richer and more, not only in natural resources, but also thanks to people, policies, high quality of service and so on. I will try to get a chance to go to Dubai with my family one day and discover this amazing and gorgeous place. Good luck Brett and hope you have more videos of countries in the world.
Finally you met a Kenyan like me😊 Im really glad to watch your videos and also learn something from it since its part of my bucketlist💯 Keep up Brother
This was such a fun vlog! Quick question, how did you go filming with your camera? We were just taking photos around the place and security would approach us every time saying not allowed camera only iPhone and threatened to call the police 😅 like at the sky view place, the burj khalifia and just in the streets 😂
super happy for you Brett! Expedia FTW! Keep up the great content! Now, get back to the Philippines again lol... Dubai is still on my bucket list... ONE DAY!
Hey brett you sould be in Dubai during the NYE for sure in the Burj khalifa they've the largest and most beautiful fireworks show on earth with lasers lights fountains you should definitely try it
Dubai’s a cool place, might make the trip over to visit someday. So many of those buildings and infrastructure projects were signed and engineered here in NYC including the Burj. Do wish they were better about how they treated foreign laboratory which have built so much of the country for so cheap.
True, but then they don't have 50k+ homeless living on the streets either, as they do in LA alone (have you seen SF recently?). The US has millions of dollars to give to Israel to murder civilians, but can't find the money to care for it's own homeless!
There is no more tax on alcohol in Dubai. Since the beginning of 2023 the tax on alcohol was removed. However the clubs and hotels took it as their advantage and didn’t lower their prices.
The Five Jumeirah is filled with chavs, and palm is one of the worse places to stay at. Also, the sand used to build the palm is acquired through the dredging of the seafloor as the desert send doesn't stick well together. Otherwise fun video.
Glad to see I'm not the only one she had help walk through the fear and falls of trading, a friend of mine I referred received $13,000 after two weeks of trading with her
Investment in cryptocurrency is the wisest, is a platform where millionaires and future billionaires come to get inspired. If you've not been involved you're missing out.
Hey Brett thank you for this video. You probably won’t see this, but your some of the reason I am taking a trip here in January to see if I want to move there. I will be staying at Atlantis The Palm. IM SUPER EXCITED. I have everything and everyday planned to a T.
I had the plesure of visiting Dubai in 2011.I am from Greece never had much money especially back then and Dubai seemed pretty value for money even cheaper than my country in food and services.I wish i could visit again with my family now but its out of reach now, way out of my bughet.
I love Dubai❤. Did you know that 20% of the population of Dubai is mostly Filipino's. There so many Filipino's living and working in Dubai. The best tourist destinations in the world.
"Discover the captivating beauty of Iran, a country rich in history, culture, and breathtaking landscapes." "Embark on an unforgettable journey to Iran and immerse yourself in its vibrant traditions, warm hospitality, and awe-inspiring sights."
Am i the only person that was wondering how one can run on eating only once a day? Eating out in Dubai itself can be $150 per day… breakfast, lunch and dinner. So, while i thank you for showing awesome things to do there - this is very unrealistic and one sided
Like every country in the world, there are many people who leave their homeland in search of better conditions for their families. Dubai is like the USA and like any other rich and developed country, where the largest physical workforce is made by foreigners, no one is slaves, get that out of your minds because no one forces those people to work there, you lose track of logic by watching too many videos on TH-cam
The Sunday Times ranks Mallorca as the world’s best place to live, while, Knight Frank, in a similar survey, puts Palma de Mallorca as the second most desirable location on the planet to buy a home.2nd most desirable?Please "Knight".Mallorca is number 1 always.
I don't think Dubai is that expensive compared to London or Paris which has become crazy expensive. For USD260/= you will be lucky to find a shoe box size hotel room in both cities.
What hotels are you staying at? 😂😂😂 I went to Paris for Christmas and paid $74 a night for a great hotel room in the center of Paris and I’m going to London for Christmas this year and paying only $100 a night for a whole apartment to myself…. So I think your $260 quote is more than a little exaggerated!
I followed you in the beginning due to your candidness and truthful persona you had in the last few years. Watched this episode I thought I’ll just be a silent viewer and let it slide. But I can’t. For someone that has travelled over 50-60 countries as you mentioned, you seemed to be very easily impressed with things. My main gripe was that Palm Jumeirah was not built on sands in the desert, they were being dregged from the bottom of the ocean off the coast. It has significantly impacted the marine landscape and it is irreversible. If you can’t package this lie well then I think you should just skip that introduction. I am a resident of Dubai coming from a very developed nation I can tell you there is nothing impressive with all that you have picked to showcase. Instead of showing the real interesting sides of UAE you chose to show all these superficial activities. My main gripe with this video is your incorrect representation of the Palm and how it was built. I don’t normally posts comments but here it is just for this video. Oh by the way, the Five you were staying in, there’s a bar below where men would visit. Don’t try to act all innocent.
$1000 budget…..did you hide in the landing gear?….lets say you survived….gou would have about 1 and a half days of food after getting a room…..that’s it
Dubai has the highest growth of high-net-worth individuals in the world. NYC has the most millionaires. Monaco has the biggest % of the population being millionaires
Bro I want to work with you. I'm from Bangladesh! I want to make Bangoli language version of your videos. Lets make a Deal. I think it will help both of us. The population is more then 160 million in Bangladesh. 📝
Hey, I follow you and I think you're really cool, but when you said that you wish Biden was there doing the same they do for the people, I just wanted to say that Bidem has done good things with the little he has to work with. Congress isn't supporting him. They would like nothing better than to see him fail ! Excuse my 2 cents I just had to comment. Enjoy your journey and SALUTATIONS 😊
Sad that you made this video. Everybody knows that influencers get paid or at least have to sign a document in which they promise not to say anything bad about Dubai
What a trip!! Hospitality in Dubai is NEXT LEVEL! 💯
🗽❤✌
If you're white
Great to see people from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼 on your channel. Shout out Brett

This episode taught me something, making Dubai friends is the most important thing in one's life! I hope there are people in Dubai willing to be my friends!
Anyway, it would be the best if Brett were my friend! Thank you so much for sharing such a luxurious episode! Finally, congratulations on being an Expedia Ambassador! 👍🥰🙌🎉

Yeah,one of the tough parts about creating in Dubai for sure. A lot of this vid was actually filmed on my phone for that reason
So great ❤
Just beautiful to watch. Definitely worth of price.
super happy for you Brett! Expedia FTW! Keep up the great content! Now, get back to the Philippines again lol... Dubai is still on my bucket list... ONE DAY!

Nobody talk about the hot weather 😂

Have you got a link to the quad/camel excursion please?

Amazing! Thank you 👍

I can’t wait to go; I’ve only heard good things 🇦🇪
The Five Jumeirah is filled with chavs, and palm is one of the worse places to stay at. Also, the sand used to build the palm is acquired through the dredging of the seafloor as the desert send doesn't stick well together. Otherwise fun video.
I stayed in many hotels worldwide and never seen condoms part of your room amenities 😅 but that's cool
especially in a place like dubai lol
Honestly all the Arab gulf states offering privileges to their citizens. Simply I’m proud to local person who’s living in the gulf
❤❤Very nice

Thanks Bret for showing us the world.
How do most of you guys still make profit, even with the downturn of the economy and ever increasing life standards
Take note of Mrs Nancy Williams, regarding your interest in bitcoin and stocks.
Interesting, please how can i get in touch with this Nancy Williams? i don't want to remain out of ignorance.
Glad to see I'm not the only one she had help walk through the fear and falls of trading, a friend of mine I referred received $13,000 after two weeks of trading with her
I really appreciate your feedback. Thanks

Could of sworn I saw Rick Ross in this video!!!
This is more of an advertising commercial.
Damn...I think I need to go on that Zipline :) - Looks like so much fun!
It wasn't there for my last visit and so many changes since 2010 :)
i'm glad he's enjoying the city that migrants built.
Hey Brett thank you for this video. You probably won’t see this, but your some of the reason I am taking a trip here in January to see if I want to move there. I will be staying at Atlantis The Palm. IM SUPER EXCITED. I have everything and everyday planned to a T.
15:20 bro😋✌🏻
you don't release new videos recently, I really miss you
Bro come to Oman too.. i wanna see you rn 😆😆
That would be cool! I never been there but i hear great stories. Maby its more authentic
May I ask where you booked this dessert experience for 85$?
Love you Brett
Come to San Francisco ❤
I started watching your vedio for English practice 😂
Dear Brett, just in case you were wondering, the biggest mall in the world is actually Iran Mall, not Dubai Mall.
They did not take sand from the desert to make the Palm. They did take rocks though. Desert sand is too fine. They sucked it up form the sea bed.
Can't wait to visit and do my own $1,000 challenge ^.^
I had the plesure of visiting Dubai in 2011.I am from Greece never had much money especially back then and Dubai seemed pretty value for money even cheaper than my country in food and services.I wish i could visit again with my family now but its out of reach now, way out of my bughet.

The flight from jfk to Dubai is only 11 hours lol 😅
Are you here? We're at JBR now !
$25 for a drink by the pool isn’t bad compared to last Vegas lol

Where to Next?
Me watching this with 40$ in my account 😂😂😂😂

Again, what's with little finger?
Think they removed the Alco tax in 1 jan 2023 :)
I don't think Dubai is that expensive compared to London or Paris which has become crazy expensive. For USD260/= you will be lucky to find a shoe box size hotel room in both cities.
You can pay good money in London and still be disappointed!
What hotels are you staying at? 😂😂😂

Must be nice man

Thank you!!

Goverment. ? They make there people richest people in the world
@@Nono-fm5mjyouve been brainwashed.
@@Nono-fm5mj tell that to all the slaves that work there
Go to America and see how that was built
Um, Dubai is not the wealthiest city according to any source that I'm able to find. It's not even in the top 10. Your hometown, NYC, is #1 actually.
Dubai has the highest growth of high-net-worth individuals in the world. NYC has the most millionaires. Monaco has the biggest % of the population being millionaires
No Dubai is not the richest city in the world. The richest city in the world is Tokyo and new york
Bro I want to work with you.
I'm from Bangladesh! I want to make Bangoli language version of your videos. Lets make a Deal. I think it will help both of us. The population is more then 160 million in Bangladesh. 📝

If you ever had a dream that u had superpowers that made u fly, defently can become true. I never knew it could happen for real .😮😮😮😮
Sad that you made this video. Everybody knows that influencers get paid or at least have to sign a document in which they promise not to say anything bad about Dubai
I can promise you that is not true as I was not paid by any means from Dubai nor did I sign anything.
