Thanks for the video and suggestions! I noticed you uploaded the video on January 21st but on what dates you guys visited? I'm going there on January 3rd, 2025, and wanted to know about your experience with the temperatures.
Glad you found the video useful! Have a great trip! 🇦🇪 For United States Citizens, an advance visa is not required. We were able to get a visa on arrival valid for 30 days. Hope this helps!
Uber has recently reduced their fare prices in Dubai thanks to competition like Careem. I compared both Uber and Careem everywhere i travelled in Dubai almost same prices everywhere.
It is the value added tax amount, so if you pay tax on an item but you are from another country (in this case hold a passport for outside the UAE) then you can get the tax you paid refunded to you at the airport. Generally it is only for higher value purchases of goods (you can’t get a refund for say a $10 purchase or your lunch). Some places in the gold souks will just check your passport and not charge you the tax in the first place! Think of it as duty free shopping outside the airport!
its not a free SIM on arrival, but you do get UAE SIM Cards I think once you clear immigration at the airport.. PS: I'm a resident here therefore have a UAE sim hence the 'I think'
Gosh we want to try Ski Dubai!
It was a great time!

Which month did you visit? How was the weather?
We visited in December which we would highly recommend because it was cooler and significantly more enjoyable than the summer months!
10:41 you guys missed tons of main attractions.
What do you think we missed??
How does VAT work? Like what qualifies to get refunds and how much
It is the value added tax amount, so if you pay tax on an item but you are from another country (in this case hold a passport for outside the UAE) then you can get the tax you paid refunded to you at the airport.

Did you get a SIM card on arrival ?
its not a free SIM on arrival, but you do get UAE SIM Cards I think once you clear immigration at the airport..
