We love Dubai, and we’re sure you will too!

Not to toot our own horn, but… we know a thing or two about the City of Superlatives. Like how it’s home to the world’s tallest building (the Burj Khalifa), the world’s deepest pool (Deep Dive Dubai) and the world’s highest 360 infinity pool (Aura Sky Pool). But we haven’t just read the Guinness World Book of Records. When we say we know Dubai, we mean we know where to go with the kids in tow, and where to go for an adults-only extravaganza (check out FIVE LUXE JBR on page 15 - they know how to party), which glitzy restaurants are worth fighting for that reservation, and whether you should stick with plain ol’ All Inclusive (boring!) or live it up with Ultra All Inclusive. Yep, that’s a thing here. We’ve been getting you lot to Dubai since way before it was cool, so we thought we’d whip up a guide to the most important deets you need to know before you go. O
