UAE is a small country with hundreds of attractions. And the tourists love how they can hop from sci-fi architecture to palm-shaped islands, stumble upon the old heritage, ride in the endless desert, rush adrenaline at the world-record slides and stay at the beach resorts.
In the mix of 7 emirates, here we handpick the top 10 things to do in UAE for the travelers who want to spend an unforgettable vacation.
Ascend the Burj Khalifa
The tallest building in the world at a lofty height of 828 meters, Burj Khalifa is one of the most impressive attractions in UAE. Stand on its observation deck on the 148th floor and soak in an incredible panoramic view stretching from skyscrapers to desert.

Spend a day out in Palm Jumeirah
Dubai has set the benchmark in the architectural world with its redefining engineering. Palm Jumeirah is a legendary example and the biggest artificial island in the world. Shaped like a palm tree, the island is studded by high-end restaurants, bars, and retails to make your tour exciting and appetizing. Anything better than just visiting the island is staying in its rose-hued Atlantis, The Palm, and splashing in its Aquaventure Water Park. Take a speedboat tour or skydive for breathtaking visuals.

A blend of adventure and culture creates a mosaic of the Arabian desert. It’s a beautiful expanse of golden sand, where you can bash the dunes in a 4WD vehicle, surf the sand, rev up the quad bike, and even ride the camels. The desert safari in Dubai and Abu Dhabi promises an excursion filled with heart-thumping surprises in the camp. Be audience to the magical belly dancing, get your hands designed, puff unlimited shisha, and have the best Arabic buffet in the world.
