What a Dubai
trip costs
Real starting prices for attractions and transfers, in dirhams, with sample baskets for a three-day trip. Every number here is a price you can actually book.
The breakdown
What the price is made of
A Dubai trip has five parts: flights, hotel, attractions, transport and food. The two large ones, flights and hotel, are driven mostly by your dates — prices are higher in the cool season and over holidays, and lower in summer. Attractions and transfers are far more stable across the year, which is why they can be planned in advance.
On this site, attraction and transfer prices are shown in dirhams (AED). A starting price is the basic ticket for one person; upgraded tickets such as fast-track entry, sunset time slots or combined packages cost more.
Hotels do not carry a published price. The rate depends on the dates, the room type and the length of stay, and we send it to you when we check availability.
Saving
Where the savings actually are
The biggest lever is the date, not the discount. Moving a trip by two weeks either side of a holiday changes the hotel price far more than any combination of attraction tickets.
After that it is ticket type. A timed entry rather than an open date, or a standard slot rather than the hour around sunset, often costs meaningfully less for the same attraction.
Transfers are priced per vehicle, not per person, so a family or a group pays the same as a couple. For four people or more it is usually cheaper than separate taxis and considerably less hassle.
