Dubai – a grown-up wonderland
While Dubai attractions are usually in the range of five-star luxury, there are lots more things to do besides. Begin with the sand and the sea, of which Dubai has plenty, and then dig around for some more unusual attractions. Hot air ballooning at dawn provides a unique perspective on the area, the Godolphin stables reveal the city’s passion for horse racing, and no trip is complete without a visit to the old-style souks.
