Burj Al Arab

Reviewed By M5806GQlouisem - Belfast, United Kingdom

My partner and I visited Dubai last week and what an amazing trip we had. The place is packed with lots of fabulous places to see and things till do. The people are extremely friendly, it’s a very clean environment and may I add I felt very safe here. But the highlight of our trip was non other than visiting The ‘Burj Al Arab’ for afternoon tea in the ‘Sky View Bar and it did not disappoint! This was a breathing taking experience from the exquisite food to the spectacular views. I booked the afternoon tea for my 30th birthday treat online and corresponded via email with ‘Kamal’ who replied to any questions and queries I had regarding my booking. He was extremely professional and prompt with all emails that I’d sent. He even managed to meet and greet us on the day of our afternoon tea and give us a tour of beautiful hotel and showed us around, to which was outstanding and we throughly enjoyed. Our afternoon tea was delightful, we over indulged in lots of fabulous cakes,sandwiches,scones,teas etc and I even managed to receive a birthday cake and a beautiful red rose from our very attentive waiter Robbie, such a lovely guesture. The interior and exterior is out of this world and it is absolutely pristine!! I would thoroughly recommend this experience to anyone visiting Dubai and we hope to return in the future. Thank you Burj Al Arab & Kamal, you made our experience one we won’t forget for a very long time. Back in rainy Ireland and missing Dubai already! Many Thanks Louise

Burj Khalifa

Described as both a ‘Vertical City’ and ‘A Living Wonder,’ Burj Khalifa, developed by Dubai-based Emaar Properties PJSC, is the world’s tallest building. Rising gracefully from the desert, Burj Khalifa honours the city with its extraordinary union of art, engineering and meticulous craftsmanship. At 828 metres (2,716.5 ft), the 200 plus storey Burj Khalifa has 160 habitable levels, the most of any building in the world. The tower was inaugurated on January 4, 2010, and is responsible for a number of world-firsts. The tower became the world’s tallest man-made structure just 1,325 days after excavation work started in January 2004. Burj Khalifa utilised a record-breaking 330,000 cubic metres of concrete; 39,000 tonnes of steel reinforcement; 103,000 square metres of glass; and 15,500 square metres of embossed stainless steel. The tower took 22 million man hours to build.

Dubai Frame

The UAE’s latest cultural landmark, Dubai Frame is an iconic structure that ‘frames’ impressive views of Old and New Dubai, while serving as a metaphorical bridge connecting the emirate’s rich past with its magnificent present. Offering spectacular panoramic views across the city, Dubai Frame celebrates the story of Dubai from its early establishment to its ambitious plans for future development. Launched in January 2018, the project comprises a 150-metre-high, 95-meter-wide structure being built to resemble a huge picture frame, through which landmarks representing modern Dubai such as Emirates Towers and Burj Khalifa can be seen on one side, while from the other side, visitors can view older parts of the city such as Deira, Umm Harare and Karama. Exterior design of Dubai Frame was inspired from the logo of EXPO2020. Dubai Frame is world's largest picture frame by Guinness World Records. The past, present and the future of Dubai in one destination: Dubai Frame.

I would recommend Dubai Frame for everyone looking for a fun day out. I have been to At the top Burf Khalifa multiple times as well. Dubai Frame might to be as high and tall a s the Khalifa but it has an amazing view aswell. The glass floor gives you the exciting, thrilling experience adn the view is amazing as you can see the dubai skyline including the Burj khalifa which looks magnificent during sunset and after all the buildings light up after dark.

Recently visited Zabeel Palace with my 2.8 yrs old son to see Peacocks. It is a beautiful place to visit. You are not allowed near the palace but you can get a magnificent view of the palace and iconic sites from there. It is green and with open space.
