Luxury & Leisure Tourism In Dubai
Dubai Tourism - Luxury & Leisure Tourism In Dubai by Dubai City Guide Summer 2008
Dubai – once a barren desert and now, a thriving metropolis with a developed economy. Although Dubai is best known for its commercial qualities, the emirate has much more to offer, if you look beyond the common beliefs and ideas. Luxury tourism is a hallmark in Dubai and the evidence is everywhere in the central city and along the Gulf coastline.
Jumeirah, the most luxurious region in Dubai, attracts the affluent tourists from around the globe to its private beach, luxury resorts and leisure experiences. The most prominent structure in Jumeirah, Dubai that screams luxury is the world renowned Burj Al Arab hotel. As the proud owner of a pristine beach located in close proximity, this magnificent, ’seven-star’ edifice is the place to experience ultimate fine dining, personal pampering and pure luxury. Other acclaimed five-star hotels in Dubai include Jumeirah Beach Hotel, One & Only Royal Mirage, Mina A’ Salaam and Jebel Ali Golf Resort.& Spa.
Besides the luxury accommodation, Dubai luxury tourism has another aspect to everything it offers – extravagant spending opportunities through hot air balloon rides, helicopter tours, yacht and catamaran cruises, full-day spa treatments, golf resorts and much more. Even ordinary travel itinerary items such as the desert safari, traditional dhow cruise and Dubai city tours are modified for the luxury traveller. Deluxe desert safaris with exclusive arrangements, personal-party-only cruises along the breathtaking nighttime Dubai Creek and limousine tours around the city are very much part of the luxury and leisure tourism sector in Dubai.
Dubai luxury tourism is heavily complemented by the excellent additional traveller requisites. Flying first-class to Dubai is very easy, with airlines such as Emirates, Qatar Airways, British Airways and Cathay Pacific offering exclusive services for their passengers. Travellers can arrange for a chauffeur-driven Lincoln Town Car, BMW or Mercedes for their transportation while they are touring Dubai. Car rentals are also available in the premium range for those seeking luxury transportation.
