Dubai questions, answered

+Do Indian passport holders need a visa?

Most Indian travellers require a UAE visa; some holders of specific US, UK or Schengen documents may be eligible for visa on arrival. We share the current requirement list at the time of booking.

Very. We build in aquarium, theme park and beach club time and keep outdoor activity to mornings and evenings.
