We went to the Madinat Jumeirah for picture opportunities, walked around a lot and enjoyed the views. The grounds are immaculate and well looked after.

Yes, Madinat Jumeirah is nice. Yes, there are some cool things to do, like catch a show or have a meal or hookah...But that's if you're a tourist. If you've read my reviews before, you know that I'm an advocate of actually experiencing the city, not just the tourist spots. Just like any other tourist spot, expect to pay a... More

We had dinner here at an Iranian restaurant with a view of Burj al Arab. Nice area to spend the day or come for dinner with friends. Take the boat ride in the morning you will see more

I visited here in the evening and had a lovely dinner and some drinks by the water. Yes, it is a bit Disney in that it is a new souk built in a traditional style but still a pleasant place to spend and evening.

Good to have a look around and pick up a few touristy items, crockery etc. Also contains some good restaurants and bars. Definitely worth a visit when you're in Dubai.

Do note that parking is limited so it is a better bet to take a taxi as I waited an hour in the parking to find some without parking like a YOU KNOW WHAT!!!!. Really should get some parking officials down there checking as people don't follow... More
