Travel agents provide your car on "as per itinerary basis", you end up paying more for ala carte Dinner and cab charges, if you have booked on breakfast only Basis. A travel agent doesn't include negotiated price dinner, as it will inflate the visible total cost.

Right Local Transportation in Dubai:   

Like any other major city, Dubai is Infested with Many Problems; Traffic is one of them.

What to wear in Dubai during the Dubai trip?

Dress code is a Major Reason for stress for many people traveling to the United Arab Emirates. Tourists and ex-pats wear regular clothes.  You are expected to wear closed-toe shoes with pants or long skirts for ladies with your shoulders covered while dining in restaurants in Burj Khalifa and Burj Al Arab.

PDA in public: You could get arrested for public displays of affection while in Dubai. I later read that holding hands and a peck on the cheek is fine.

Money, Money, Money!

Dubai currency is called “Dirham” or AED for Arab Emirate Dirham. You can see it abbreviated ads Dhs or DH. The dollar bill denominations conveniently Displayed in Arabic on one side and English on the other side. There are coins as well. The current conversion is 1 Dirham equals Rs18.

Food &Alcohol in Dubai:

 Dubai is known for multi-racial cuisines and delicacies and anything you wish to eat you will find here. You Can try authentic Cuisine of  Malay, Asian, Thai including Indian and can see their influence on the local food in Dubai. Since Dubai is a Muslim region, do not expect to find pork to eat in the restaurants. Dubai offers plenty of seafood, lamb, beef, and chicken on Menu. Popular dishes include shawarma (sliced meat like a kebab), hummus, curried dishes, basmati rice, and marinated whole fish. Dates are also very popular food. It comes in many varieties and you will find date markets and fancy date shops in the malls. Try some with Arabic coffee.

Dubai For Indians

 Indians in Dubai.

Dubai Holiday is Favorite International Holiday Destination of Indians, but Indian came  here to work in  UAE oilfield as a migrant labor And settled here. Life is very fast and competitive here as compared to India but overall it has been a great experience for Indians.

Getting a driving license in Dubai is expensive and takes time.

3.      Savings – Savings is the most important part. Your savings depend on various factors. The salaries that we get here are tax-free in UAE and India; when remitted to India. Recently Dubai Imposed a 5% VAT, though. People here earn a decent salary but they still live paycheck to paycheck or they live on loan/ credit cards owing to their extravagant lifestyle. Some people who save 75–80 % of their salaries and have got decent investments back in India.

4.      Social Life – There are a lot of people of all states, caste, and Religion of India.  so you will have at least one Bengali, Malayali, Punjabi in your friend circle and you will have a mixed group of friends here and celebrate all the Indian Festivals together. Your friend circle also comprises people from Pakistan and the Philippines.

5.      Law and Order - Jugaad (hack) does not work, here when it comes to getting your work done in government offices, banks, etc. People respect and Obey the law and there is very little Chance Of Crime being committed. You need to be a bit cautious when you rent/buy properties, but all in all, Dubai is a safe place to live.

6.      Food- There are many good Indian restaurants serving delicacies of all the Indian States. You get authentic Veg/ Non-Veg Indian Street food. You can see many Indian supermarkets - Lulu, Al Adil, etc - to name a few.
