UAE / Dubai trip report — 7 days
Arrived and got settled quickly. Uber worked great. Hotel was surprisingly nice for the price.
Days 1-2: Explored, got the lay of the land. Prices seemed fair.
Days 3-14: Found my favorite spots. Found my rhythm. The downtown area was the sweet spot.
Prices: $100-200 for premium. Prices are pretty fixed.
Tips: Be respectful and tip well.
Return? Absolutely — already planning next trip.

Been there 8 times now. Still one of my top destinations. The value for money is what keeps me coming back.

First time there was overwhelming but exciting. Second time I knew the ropes and it was so much more efficient. Like most places, experience makes all the difference.
