Quintrip rated on Trustpilot

Dubai holiday packages bring together flights, accommodation and transfers, giving you a straightforward base for exploring the city. Plan time around Downtown Dubai, the older lanes by Dubai Creek and the coastline, or add a desert outing to balance your city days.

Dubai's contrasts make it easy to shape a stay around different interests. Browse the souks near Deira, cross Dubai Creek by abra, then head to Dubai Marina for a seven-kilometre waterside walk. The emirate's 72-kilometre coastline also gives you options for a relaxed afternoon by the water.

Choose October to May for more comfortable outdoor sightseeing, when temperatures range from 20°C to 35°C. In hotter months, mix open-air visits with indoor attractions and build in breaks. Hatta offers a different setting, with mountain scenery, kayaking, hiking and mountain biking trails beyond the urban centre.

Quintrip also offers holiday packages to destinations such as Seychelles, Maldives, Bali, Zanzibar, and Mozambique, among others.

Dubai Holiday Packages


Dubai holiday packages can bring flights, a hotel and transfers together for a city break shaped around your interests. Use Dubai Creek and the lanes of Al Fahidi to explore the historic side, then set aside time for the towers and waterfront of Dubai Marina. A creek crossing and a marina stroll give the itinerary two distinct settings.

Dubai holidays are easier to plan when you match the season to your preferred pace. From October to May, temperatures range from 20°C to 35°C, making outdoor walks more comfortable. In hotter months, balance open-air visits with indoor attractions and check the monthly weather guide before settling on plans. Cooler conditions also suit a walk along Dubai Marina's seven-kilometre promenade.

Dubai packages can include time in the older districts as well as the modern centre. In Al Fahidi, walk among wind-tower houses and narrow lanes, then cross Dubai Creek by abra. Deira's souks are nearby, giving you another way to explore the city's trading heritage and local shopping streets. Traditional abra boats connect the banks and offer close-up creek views.

Make room for some of the city's landmark views. Burj Khalifa rises more than 800 metres above Downtown Dubai, while Dubai Marina Walk follows its waterway for seven kilometres past cafés, restaurants and palm trees. These contrasting settings give a short city stay different ways to spend a day. Observation decks sit on levels 124, 125 and 148.

Dubai holiday packages also give you a base for experiences beyond the central districts. The emirate has a 72-kilometre coastline, while Hatta is around a 90-minute drive away. At Hatta Dam you can kayak, and nearby trails are used for hiking and mountain biking among the Hajar Mountains. The mountain landscape contrasts with Dubai's urban districts.

Local food and simple transport details help round out a visit. Look for harees, machboos and luqaimat, then use a Nol card for public transport. Arabic is the official language and signs also use English. Keep some AED for everyday payments and plan outdoor time around the heat. A travel adapter suits the city's UK-style three-pin sockets.
