This wonderful destination is dotted with a myriad of opportunities. Travelers coming from all over the world will find a multitude of things to do in Dubai.

Enchanted by the charm of this magnificent destination, I and my husband decided to go on a family trip to Dubai with our little munchkin. Since we had our child traveling with us, a perfect itinerary (that included his interests) was our top priority. We compared quite many itineraries online, but the one which served the purpose was from TravelTriangle. Be it the arrangements or the overall services, everything was up to the mark. While remembering some of the best moments of our incredible trip, here I am pouring out all the happiness that turned our vacation experience into an incredible one.

Weaving through the grandiose desert at a high speed & twisting and turning around the dunes was such an incredible experience for all of us. Not only my husband and I, but our kid loved it too. Our advice to fellow travelers is to never miss a desert drive on a family trip to Dubai. It is something that will be worth every penny.
