haha more like where ARENT the hookers at in dubai?

most 3* and some 4* in and around central burdubai and central deira are their areas of operation.

then u get the ultra high class ones which ive seen outside the fairmont

Ultra high class sounds really expensive . I think the 3* will do just fine . Thank you!

Yes Opium, spot on. If you want to be infected with HIV, hepatitis and every other STD under the sun, you may as well have paid an affordable price for it.

Hopefully I could visit Dubai soon.

opium · April 14th, 2006, 05:20 PM

Does everybody speak english in Dubai or should i get a english-arabic dictionary when i go there?

smussuw · April 14th, 2006, 08:51 PM

I just booked a trip to dubai, because I always wanted to visit it. but after reading this thread I kinda got a few doubts...it seems there are a few restrictions there (gee, no one at the car rental told me I need a special permit do drive a car in dubai...)

I do have a few questions about dubai and the U.A.E. in general:

- is it safe to travel on your own (by car), is it safe to walk around the cities at night?
- are there things that you shouldn't do (I don't want to offend anybody), like nude sunbathing or making pictures of things or people?
- what about the night life? are there places where you can go and have fun like you would do in europe or america?

dubaiflo · April 23rd, 2006, 05:32 PM

-Dubai claims to be, and imo is, the safest city in the world.
so yes it is.

-don't kiss in public

-don't take photos of local women, at least not directy in front of them

- don't get drunk and run around in the streets.

-nightclubs, just look in the first post, there are some nightclubs listed.

If you're looking for Europe and America, go to Europe and America. Otherwise, avoid public display of affection, dress modestly, respect local customs, practices to avoid offending the local people. Of course, you'll have to read up on them first.

***Sinjin P.*** · July 22nd, 2006, 05:05 AM

Hmm, does anyone have photos of Dubai's current skyline? Just curious since I haven't been able to see some

dubaiflo · July 22nd, 2006, 11:06 AM

U have 11000 posts here and never seen Dubai's skyline

Why is that? Is it just frowned upon or will you get arrested?

Bikes · September 10th, 2006, 06:30 PM

you will get arrested.

Krazy · September 10th, 2006, 06:45 PM

not really. It's only frowned upon. The only time you'll get arrested is if you're being a complete idiot. If you're cooperative, and come across the cops, the cops will help you get a cab or whatever to get you home and off the streets.

Bikes · September 10th, 2006, 07:05 PM

but by law you should get arrested right?

smussuw · September 10th, 2006, 08:14 PM

It depends on the policeman actually. They will not get away when am on duty

Tom_Green · September 13th, 2006, 09:03 PM

As the Burj Dubai gets taller i need to go again to Dubai.

I think April 2007 would be okay. The Burj Dubai should be around 150floors high by then. <------ I am sure this will be impressive for me

Here is my problem: MONEY !!!

Is it cheaper to fligh from Frankfurt to Abu Dhabi and taking a bus to Dubai?

I can`t believe that there are no small, cheap hotels in Dubai. I just need a bed and a shower.

smussuw · September 13th, 2006, 09:18 PM

u might find some in youth dorms
