Abu Dhabi/Dubai Travel Guide

First, we arrived in Abu Dhabi. It was Ramadan, and we chose to stay at the Edison Hotel. Upon arrival, locals in white robes gathered together, driving luxury vehicles and playing uplifting music🎵. The atmosphere was incredibly exciting! I highly recommend the Edison Hotel in Abu Dhabi for its great value for money and the pleasant scenery around. Unfortunately, due to our tight schedule, we didn't have more time to enjoy the hotel's amenities. In Abu Dhabi, we booked a mosque visit at sunset. It's important to arrange for a chartered car and attraction reservations in advance, otherwise, it might be impossible to organize at the last minute. The mosque is magnificent and sacred. I bought a robe at the entrance and remember to bargain hard!🕌️ Warner Bros. World and Ferrari World are must-visit places, especially suitable for children. There, you won't feel the sun, tiredness, or rush, and it's a lot of fun. The country gives a comfortable feeling, particularly good for family trips with kids😌. Next, we went to Dubai and chose to stay at the St. Regis Hotel. The beach requires a drive to get to, and the sky pool and beach do not allow children, which is a bit disappointing. However, the beach pool at the St. Regis is truly beautiful and enchanting, as if transporting you to another dimension, offering a refreshing experience. It also allowed me the freedom to dress in ways I wouldn't dare to try back home. Booking in advance is necessary for the Burj Khalifa and the Museum of the Future, as it was peak season when we visited, and without a reservation, it would have been impossible to go up. The Museum of the Future felt like being in a movie scene, filled with a sense of the future, as if traveling through time. Although the wait to go up the Burj Khalifa was a bit frustrating, the mood was joyous once up there, and we even caught a spectacular fountain show⛲️ and light display. Additionally, the Louvre Abu Dhabi is a place I particularly liked. The Presidential Palace, on the other hand, was just okay for me. The exhibits at the Louvre Abu Dhabi are rich and varied, dazzling to the eyes, and each spot is as beautiful as a painting. I also took a very pleasant boat ride. During our yacht sightseeing, we took a taxi because we were in a hurry, and the driver charged us an exorbitant fare. This was really infuriating, but everything else was great, so be sure to choose your transportation carefully🚗. You can download Uber for convenient and affordable rides, and the cars are quite nice. We also booked a desert hotel in advance. Since we are a family of four, the hotel had certain requirements for the room type, making the desert hotel the most expensive part of the trip. However, it didn't disappoint me; the kids had a lot of fun, and the desert dinner was great. I took multiple yacht sightseeing trips in Dubai, and my favorite was watching the sunset from the yacht. The sky at each moment showed different kinds of beauty, eventually turning into an orange sea, intoxicatingly beautiful. All the reservations were arranged by a Chinese lady, who was very friendly. If you need, I can recommend her to you!
