With some of the finest hotels in the world, miles of golden sandy beaches and warm seas, state-of-the-art shopping malls, exotic souks, exquisite dining options, and stunning desert landscapes, Dubai is a truly unique destination for a romantic holiday.

With a daily Emirates’ flight from Malta to Dubai, the vibrant city is becoming more and more attractive for couples looking for a relaxing escape whilst being able to enjoy one of the world’s fast growing cities.

You will not have a dull moment. Get a taste of life in the desert; ski on snow or on soaring sand dunes, shop in centuries old markets or ultra modern malls. Arabian Adventures, Emirates Destination Management Company, can make it happen for you. 

Arabian Adventures offers a wide variety of excursions that take you on discovery routes of your choice. You can choose from enchanting dinner cruises down the Creek, to journeys of exploration on the vast stretches of sand and wadis. www.arabian-adventures.com

Desert safaris offer many activities, such as sunset dune-bashing excursions, desert dining, camel rides and falconry.

Couples can spend a day in Downtown Dubai where there are plenty of activities to keep them both occupied. You can view the spectacular panorama of Dubai from the observation deck “At the Top” of the Burj Khalifa - incidentally a great venue where you can propose to your loved one - offering unparalleled vistas from the Gulf coast to the Arabian desert and beyond.

Dubai has become one of the world’s most popular shopping destinations with a wide range of luxury brands and boutiques. Dubbed a ‘Disneyland for adults’, the Dubai Mall can be found right next door to the Burj Khalifa and it is the largest mall in the world.

Couples can enjoy a Dhow cruise along the ultra modern Dubai Marina

Whilst at Dubai Mall, stop by the Dubai Aquarium & Underwater Zoo. More active couples can try their skate skills at the Dubai Ice Rink, also located in Dubai Mall and finally refuel with food and drink at one of the many eateries.

Catering to every adult’s inner child, Dubai is renowned for its waterparks. Aquaventure is located in the Atlantis The Palm resort on Palm Jumeirah and boasts 42 acres of rollercoasters, speed slides, rivers and rapids.

The Wild Wadi WaterPark located between Burj Al Arab and Jumeirah Beach Hotel, is also worth a visit. The Jumeirah Beach Hotel also offers its guests a range of watersports including jet skiing, sailing, catamarans, kite surfing, windsurfing, kayaking, banana boat rides, diving or deep sea fishing.

No holiday to Dubai is fulfilled without a safari excursion. Experience the dune bashing – it is quite a thrill. The desert camp, with its enticing aromas of authentic Arabian cuisine, awaits you. Enjoy a flavourful shisha pipe, have your hands painted with intricate henna designs, and take camel rides. A feast of grilled meats, fresh salads, delectable Arab sweets and selected beverages are served for dinner while being entertained by exotic belly dancers swaying to Arabian music – a truly enchanting evening.
