‘Little by little, a little becomes a lot.’ Saving a few bucks at each step, we are going to make your travel itinerary the most affordable ever.
Without further adieu, let’s start with our tips and tricks already. Shall we?
Tip #1 Attractions Pass is a Blessing
You must have heard of a bus or a metro pass. Right? Those passes allow special discounts to frequent travelers using a bus or a metro. Similarly, Dubai has an attraction pass, as the authorities know that the town is home to countless tourist attractions, and visiting all of them, including the costly ones, can hurt our pockets. Getting that Dubai pass unlocks a special discount for most of the tourist attractions for you. Other than that, you can also get discounts on spas, restaurants, theme parks, and other tourist activities just by asking for such recommendations from your hotel representative.
Tip #2 Opt for Public Transport
Nowadays, we are all fans of private cabs. But when in a foreign land, using public transport is efficient as well as something different as an experience. When the city of Dubai offers numerous public transport modes like buses, metros, monorails, trams, and abras, you should definitely not miss traveling in these modes of transport. When you are out to visit the famous Dubai sites, the Dubai Metro is there to take you anywhere you want along its route. The Dubai Metro’s Nol card will save you money on buses, monorails, and trams as well. Just for the experience, hop on the traditional water taxi abra to witness the picturesque views of Dubai for merely AED 1.
Tip #3 Plan and Book in Advance
On a trip, we become carefree and we definitely should be. But, while planning for the trip, we should be very careful to look for what we have to do on the trip and book everything ahead of time. How does that help? If we choose our preferences from the list of all upcoming events in Dubai, it will be easier to get the passes, and that too, at discounted prices. Similarly, booking the flights of arrival and departure and checking out accommodation deals before time saves us money as well as helps us travel carefree.
Tip #4 Visit When Others Are Not Visiting
Everyone visits Dubai from October to March because, during those months, the temperature is slightly cooler. But it’s not that the temperature is unmanageable the rest of the year. Other than that, as there are less number of tourists in the off-season, you get huge discounts on accommodations, flight deals, and tourist attractions. Most importantly, you find more peace, which is why everyone gets on board for a vacation.
Tip #5 Ditch Luxury Hotels and Go Budget- Friendly
They say luxury comes with a price and here we are trying to decrease the prices as much as possible. So, luxury hotels shouldn’t be on your list if you want to save money in Dubai. Instead, go for Airbnb apartments and hostels that come with lower prices as well as a stocked kitchen. Firstly, you will save on hotel prices. Secondly, you can save on snacks by preparing them yourself in the kitchen or using the takeout option from eateries. Isn’t it like killing two birds with one stone and saving a lot just by making a smart decision?
Tip #6 Never Miss the Free Experiences
We have said previously as well that everyone finds pleasure in Dubai. Although the passes for some tourist attractions in Dubai are pricey, some attractions offer free entry as well. Those attractions also offer views of some other famous attractions. For example, Kite Beach is home to various lively and relaxing activities and the Dubai Fountain offers a view of the Burj Khalifa with its free-of-cost fountain shows. What do you think? Isn’t it most useful to use Dubai travel tips & hacks to save money? So, make sure you have these free yet invaluable experiences on your Dubai holiday!
Tip #7 Be a Super Shopper Who Shops at the Duty-Free
All the travelers are aware of the Duty-Free that’s available at the airport. Duty-Free is named such because the import duty is not charged for the artifacts bought from such stores. But the highlights are that you will also find great deals on all the products, be they brands, food, perfumes, toys, electronics, or cosmetics. On top of that, if you keep your shopping bills and food bills from the expenses made in the UAE handy, you can get a tax refund on the same at the airport.
Tip #8 Save a Lot on the Entertainer App
As the name says, the entertainer app offers a magazine to entertain you. But it also saves you money with its special deals on activities, restaurants, and hotels. So, it ultimately saves you from getting bored and spending more. Isn’t it amazing? On top of that, if you are lucky enough to get off the app’s trial subscription, your savings will be extravagant.
