'Best for curious and independent-minded travelers.' - WALL STREET JOURNAL
This spectacular city of skyscrapers and souks won’t seem like a mirage, with Lonely Planet’s Dubai Cityguide on your iPhone. A desert boom-town to put Las Vegas to shame, the powerhouse of the UAE could seriously overwhelm, if it wasn’t for the hundreds of hours our expert authors have spent scouring the town for the best eating, sleeping, shopping, sightseeing and more. From the ivory beaches of Jumeira to the gold market of Deira, we’ve got this oasis covered.
Dubai is a feverishly high-tech town, the kind of place you need a Cityguide on your iPhone to navigate properly. You’ll never lose your way, or be at a loss to find the best attractions in your area with our comprehensive, zoomable, GPS-enabled maps; the intricacies of local lore are made plain in our authoritative chapters on Arab history, culture, food, language and more; you’ll be able to pierce the city’s heart with confidence, following our detailed walking tours; and if desert safaris or golf are your pleasure, we’ve done the legwork on those too. And don’t worry about leaking money on roaming connection charges: our apps work stand-alone. Perfect!
