Visitor Information

The Dubai government has launched the site Visit Dubai, which has a wide range of information, from event listings to recommended tours, accommodations, and itineraries. The site also addresses many FAQs about the region, including visa concerns, maps, and cultural information. They also have apps that can assist while you're on the move.

A 24-hour information desk in the arrivals hall at the airport can book hotel accommodations for you, and there are smaller information kiosks at malls throughout the city. Most hotels have a tour desk to assist once you arrive.
