YongJohn Malte Hvid Post Count: 10 Msg: #1 75 days ago, September 9th 2009 | Dear All | I am travelling to Dubai later this month and i have a couple of questions i would like an answer to. 1. About clothing. I know that shorts are accepted, but are they also required to cover the full knee? I know that hot-pants or similar is not well seen, but is it okay to have them cover halv-knee or similar? 2. Me and my travel-partner wish to go on a desert safari. Is it recommended to book this in advance, or can it be done, when we arrive? Can you recommend any specific operator? 3. Am i able to use my Visa Electron in Dubai?

However, the name of this city became well known around the world. people they might know Dubai but they will not know UAE !! UAE and espiecally Dubai is very modernized and you will find alot of international hotels, resturants, and very beautiful shopping malls. Anyway You can search more about it, now regarding your ponts; 1) Short's are okay and there is no problem to wear it in all the Arabian Gulf countries (Might be only a little problem in Saudi Arabia, but not really sure). 2) Well I can't help you in this as i dont know any operators there .. but 100 % you can do it once you arrive dubai, as there is many travel agencies there. 3) You will be able to use your Visa Electron, Visa Credit Card, Master Card, there is no problems. From your questions, i can tell you you will be shocked when you wil visit Dubai .. looool Enjoy your trip [Edited: 22:29 - Ray_Om ] YongJohn Malte Hvid Post Count: 10 Msg: #3 73 days ago, September 11th 2009 | I have read a lot about it. Actually Dubai has been a kind of "hobby" for me, in the last year. I know a lot about the city and it's history. But the dress-code seemed to be "unclear" to me. | Thanks for your answers :) [Edited: 22:34 - YongJohn ] pitya parag nadgauda Post Count: 1 Msg: #4 64 days ago, September 20th 2009 | Hi YongJohn, | 1. Dress you have mentioned should be no problem in Dubai or any Emirate in UAE. 2. Ya , best will be to book safari once you are there, you may be able to get some bargains. 3. Your cr card should work there. Parag YongJohn Malte Hvid Post Count: 10 Msg: #5 64 days ago, September 20th 2009 | Thank you.
