Dubai Fountain Show Guide
The Dubai Fountain show is truly breathtaking. So, if you're planning to visit, here are some tips to help you make the most of your experience.
Best Viewing Spots
Look, the best spot to watch the Dubai Fountain show is from the Dubai Mall's Waterfront Promenade, where you can see the Burj Khalifa in all its glory. You can also book a table at one of the many restaurants in the area, like At.mosphere, which offers stunning views of the fountain. And, if you're feeling fancy, you can even take a boat ride on the lake for AED 65 per person.
Timings and Schedule
The Dubai Fountain show timings vary depending on the day and time of year. Honestly, it's best to check the official website for the most up-to-date schedule, but generally, the shows start at 6 pm and go on till 11 pm, with intervals of 30 minutes. You can also catch the afternoon shows on weekends, which start at 1 pm.
Getting There
So, to get to the Dubai Fountain, you can take the metro to the Burj Khalifa/Dubai Mall station, and then follow the signs to the Waterfront Promenade. You can also take a taxi, which will cost you around AED 20-25 from the city center.
Food and Drink Options
Here's the thing: there are plenty of food and drink options available around the Dubai Fountain, from street food stalls to high-end restaurants. I'd recommend trying the shawarma from one of the local stalls, which costs around AED 10-15. You can also grab a coffee or snack from one of the many cafes in the area, like Starbucks or Costa Coffee.
Other Activities
But, if you're looking for more to do in Dubai, you should definitely check out the Desert Safari: 5-Star Premium Camp Experience, which includes a thrilling dune bashing ride, camel ride, and a delicious dinner under the stars. Or, you could visit the Dubai Safari Park, which is home to over 2,500 animals from around the world.
And, finally, my top tip for visiting the Dubai Fountain show is to arrive early to secure a good spot, and don't forget to bring your camera to capture the stunning views. You can book tours and activities through Roamigo Trips to make the most of your trip to Dubai.
