Clothes on excursions: "Sail", "Burj Dubai", safari
UAEDubai
1) What do people usually wear on an excursion to Parus? You should just dress decently, but "suits-ties-cocktail dresses" are not required? Say, an ordinary modest sundress with a decent length of the hem will do? Sorry if this is a naive question - but Parus, to put it mildly, is not a cheap territory, I don’t want to goof off. 2) The same for the Burj Dubai tower. 3) On a safari, it is also not advisable to wear shorts (even if not defiant) and T-shirts with bare shoulders (even if not defiant), in which it is not customary to appear in public places? Thanks.

Maybe you can suggest something rational for other excursions.

1. On a safari, clothes are arbitrary and comfortable for you, taking into account that you will need to walk on the sand and sit on very low benches at dinner.
2. When paying for an excursion to Parus, they frightened me with a dress code. She dressed in a beautiful dress, she herself wanted to look worthy there. But what those who come on excursions go there, including foreigners, shocked. units.
3. For the rest, everyone is dressed democratically, as it suits them, of course, within the limits of decency.

Hmm .... Oksana, somehow I don’t understand. You are trying to save on food, but are ready to shell out 100 bucks just to go to Parus..))
And a small correction - Burj Dubai - there is no such building, at first they thought it was called that, but they called it Burj Khalifa, as there is actually no "Sail" is Burj Al Arab)))
On topic, dress how you want. On the territory of the hotel, people walk as they please. Somehow you are completely obsessed with clothes.))) Once again I tell you, no one is looking at it there. You will see for yourself when you go. These are all horror stories from 20 years ago. At least wear shorts. Of course, you will not be allowed into the mosque in shorts. But around the city and malls, no problem

tourexpert, my tourist appetites overtake my financial flows))), this is not my last planned tour this year, so I want to meet a certain planned amount, which I decided to take with me to the UAE. You understand, just give women money in their hands))) Therefore, in terms of food, I always try to find a "golden mean" so that more stays on excursions. (You shamed me, now I'm going to spread the canned food out of my suitcase :))))))) Similarly, I tried to be reasonable in choosing a hotel. But at the word "excursions" I lose my mind))) Therefore, without going to extremes, of course, I prefer an affordable hotel, ordinary food, but luxurious excursions, than vice versa))
The Burj Al Arab is a whim, to be honest. I am writing - and blushing))) I, for example, am not mentally ready to pay $ 250 for a laser show, although they say it is beautiful. But I dreamed of seeing the Burj Al Arab for as long as I know about it. I'm going to regret that I didn't go.
As for clothes, I was thinking along the same lines somewhere. But it's not about horror stories, I don't want to just insult the nation with my European "liberties" ...
аватар Biker_Oksana
Alpusechka, I also vote for a beautiful dress in a decent place. I can imagine how you can feel in a la "families" in such apartments. Although ... as far as I know, Europeans approach such things with the only rational thought "to look." But personally, I'm for a sense of proportion.

Thank you, friends, you help me a lot in the collection!
аватар Alpusechka
And rightly so! I approve!
аватар tourexpert
Oksana, let me save you this money. Will you be alone? Do you know English?
Then here's a scenario for you - You drive up to the hotel by taxi, go into the lobby. Tell the administrator that you are an assistant to the big boss of the Horns and Hooves company from Kyiv. You want to put him in this hotel, but first you want to see the room, because the boss is very picky. Well, you are "hinting" that you want to compare it with the number of "Atlantis"
Well, they’ll show you the number and visit Parus)))
I myself did not do this trick, but a friend did just that. In addition, she also looked at the restaurant))). The main thing is to speak confidently And look not with an "admiring look of a tourist", but "evaluating" as an assistant director.
аватар Biker_Oksana
And if they spot it?))) Where is the confidence?))
I go alone, I know English)))
аватар tourexpert
Well... they don't have the right to escort you out of the hotel if you want to rent a room, for example. You also have the right to inspect it first. Indicating that you will compare it with the number of "Atlantis" - will give you the right to "leave without paying." They just kick out simple onlookers. Those who intend to settle are smiled at full height. )))
More confidence and go! $100 on the line
аватар Biker_Oksana
I am confused)))))
аватар tourexpert
What do you think, it's not a scam. Anyone can inquire about the cost of the room and see it. Suddenly you want to spend an unforgettable night in it. )))
And 100 dollars can be spent for the whole day at the Atlantis water park (at the same time to see the aquarium there) and there will also be left over for cocktails from the change))))
аватар Biker_Oksana
*thumbs up* :)))))

Alpusechka, please tell me, were you allowed to take pictures inside during the excursion to Burj Al Arab?
аватар Alpusechka
I will write to you soon
аватар Biker_Oksana
Thank you!

As was the case in 2008 (could change). You will see "common areas": halls, lobbies, toilets on the 1st floor, fountains between the lobby and the 2nd floor, a side aquarium (see Sergey Doli's blog) and fountains on the 2nd floor + elevator ride with entry into the waiting rooms of floors of different significance . Al-Ivan on the 2nd floor. You can take a picture of everything and everywhere. Apart from Al Ivan's buffet. Don't try on your own there. Look, look, and dinner? Allow yourself this, dress up, make up, enjoy. Drinks will be paid, and, as far as I remember, does not depend on their category ???-See the menu.
аватар Biker_Oksana
I have already included dinner in the trip estimate))
But I got confused again. It turns out that there is an excursion inside the Burj Al Arab With and WITHOUT dinner? Because it has already been discussed here that you can’t get there WITHOUT dinner.
Allow yourself this, dress up, make up, enjoy.
------
How do you read my mind!
аватар Alpusechka
Oksana, I can’t answer for sure whether it’s possible to get there without dinner. I got there “through dinner.” You will learn about the options by arriving at the place and talking with the sellers of the excursions. Rather, without dinner, the option is also possible, why not for your money, just will be cheaper.
