1. If you are satisfied with the dates and the hotel included in the package - why not?
2. there are fish, but they are unpretentious, it is better to take a ticket to the sea on the spot
3. water - fresh milk :)
4. optional - most city hotels carry their guests on their own bus - FREE OF CHARGE! only you have to pay for the entrance to the beach - 5 dirhams. and it will be active and informative in the evening to walk around the city, the bay, the canal, restaurants, shops (damn, I wanted to go to Dubai again :))
5. There are a lot of excursions, I advise you to take the brochure of the Aladdin company - you won’t find it cheaper, and the package of excursions is the same for everyone, and you can make some excursions yourself :)
6. The main currency is dirhams, but dollars are also accepted. There are quite a few exchangers, as well as ATMs.
good rest!

It depends on where the burning ticket will be. There are few fish in the coastal zone, so you should not count on the Egyptian beauties, the water there is warm all year round. In Dubai, hotels with access to the sea are quite expensive, so look at your finances, in my opinion it is better to take a good three in the city. There are many excursions, ranging from sightseeing tours of Dubai itself, Abu Dhabi with a visit to a mosque, a Ferrari park, a safari, a trip to the Indian Ocean and more (these are the most common and most sought after). You can pay not only with dirhams, they accept both dollars and euros, but it is more profitable to pay with dirhams in general.

I agree with everything written above EXCEPT "you can pay with dollars and euros" NO! THEY TAKE ONLY DIRHAMS (except for DUTY FREE), neither dollars nor euros have been taken from us anywhere.

We arrived very late and were worried that in the morning there would be no dirhams to get to the beach, we changed a little at the airport. But there was a Lu-Lu supermarket not far from the hotel, we paid in dollars there, and they gave us change in dirhams. Then there were no problems, if we did not have enough dirhams, we paid extra in dollars there. But in some places they definitely do not take dollars. For example, a ticket to the beach. Something like that.

1. If the meaning of a last-minute tour is that it is cheaper, then it probably makes sense to take it.
2. I didn’t see the fish.
3. I was in Dubai for 9 days from April 1, 2012. The sand on the beach was already hot, the water was warm.
4. Hotels on the coast ochchch. expensive - we took an apartment in the city with a free shuttle to the beach. We often took a taxi because a taxi is cheap, and there were 4 of us.
5. We have already said about the excursions - there are many of them, but it is worth ordering a sightseeing tour of Dubai in any case if you are in Dubai for the first time. When I go there for the second time, I won’t buy a review, of course.
6. Upon arrival, I immediately bought dirhams - this is much more convenient. Paying in Dubai in dollars or euros is the exception rather than the rule.

1. Of course, only burning ones!
2. There are fish only on Fujieira and only on the beach in a single hotel.
3. Sea in March Persian Gulf: +20...+21C, Indian Ocean: +22C.
4. In Dubai - of course not, because the sea is cool to swim in the pool anyway.
5. Mandatory excursions: 7 emirates, a sightseeing tour of Dubai, a water park on the Palm, an amusement park Formula 1 in Abu Dhabi.
6. Only dirhams.
5.

1. on a last minute trip? - it makes sense, but do not forget that you need to wait at least 3 days for a visa!
2. Are there fish in the sea like in Egypt? - there are no multi-colored fish in Dubai, only transparent gray needlefish and small fry are different.
3. Is the water warm in March? - warm and water and sand.
4. with access to the sea? - such hotels are much more expensive, and still after dinner in the city. It's better within the city-metro, there are more cafes, snack shops.
5. Are there excursions? - many excursions, the most popular sightseeing tours in Dubai, in Abu Dhabi, the Sheikh Zayedi Mosque and many others.
6. Is the currency only dirhams? We paid in dollars in stores, and we were given change in Dirhams and in the check the full calculation was $ 1 = 3.67 dirhams. If you change in the bank, then the rate is $ 1 = 3.66
