Dubai, the gleaming financial capital of the United Arab Emirates, is now home to nearly 3.5 million visitors in the course of its famous Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF). Known in Arabic as ' Layali Dubai', DSF has been a success since 1996 when the Dubai government first introduced the event to promote and showcase retail trade. Today it is an annual shopping, entertainment, and cultural extravaganza that continues to draw tourism to Dubai. Held between January and February, the festival has incredible bargains, promotions and raffle draws for every type of shopper. Imagine how you could drive away in a Lexus with just a raffle coupon worth AED 200. The anticipation of the festival among shoppers has been recognized even by travel operators. Whether you are flying out from the UK or from India, your local carriers are bound to have attractive packages on offer.
The rest of the year too Dubai remains a shopper’s paradise with the likes of IKEA, Carrefour, Tiffany & Co, Rivoli, Spinney’s, Giordano, Delsey and an assortment of other world-famous brands occupying prime retail space in Dubai. Its sprawling malls have an average of 250 retail outlets across multiple level buildings. Make the most of your shopping experience by staying at an affordable hotel located at a convenient distance from the main shopping hubs. For instance, if you want to visit the Mall of Emirates you could consider staying at a comfortable 3-star budget hotel nearby. This way you will save on the effort and expense of travel while you stay in comfort without compromising on a tour of the shopping malls.
When you pack your bags for Dubai, come prepared with extra baggage space to carry home your shopping experience. The Dubai shopper tends to go big or go home, as reflected at the duty-free shopping at the Dubai International Airport, which recorded a sales figure of $1.1bn last year, placing it ahead of both London's Heathrow and Seoul's Incheon International Airport. With the choicest places to shop at, you can save on other activities by keeping an eye out on new budget offers geared to offer comfort at a price that suits your purse. Even if you are a busy, overnight business traveler drop in to this duty-free shopping haven, it is easier than ever to make the most of your trip with such attractive traveler friendly offers.
