Dubai Travel Tips for First-Time Indian Visitors (2026 Guide)

Visa & Entry#

Indian passport holders need a tourist visa for Dubai. B2B Holidays processes the 30-day visa in 3–5 working days as part of every Dubai package — you only provide passport scan and photo.

When to Go#

November to March is peak season — pleasant 20–28°C ideal for desert safari and outdoor attractions. Summer (Jun–Aug) is brutally hot (45°C+) but offers up to 50% lower hotel rates.

Must-Book Experiences#

These three sell out fast — book before you fly:

• Burj Khalifa 'At The Top' — 124th & 148th floor
• Evening Desert Safari with BBQ dinner
• Dhow Cruise on Dubai Marina or Creek

Etiquette & Dress Code#

Dubai is liberal but malls, mosques and government buildings expect modest dress (shoulders & knees covered). Public displays of affection are discouraged. Alcohol is legal in licensed venues — not in public spaces.
