- WATCH IN FULL SCREEN TO READ CAPTIONS
Or just read them down here:
0:11 Alcohol is only available in hotels and is VERY expensive
0:15 So stock up at the Duty Free store in the airport. Each person is allowed 4 bottles
1:14 There are no addresses in Dubai, so finding your way around can be confusing
1:41 Bus Tours are a great way to get familiar with the city, without having to worry about getting lost
1:55 Historically, Dubai's economy was built on the oil industry
2:00 Today, oil only accounts for 5% of their economy. Most money comes from Tourism, Real Estate and Financial services.
2:32 Average rainfall in February is 1.4in. The average temperature is 77F. The summer avg is 104!
2:57 The creek divides two main sections of the city: Deria and Bur Dubai. Both have multiple Souq's. (markets)
3:11 To cross the creek, you can take one of these Abra's. It will only cost you 1DH(25 cents!)
3:47 You can see the Sheikh's face just about anywhere...
4:08 1/5 of the worlds cranes are located in Dubai
4:28 Dubai is quickly beaming a world class luxury tourist destination
4:33 In 2012, more people visited the Dubai mall than New york City (52 million!)
If we had taken this tour BEFORE trying to find the cultural center we wouldn't have gotten lost....
This is a hop on, hop off bus tour. Each ticket is good for 24 hours. Great way to get familiar with the city and get over jet lag without pushing yourself too hard.

i love the lil captions so cute!
Can't wait to see the next video! :-D
great video! went to dubai for a week and saw more of it in this video than I did then!
I was surprised to see how vacant the streets were. I wish could have read the pop ups but were too small on iPhone. Thx for taking us to Dubai. I would love to see more. Hugs! C PS. I was too lazy to sign into personal YT account.
so cool! the buildings are beautiful!
nice editing, Ilike the little notes, could read them fine in full screen
Haha I could name every place you showed in the video. Been here for 12 years. . Great video! Enjoy your stay :)
Great vid
Even at full screen - cannot read your captions. : (
I am so glad you are back!
Love to watch your travel vids.
I found this so weird to watch! I lived in Dubai for 7 years, and recently moved from there last June, and this video made me want to go back and visit it!
Really looking forward to more of the videos :D
I got really sad when the video ended, because I wanted to see more! I can't wait until Friday! :)
yay youre back :D
Captions only worked in full screen, but overall an AMAZING travel vlog. Can't wait to see the rest of your footage.
this is so cool :) and the fact that i can read everything in arabic and english makes it even cooler :)
Watching your video brought back memories for me since I was there almost two years ago! No one walks around there, your landlady was no wrong :) We went on the same safari tour you did and got engaged at sunset! Our driver was an awesome crazy driver but super fun! Looks like you enjoyed it too. Dubai is an interesting place to visit but don't think I would go back....
Loved this video! Very excited about the whole series...It's my dream to travel the Middle East, and nice to see a young woman my age doing just that.
Aww loved it xD
This brought back a lot of memories.I spent some time in Dubai while on station in the Persian Gulf. Did you get a chance to go to Wild Wadi Water Park, one of the best water parks that I've been to. Also the Sunset dune tours were a lot of fun too. Awesome footage looking forward to more.
Great job. Hey when are you and Alli Trippy going out again? Your videos are so fun. It makes me want to travel.
Looks nice!
The little thought bubble notes were really cute!
Thank you! :)
i love the factoids, such a cool addition!
Love the mini informative linz but I cannot read the annotations without my glasses lol
good guide.
lool the side walk made me laugh
Love it
awesome video, as an emarati i feel happy that you checked out the souq and the creek and explored the culture rather than heading to the malls and beaches like the stereotypical tourist :D
thanks!
Awh, you're making me miss Dubai so much :(
I loved how you had that little girl pop up with information. That was a really good idea, but the writing was soo small!! haha I was having trouble seeing it, but maybe it's just me because I have horrible eye sight. Making it bigger in another video might be something you should try. Other than that I thought the video was awesome!! Thanks for sharing!
did the captions remind anyone else of Lizzie McGuire? Great video Lindsey :D
Dubai is amazing. Have fun!
What camera are you using? Great editing btw:)
super, dubai was the best place I've ever been
Awesome video. Kinda feel like I just went on a 5minute holiday to Dubai without moving from my bed.
i missed you :)
This is great but just one constructive criticism, the annotations, or the tip bits in the lower left corner could be a little bit thicker :)
Great video though everything looks really cool!
awsome i want to go there so very badly!!!
What really struck me was that the entire city was built on the oil industry, an industry that has been going for barely more than a century and in the middle east for much less. Really shows how young the place is.
On another note would it be possible to label some of the major buildings in future videos? Not all of them of course but, for example, the building with the flags outside (4:45) is evidently important but I have no idea what it is.
Dubai is a good place for tourism ONLY... some of the places are VERY expensive, especially the big hotel chains there. Discrimination is very easy to see once you get past the "touristy" feel of the place. I heard from a few friends that stayed there long term and one of them said that as long as you're not carrying a major "western" passport (what she said), they hold it once you start working with them for the duration of your contract.
loved the video, but could u make the captions a little bit bigger please :)
Dubai looks amazing
i miss DUBAI ... i am studying abroad ... and i miss it X(
cool, Tootles... Wade
Agreed. Text needs to be a lil BIGGER. Think of other on Mobiles. Great Stuff Linz!
I was there last year!
hahah at 3:39 that Dubai museum
Agree!!!
I liked the little annotations you put in the bottom left. But please make the text a lot bigger. It's impossible to read them on the TV or on mobile ;-)
heh..yah we took taxi cabs when the ship i was stationed on pulled in there...although it looks like a lot has happened there in 13 years.
Dubai's economy is not based on oil, it doesn't have much oil fields/reserves. Dubai has been a trade center and had a trade-based economy way before the discovery of oil. Abu Dhabi, it's bigger sister and capital city is where the oil is at.
OMG You're in Dubai!! If only there were more viewers here, you could do a meet up!
I live as an expat in the UAE, its not that pricey, there's tons you can do for little money or none really. I live about an hour out of dubai in another city, and I've driven so many times to Dubai and just sat on the beach next to the Burj Al Arab. It depends what you want to do. There's a lot you can do in the other emirates for cheap as well. I guess it's matter of of personal taste in activities and knowing a city a bit better. If you want to travel here, it could be totally worth while.
That's just untrue. My dad is in property development, and I know labourers here in the UK aren't treated nearly as abysmally as they are in Dubai.
i live there and its an amazing city! its so cool to see my city on youtube and knowing each and every place she goes to! this so fucking cool!!
It's quite easy to get lost in Dubai, especially now that they've changed all the street names. What was wrong with 'Emirates Road' now it is 'Shaikh Mohammad Bin Zayed Road' and another road is 'Emirates Road'. I've lived in Dubai for six years and it is an amazing city. I've actually made some videos about it on my own CZcams channel, so if you'd like to see learn little of what I've learnt about Dubai culture, I'd invite you to watch.
you are brave to travel there........looks beautiful but I don't think I'd go.....
Have you seen a documantary by vice about "the slaves of dubai"?
Very good video imo
Its the Atlantis, located at the palm Island :) We snorkel there and they have an awesome water park, and i think it was built in 2007 or 08 i guess :)
Wow I want to go to Dubai now
great video the only thing i would change is the size of the writing i would make it just a little bigger as i found it hard to read
Question? if i wanna stay there for like 10 days in a apartment, will it be cheaper than going to a hotel? if yes can you please give me a website or something that will help me. Thank you, nice video by the way :)
hello, I am visiting dubai for the first time this november and i just wanted to know if you booked this bus tour in advance? Please could you reply thank you.....btw love ur videos :)
looks fun
oh god, you went to dubai in MARCH, you guys should have went earlier in december-january months...so many things to do in the winter months
I see this time you're carrying two professional cameras..one is sony NEX..hmm you learned from your blurry cam on ur thailand trip :p. Well cant wait for the next chapter..
