Dubai Travel Agent Specialist

DUBAI is one of the most unique cities in the world, it is a traveler’s dream. The Emirate of Dubai is the second largest of the seven United Arab Emirates. The official language of the country is Arabic, most people in and out of the workplace communicate in English. There are so many different nationalities in Dubai and therefore English is common with most people. Dubai’s is located on the Persian Gulf, to the northeast of the United Arab Emirates. It is poised to expand to twice the size with the addition of man-made islands. Its cityscape is always transient and ever-changing with its constant urge to construct bigger and better than before. Dubai constantly competes with itself, trying to magnetize tourists to a dream-like world of attractions. Dubai strictly safeguards its traditional Islamic roots but allows space for other religions. Globalization and immigration have transformed the Emirate into a melting pot of diverse nationalities over the past fifty years. Dubai’s society is open to all cultures, when tourists visit Dubai, they must respect the culture and behave accordingly, the minority groups in the Emiratis are very protective of their Islamic culture and traditions. The most religious time of the year is the Holy Month of Ramadan, which lasts for about thirty days. This is when Muslims fast during daylight hours to fulfill their duties to the fourth pillar of Islam. During that period eating, drinking, and smoking is not permitted in public during the day, some restaurants blackout their windows to allow people to consume food and beverage in private. Nightclubs are shut down as no loud music is allowed, and bars will not serve alcohol before 7:00pm. Dubai has other religious places to worship, such as churches, gurdwaras and temples. Emiratis tends to dress in their traditional clothes influenced by their Islamic belief. Most men prefer the traditional dishdasha or khandura (a long white shirtdress), with ghutra (a white headdress) and agal (a rope worn to keep the ghutra in place). The Emirati women tend to wear an abaya (a long black cloak), which is worn over conservative clothes, with a sheyla or hijab (a scarf used to wrap around the face and head). Expatriates and visitors are advised to dress appropriately; trousers or a dress should be worn to cover below the knee, when circulating the city especially at historical sites. They can wear what they wish when they are in a hotel, bar, or club. Dubai is the second wealthiest emirate in the UAE, after Abu Dhabi which is the capital state. The city is a trade and tourist destination with its port (JebeL Ali) operates at the centre of export trade in the Middle East. Most of Dubai’s beaches are man-made, so they are flat and wide, with soft white sand. Jumeriah beaches is the biggest beach in Dubai. La Mar is one of Dubai’s newest beaches with water sports, shopping, and dining. Umm Suqeim beach is one of only a few beaches in Dubai that is lighted at night and allows night swimming, and one of the only surf breaks in Dubai. Kite beach is a section of Umm Suqeim beach near the north end. It is a wide flat beach where you go to Kayak, Paddleboard, kite surfers or kite flying. Al Mamzar is a family beach, with a picnic area, a playground for kids, and two large swimming pools. The Palm Jumeriah is a palm frond-shaped artificial archipelago development project out into the Persian Gulf. There are no public beaches on the Palm, all the beaches are part of the luxury residential neighborhoods or apartment buildings. So let me help you go to the top of the tallest building in the world, see the largest gold ring in the world, see unique architectures, swim in the beaches, go on a desert safari, go dune bashing, or ride on a camel.

Another great trip!
This is the third time I've worked with Trell to book my international travel, and I'm already looking forward to planning the next one! Trell is so pleasant and timely in her communications. She has always answered all of my questions, provided wonderful recommendations and has managed my crazy requests (flying out of an airport on the East Coast, back into a totally different one) with ease. She will look for all of the best options available, always looking for the most bang for my buck, and present the options to me for the final say. Booking a vacation can be stressful and she takes all of that worry and stress out of the experience! Thank you!!!

Excellent Egypt Vacation
Trellanie planned an absolutely perfect vacation for us! We told her we wanted a mix of adventure, relaxation, and culture and that’s exactly what we got! All of our excursions were great and we really enjoyed the Egyptologist we were scheduled with. She recommended fabulous restaurants and truly knew how to make the most of our time in Egypt! We didn’t have to lift a finger which made the trip even better/easier for us! We highly recommend Trellanie to all of our friends and family - you can trust in her and know you’re going to have a fantastic vacation!

Best Beach Vacation Ever!
Trellanie was wonderful about providing a number of different options for our most recent trip. We were somewhat undecided about where we wanted to go, and Trellanie answered every question we had about different destinations. This high level of service is what we have always received from Trellanie - she makes planning a vacation almost as relaxing as the vacation itself. We will keep coming back to Trellanie because she never disappoints!

My go to travel agent
We have worked with Trell a couple of times now and have recommended her to a few other couples who have used her as well, saving time and money over doing it yourself online.
