Dubai A Popular Spur-of-the-Moment Destination

Dubai a top destination for Spur of the moment holidays

It has been revealed that Dubai is a popular destination for UK travellers wanting to make a spur-of-the-moment holiday booking. Post Office Travel Money said that Christmas and New Year's Eve blues often lead to people booking holidays. With sun and glamour in mind, Dubai is the ideal place.

A city of towering office space and beautiful hotels, Dubai is an incredible destination for travellers wanting to indulge themselves. The spice and gold souks are ideal for exploring in the day, with holidaymakers able to indulge in the Middle East's more traditional side.

Away from the souks, Dubai's malls offer a real treat for shoppers, and the Emirates Mall in particular will delight many looking for cheap deals and lots of spending. Meanwhile, Wild Wadi Water Park, located in the centre of Dubai, makes the perfect place to enjoy the day's heat. When the evening arrives, cocktails in some of the coast's popular hotels, such as the Jumeirah Beach, offer beautiful views across the water.

With Dubai being relatively inexpensive, it is the ideal option for those wanting to travel on a budget in the New Year. With a hot climate, it is the perfect last minute destination to avoid the British weather.
