How to travel from/to Dubai Airport to your hotel.
A Thread. 🧵
When you travel to Dubai you either arrive at Terminal 1 or 3.
Both the terminals are very well connected to Metro station Airport T1/Airport T3 respectively on Red Line.
If your hotel is in Union, you may get down at Union Metro which is connecting point for Red/Green Line.
If your hotel is in Bur Dubai, then get down at Burjuman on Red Line and shift to Green Line and get down at Sharaf DG. Good budget friendly hotels like Majestic, Four Points, Golden Sands falls within 1 KM of Sharaf DG Metro.

When you are travelling to Dubai, always make sure currency exchange is done before hand from India itself as it will save you a lot of cash.
I have withdrawn 60000 Rs in cash from India that I took to Dubai where I wanted to buy Gold. The exchange rate offered 2490 Dhiram at the rate of 24.09 Rs which is the lowest I got from Gold Souq, while in Bur Dubai the lowest offered was 24.39 Rs for 60000 Rs. For lower amounts, rate was as high as 24.5 Rs.
Desert Safari is one of the most adventurous activity one must go for if travelling to Dubai not because of Dune Bashing but all because of riding the Land Cruiser through the desert.
Dune Bashing -
Dune Bashing is available in an individual ride as well as ride for couple together. There are multiple options to choose from to travel within the boundary defined by them or go to a larger extent. But 1st option is enough to have super fun.
It is easily covered by Metro - Dubai Mall/Burj Khalifa Metro that falls on Red Line. The mall is internally connected and there is no need to go outside Metro. It’s a 15 minutes walk from Metro to a lift that goes to 124th Floor.
Ski Dubai.
Ski Dubai falls on Mall of the Emirates metro station on Red Line. Come out of metro station and enter into the Mall of the Emirates right opposite to the station. Ski Dubai is located at the ground floor itself.
