What are the most exciting family-friendly experiences in Dubai for children of all ages? - Let kids enjoy the best of Dubai
Planning a family vacation is challenging, especially when you have kids to entertain. Sometimes, they won't like the experiences you would love to have, and sometimes, their preferred activities won't suit yours. And, yes... that sounds a lot like confusion, right? When you are planning your next family tour to Dubai with kids, take the following as a guide. This article includes experiences that your kids would love to enjoy in Dubai. You (although you are an adult) would love them too.
-Visit the tallest structure in the world
Did you know that Dubai owns the tallest structure in the world? It's the infamous 'Burj Khalifa' which has 163 floors standing over 2700 feet above sea level. To let the visitors enjoy birds-eye views of Dubai city, Burj Khalifa offers several open-air viewing decks. There is an admission fee (ticket price) you need to pay at the entrance.
-Visit the Aquaventure Waterpark
Waterparks are loved by kids, and there's no doubt about it. So, when in Dubai, don't forget to explore the Aquaventure Waterpark with your kids. Located in Palm Jumeirah, this waterpark not only offers great entertainment to little ones but to adults too. The tallest waterslide in the world is here (the Odyssey of Terror). So, get ready to enjoy a world-class adventure with your kids!
-Enjoy the Dubai Fountain
Have you explored the Fountains of Bellagio in Vegas? If that amuses you, the Dubai Fountain in Dubai sure will. This is an experience that you can enjoy daily on the Burj Khalifa Lake spanning across an area of 30 acres. This fountain shoots water up to 500 feet and has been specially choreographed to music.
