Review by DMB for Top 10: Dubai & Abu Dhabi (Eyewitness Travel Guides)

I got this book as a guide for a five-day trip to Dubai, and it was extremely helpful. It is a small and skinny 128-page book, which meant it fit in my purse and could easily be brought out for quick reference to all of the remarkable sites of Dubai. It is easy to read with great facts and helpful travel tips. I highly recommend it for someone going to Dubai for a shorter stay – if you are going there for a long (over two weeks) time, you will probably want something that digs a little deeper. If I had one complaint, it would be that the maps of the Deira souqs (bazaar) area were not detailed enough. Dubai is not a walkable city, but the souqs of Deira can really only be explored on foot. If you get lost or turned around, it can be rather disorienting. That one portion of the city map could have had more streets listed to assist with that.

This book is small enough to travel with, and yet is chock-full of great information for traveling in Dubai. I checked with friends who had traveled there, and they said the information was quite good and accurate. I’ll be checking out the recommendations personally in a few months!

This book, like all the eyewitness guides, essnentially renders all other travel guides obsolete. It is plenty of photos are descriptions of all the major sights. It is brief, but, to be frank, a brief discussion is about all you need on a small topic like Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
If you are planning a trip to these areas, this guide is sufficient. As to whether you will actually enjoy a trip to these areas, that is a personal preference. I will certainly not be visiting them a second time.
