Progress and man-made wonders go hand in hand when you are in Dubai. Starting as nothing more than a small oasis in the middle of the desert, Dubai today is a metropolis of gigantic proportions. It is a city with so much to do so if you are visiting here's how to pack to get the most out of it.
A neck wallet is a great item to keep all your valuables in and then close to you. It is much bigger than a regular wallet so you can have all your items inside it including travel documents, passports and other valuables such as jewellery. These kinds of neck wallets are also great to keep all your products safe and at the same time carefully organized. If you are planning to visit crowded areas and hope to take your valuables with you without leaving them in the locker of your hotel the likes of Oaks Ibn Battuta Gate Dubai.
Jet Lag is something you are bound to have on a flight to Dubai. If you don't have the time to spend sleeping it off but would rather go exploring immediately then having a few jet lag pills on your person is a good idea. The pills are a homoeopathic remedy and can be quite a lifesaver in situations. Especially if you are the kind of person who is knocked out cold by jet lag and want to stay awake until you find yourself in the safety of your 5 star hotel in Dubai.
This is a given no matter where you are going. If you are going abroad, make sure you take a universal power adapter with you. It will work anywhere in the world. In most cases, you can plug in many devices onto a universal adapter. As it will turn out to be a great investment in the future, make sure you get a good one that will last you a long time.
If you are travelling to hot countries and aren't used to the humidity having a USB powered travel fan is a great idea. In Dubai, you can't always stay indoors in the AC especially if you want to explore the city. Hence, having a fan on hand is a great idea. Because you can charge it by plugging it in you won't have to waste money on things like batteries.
One of the best things to do is to pack everything using packing cubes. This is something that has found its way into the mainstream quite recently and is a great option for those who are bad at playing Tetris with their clothes. You can put different sizes and different items in different packing cubes and pack a clean suitcase. You don't even have to work about unpacking or searching for a certain item within your suitcase anymore.
