Dubai is an exciting city to travel to and if you are heading to Dubai you are going to have to be cautious about what you are going to pack with you for the trip.
If there is one thing that you absolutely will not forget to pack that is definitely clothing. However, when it comes to packing clothes sometimes you tend to pack more unwanted items than the pieces you will actually need on your trip. Dubai is a warm country but all indoor spaces are air-conditioned and you will rarely be walking in broad daylight in the humid weather. If you are looking to take a camel ride or a safari in the desert, do pack a cotton-based coverup, scarf, or hoodie so you do not get burnt in the scorching sun. Keep in mind that Dubai is somewhat conservative when it comes to clothing and it is not recommended to wear mini dresses, tank tops, or tube dresses for women, and men are encouraged to wear long shorts and T-shirts with sleeves. These conditions do not apply to the hotel you are staying at such as Avani Deira Dubai Hotel because you can be comfortable and wear what you like within the hotel premises.
If you do intend to do a lot of outdoor exploring it is best to have a pair or two of walking shoes with you so you do not get cuts and bruises on your feet from walking in sandals or barefoot. While it is not essential to wear shoes when you are indoors, especially at malls and museums, you will be required to dress smart casual when you go to certain restaurants and many a hotel in Dubai Deira. So it will be a good idea to have a decent pair of sandals and flats so you can dress-up in case you are required to.
It is a good idea to pack your own toiletries when you head to Dubai as even the basic products like Shampoo, conditioner, toothbrushes, and toothpaste are quite expensive. You are able to get your hands on most toiletries from supermarkets and pharmacies in case you forget to bring something along with you. Sunscreen is a must when you travel to Dubai as you will be required and advised to wear it even if you are planning to be shopping that entire day,
While it is quite unlikely you will forget your electronics such as laptop, phone, tab, and other essentials you should keep in mind to pack the chargers and other accessories that are required for the gadgets you are taking. If you are able to take a travel adopter this will be beneficial in case the locations you go to are not able to provide you with one. While Dubai is a great place to purchase electronics it is not the best location to purchase accessories for existing products you already own.
Having a first-aid kit with you might seem unnecessary but if you do find the requirement for basic medication it will be a lot easier to access your fir-aid kit than rushing to a hospital or pharmacy. Remember to pack your daily medication if you require any, along with any allergy medication and painkillers.
