Things to do near Sheikh Zayed Road

Just near to Sheikh Zayed Road is the wonderful Jumeirah Beach, with soft white sands and iconic views of the Burj Al Arab hotel. Relax out in the sun, go for a swim or enjoy a barbecue in the public portion of the beach. You can also talk a walk around the Dubai Marina Walk or rent a boat for a few hours, or even the whole day, from the Dubai Marina Yacht Club.

Of course, one of the main things visitors want to see is the Palm Jumeirah, filled with its luxurious resorts and restaurants. Take a speedboat around the island or take in the best views with a skydive up above it.

Top attractions

Panoramic views of the city await when you visit the observation deck of the 828m Burj Khalifa tower. Come for the views and stay for a luxury meal at At.mosphere on level 122. The top destination for shoppers is, of course, the Dubai Mall. This retail paradise contains over 1,200 shops as well as 150 restaurants, an ice rink, indoor theme park, aquarium and indoor waterfall.

Best restaurants

Pierchic, named after its location on the pier, offers some of Dubai’s finest seafood as well as beautiful, unspoiled views of the Gulf. Nathan Outlaw at Al Mahara is another excellent seafood restaurant, best known for its extraordinary settings. The unique eatery is set in a huge aquarium complex that leaves diners feeling they are underwater.





Types of HolidayTaxis transfer vehicles
March 31, 2023

At HolidayTaxis, we recognize that every traveler is different and may have their own preferences and requirements for their airport transfers. To accommodate this, we offer a diverse range of transfer vehicles for our customers to choose from, each with its own set of benefits and advantages.

For example, if you're traveling in a large group, our minibus or shared airport shuttle transfers might be the best option for you, as they can comfortably accommodate a larger number of passengers and their luggage. On the other hand, if you're traveling with just one or two companions, a private car may be more suitable for you as they offer a more intimate and personalised experience.
