Before visiting the country, it is worth understanding the pros and cons. In today's article we will talk about the disadvantages of rest in the Emirates. Arriving here, you literally find yourself in a fairy tale! Everything is beautiful and modern, tourists want to go around and see everything. But not without disadvantages.
Strict laws
There are a number of restrictions for tourists:
- You can not come with certain medications
- It is forbidden to drink alcoholic beverages
- You can't take photos of local residents and government buildings
- It is forbidden to litter
- It is forbidden to show disrespect to women
- There are restrictions in clothing.
There are other requirements for guests of the country, which are recommended to familiarize yourself with. All restrictions are real, and the violation does not bode well: you can go to jail, get a fine or a ban on entry into the country.
Overpriced
Guests of the UAE come to the conclusion that the rest here is very expensive. Here it will not be possible to save, and they go here ready for this. Dinner for two will cost an average of 500 AED for two, for an umbrella and a sun lounger on the beach you will have to pay from 80 AED, and a tour in the autumn costs from 75,000 rubles.
Boiling summer
We're used to going on vacation in the summer. In the UAE at this time of year it is very hot (+ 50 ° C), it is even impossible to swim - the water heats up, and the sun bakes from above. But in winter, it is also not recommended to go here: in this season there are storms of dust and strong winds.
Not for pedestrians
Visiting the country, you will not be able to walk and see the sights freely, as in the same Europe. Firstly, the weather does not dispose, and secondly, the streets are not adapted for pedestrians. It is better to move around in the Emirates by car.
Beaches with special features
In the UAE, the beaches are clean and spacious, but getting here can be problematic. On the beaches there are "women's days" - a lonely man can not get in. Bathing water depends on the time of year, may be cold and vice versa. Decent beaches are owned by hotels. However, the form of clothing, or rather a swimsuit, should be of a certain type, it is not allowed to open much.
Not all inclusive
Unlike Turkey, there is no "all inclusive" system. If there is such a hotel, it may be expensive or not include alcohol.
Deceit
People who came from other countries work in the service sector. These are not rich people who don't need anything. Especially you should beware of taxi drivers and merchants of trifles, who are trying to cash in on tourists.
