From its vibrant city centre right out into the deepest depths of the desert, we’ve discovered a whole lot of wonder in Dubai. From strolling around the bustling markets and relaxing on a pristine stretch of sandy beach to heading out on an off-road adventure across the dunes, we’ve found plenty to sink our teeth into. We’ve selected a few of our favourite Dubai videos to give you a little taste of local life.
Offering up a glimpse into the spectacular landscapes of the city, we love watching Philip Bloom uncover some of Dubai’s most alluring scenes. A stylish homage to some of Dubai’s most impressive cityscapes.
Gunther Machu takes us through Dubai’s lively city streets in a colourful exploration of local life. From café culture to market stalls, this video provides a great window into everyday life in the city.
When it comes to extreme sports, Dubai is an adrenaline junkie’s dream. We were completely wowed by the aerial views of the city as Bloom falls from the sky from 13,000 feet.
Check out some of the hottest spots in the city as Aaron Mendez makes his way around town. Watch intrepid travellers try their hand at sand boarding and camel riding before enjoying some downtime at a local beach bar.
We love the personal feel to this video as we’re introduced to various local characters across the city. Soak up the sights and sounds of street food stands and market stalls and discover life behind the skyscrapers.
