Single mum travelling alone with kid

Hey!

I’m a single mum, and have a son who’s 6 years old mashAllah. We don’t get to have many off days as I work full time, but I’ve finally managed to get 6 days off in february. My son really wants to see Dubai (he has a friend who visited Dubai), and well now I have booked tickets for us two. We will be having 5 days in Dubai. BUT! I am travelling with him alone, and I have no friends or family in Dubai.

Where should we go? And what places should we see?

Re: Single mum travelling alone with kid

Wild Wadi
Dubai fountains and Burj Khalifa
Desert Safari
Magic Planet - inside most malls, has rides for most kids
Creek side Park - cable car ride as well as playground
Abra boat trip across the creek
Speed boat or dinner cruise on creek
Kidzania and Sega Republic
IFly Dubai
Aqua zone- midriff centre

Have a look on tripadvisor dubai things to do, and read people's reviews. These are just some of the things we did, we used to spend a lot of time in the pool as my daughter loves the water.

Also it's very safe there, so don't worry about being on your own.

Re: Single mum travelling alone with kid

You can't go wrong with any of the suggestions given here! Dubai is a wonderland of sensations and experiences no matter where you go lol. Also, don't forget the aquarium at Dubai Mall!

Have fun!

Jazak Allah khair everyone :) Was a little nervous just being us two in a place I know no one, but I guess it'll be good inshAllah :)

Once again, Jazak Allah khair.

Be sure to buy The Entertainer coupon book. You’d want the Dubai FAMILY book, not the kids book. Read more online: The Entertainer - Site

Thank you muscat99, I'll definately buy one :)

Re: Single mum travelling alone with kid

may i ask you why you chose Dubai instead of any European City or the Singapore, Malaysia or Hong Kong? i just wanna know why so many people go like to go to Dubai.

Re: Single mum travelling alone with kid

Because I live in europe, and we've travelled europe in and out :) And as I only have a few days off, can't really travel too far, jahan aadhi chuttiyaan safar mein guzar jayen :) That's why! :)

Re: Single mum travelling alone with kid

For the kid, bets part will be Wild Wadi, Kidzania, IFly, Dolphin show. You can also go to Ferrari World in Abu Dhabi, just 2 hours from Dubai.
