Review: Good investment - After our group trip to Dubai, my son decided he wanted to go solo to visit other sites in Dubai and Abu Dhabi. This was an excellent gift and definitely listed sites of many interest. The guide is guide is dated 2025 so you might want 2026. Review: Perfect book to plan your stay! - I love the lonely planet books and this one was just perfect! Everything is synthesized. The recommendations are straight to the point, I like the fact that there are more about places to visit or restaurants than hotels since I always book the hotels before checking the book! Totally worth it!

Finally more useful trip ideas, and pictures!
It looks like Lonely Planet has finally improved the structure and content of their destination books. There’s a lot of pictures, more maps, and plenty of walking tours and day itinerary suggestions packed in this book. Also loving the little tips the book provides that are need to know for tourists! It’s definitely worth the purchase for your next trip to Dubai and/or Abu Dhabi!

Buona guida
Sono una fan delle LP e trovo che anche questa guida sia ben fatta. Preferivo sinceramente i formati precedenti, a mio avviso sia più facili da consultare che più ricchi di informazioni (ad es. su hotel e ristoranti). Le nuove guide hanno anche molte più immagini (in ogni pagina praticamente), il che mi crea un po’ di confusione. Tuttavia rimane una delle migliori secondo me, aggiornata e completa.

A good guide to prepare your trip in the UAE
Very satisfied, a very practical guide, it helped me to prepare my holidays and gave me good tips while on site. It covers not only Abu Dhabi and Dubai, but also daily excursions to other Emirates
