                <description><![CDATA[The queues at immigration can be huge at peak times. Pre-book the Marhaba service. They will meet you from the jetway, drive you through the crowds and escort you through dedicated lines at immigration. They will then find your baggage whilst you browse the inbound Duty Free. I've saved at least an hour, the best value $21 in the Emirate!]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Fantastic! a great experience..we've been there only 3 days on stop-over but definetely to come back again.A local friend suggested us Net Tours to discover the country and they just showed us the paradise. Fun, Adventure, Culture, Traditions..all over palaces, dunes, unbelievable skylines with a professionality and friendliness we never met before. We went in every corner of Dubai, then continued to Abu Dhabi, Hata over the mountains and the most fascinating place in the desert we ever met. We were lucky to ride the camels and to assist a falcon demonstration. On the way to Abu Dhabi we went to a unknown place and photographed an old Oryx. The emirates are just fascinating and the contrasts among them captured our hearts from the beginning..]]></description>

                <description><![CDATA[Abras are used to ferry people across the creek for 1 dirham. For maybe 70 dirhams (dependent on your negotiating skills and length of journey etc), you can hire an abra for a journey of an hour or more on the creek, taking in the architecture of creek-side Dubai and enjoying a cool(er) breeze under an advertisement-adorned plastic awning. This is a very nice way to spend time in Dubai.]]></description>
