Avoid wearing clothes that expose too much skin. Always wear your shoes. You will not be allowed barefoot or in swimsuits in the hotel brunch area if you come straight from the pool. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Dinners are fun in Dubai as you can wear anything you want without being indecent. Ladies can get ready to party in their cocktail dresses.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, make sure you are dressed in smart-casuals or formals when dining at some posh hotel like Atmosphere in Burj Khalifa or Skyview Bar at Burj Al Arab. It&#8217;s mandatory on your part to maintain the dress code of the restaurant you are having brunch or dinner in.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"text-align: left;\">\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Desert_Safari\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Desert Safari<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-10462\" src=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Desert-Safari-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"Desert Safari\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Desert-Safari-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Desert-Safari-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Desert-Safari-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.squareyards.ae\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/10\/Desert-Safari.jpg 1256w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you are going on a desert safari, be mindful that you will be staying there for an entire day. So, wear loose and as comfortable clothes as possible. Make sure not to wear anything short as the desert sun can burn your skin, and the local driver can be conservative. Caftans or long dresses are the best choices for women to wear. Men can wear shirts and t-shirts with any pants. For both men and women, wear sandals with straps around the ankles.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_Essentials\"><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other Essentials<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Apart from clothes, there are several other essentials that you need to carry on your Dubai trip.
