Lonely Planet Pocket Dubai (Travel Guide)

I always travel for just few days to different cities and I absolutely love those small pocket size guides from Lonely Planet. Just perfect with details and pictures. I have already 4 of them from all the different cities and I will definitively buy another when planning to go to discover new city. Definitely recommend, quick read, small and includes map of the city center.

Just got back from Dubai. I must admit, without the book, we would've been quite bored and would've spent a lot more money. It was very accurate, saved us some money and helped give us a good bearing on what to do, where and when. The only reason I didn't give this a 5 star rating is because it would've been even better if the maps could've been a bit more detailed. At least then we wouldn't have attempted to walk to places that look soo close on the map when in fact, you needed a car.

This proved to be a really useful guide. It offered advice and tips on everything from culture to taxis. I'm glad I purchased this prior to travelling.

The Dubai Guides , small and easy to carry around , but too small to see for map area. info is also good

This perfect sized guide to Dubai is very good, including a pull out map at the back. It gives clear and informative details about each region, plus near by places like Abu Dhabi. It also helps with custom do's and don'ts in this more liberal but still strict muslim country. Though pocket/small bag size it is bit on information. I highly recommend it to any traveller to Dubai.

This book gives a detailed look at Dubai with some very good tips. The different areas are covered completely. Restaurants are detailed as well

Bought this as a birthday gift for a friend who is visiting Dubai in Feb. She was delighted with book and has read it through twice. Good value for money pocket size excellent.

This is a good little pocket guide for Dubai and includes some information on Abu Dhabi also. Most of the essential information on hotels restaurants and attractions is included. Photos are disappointing on the black and white Kindle and the guide is better used on smart phones and ipads (Kindle apps). Hyperlinks are included and links to Google maps also - these will not work on a Kindle. The included maps are rather too small to be useful but again on a smart phone of pad one can zoom in on them making them rather more functional. On a smart phone it truly is a "pocket" guide.
