I had 7 days to spend in Dubai whilst working so each evening I tried something new. Ski Dubai is at the end of Mall of the Emirates so there are lots of shops, food stops, etc to see if some of the family don't want to ski. Check out the website first since it is made quite clear that... more

Hey, I went there and had a blast. I've hard to imagine how unreal is feel to hit the slopes when it's 120 degree outside. Don't forget about the Snow Park Cafe and Snow Park itself. Just take a look at ths virtual tour of the place at http://fayettevillevt.com/community_tours/0001/ski_dubai.htm more

Ski Dubai is situated at the Emirates Mall - which means you can go shopping if preferred! There's an indoor viewing platform so you can have a look to see what it's all about... We just turned up, and then found out that if you couldn't ski (none of us could), you weren't allowed on the slopes until you'd had... more

As a theme park it does a great job... go there not wanting fresh powder and various runs and enjoy it for what it is... a theme park and you will have a lot of fun. The Discovery Lesson is great for people who have never touched, seen or skied on snow. the best thing is when it's 42 degrees... more

If you're kids can ski, then this is a great place to come. Mine unfortunately can't. I took my son (3) and daughter (5) to the Ski centre at the end of the very large Mall of the Emirates. Unfortunately, we didn't get to the mall until quite late in the evening and managed to get 2 hours of sledging... more

When I realized we were going to Dubai the first thing that popped into my head was, "We have to ski in Dubai just to say we did it!". We really didn't know how hard the hill was going to be. Where I live, we have multiple world class ski hills within a 2 hours drive, so we know the... more

Ski Dubai is great fun and we go fairly often. Those who say it’s not as good as the real thing are missing the point: it’s indoors and in the middle of a desert for goodness sake! It’s like comparing lying in your bath to swimming in the ocean. The temperature is around -2C so don’t under-estimate how wrapped up... more

Excellant

I did go to Dubai last September, very busy place with hectic transport but patient drivers. A must see is the Arabian Gulf to have a swim in the clear water. Another must see is the Mall of Emirates to watch the snow ski while having a coffee. High tea at the Burg is a must. I would like to... more

This is worth a look at even if you don't wish to ski. Go to the Mall of the Emirates and if you are hungry, go to Apres for food. It is excellent. You can request for a table overlooking Ski Dubai - that's what we did and it was a greta way to spend a couple of hours watching... more

What fun! Ski Dubai was a definite highlight of our trip. A family of skiers, we were impressed with the runs (given that we were in a mall)! The experience was what was most memorable. Skiing indoors in a dessert while watching shoppers and diners through the large glass windows was a hoot! Our 2 hour ski package was just... more
