Dubai can be a pretty expensive city, and this is pretty much no secret now. But still, the city’s metropolitan and appealing aesthetics pull us back- every single time.

If you’ve already visited Dubai then you might be able to relate to the fact that you come back home, sometimes penniless from getting carried away in the UAE.

However, we’re here (cue superhero soundtrack) to help you finance and budget your next trip to Dubai- in style.

Oh yes, it’s possible. Keep on reading.

1. Book out your flights earlier in advance

Booking everything out in advance means giving yourself more time to check out the cheaper options.

2. Ride the metro, tram or take the Careem

Metro rides from one end to another will only cost you as much as SAR12 with return trips. Taking the tram in the Marina area is a good way to get a good view of the city’s sights from a slightly slower-moving mode of transportation.

3. Attend public events (there’s guaranteed to be at least one every week)

Festivals, concerts, park gatherings and foodie scenes are scattered across the city. You can even check our sister site, Lovin Dubai, for weekly round-ups of public events taking place.

4. Ditch the tourist mobile data packages since there’s mostly wifi wherever you go in Dubai

Most malls, restos, cafés and even air-conditioned bus stops, + the metro stations all have Dubai’s public wifi. Saving a few bucks on the otherwise pricey mobile data packages.

5. Eat in Old Dubai (for cheaper and sometimes more delicious food)

Nothing like a SAR5 shawarma with the fries inside. Yum.

6. When in doubt, Groupon it out

Seriously, this website is a life-saver. They’ve got deals on practically everything; from dune rides, spa offers, restaurant deals and many more touristic activities for LESS.

Make the most of this website while you’re in Dubai. Especially useful for bigger groups of travelers roaming the city together.
