Towering mirrored walls of sleek glass soaring into a cloudless deep-blue sky, glittering chandeliers hanging high above opulent hotel lobbies, and more designer label shopping than any one person really needs, Dubai has a serious reputation to live up to. However, some of its most memorable sights – the bustling water taxis, the intoxicating scents of neatly towering spices in the spice souk, or starlight safari won't break the bank!
