Default Woman Travellers

Despite being a Muslim country, Dubai is a great destination for women travllers. Dress modestly is the key to avoiding stares and disapproval. Physical harassment of women is very rare.

Feminine hygiene products are freely available and many types of contraceptive pills are readily available in pharmacies. Condoms are easily available in supermarkets and pharmacies.

This is true. Women travellers will have a lot of fun and a great experience. There are a lot of things to see. And for the ones that like shopping, there's the Dubai Shopping Festival every year, at least I think its still happens. Women are respected as long as you dress in a moderately modest manner.

It is a heaven for women travelers as far shopping is concerned,I have heard that Dubai has got world class malls.Can a woman travel all alone safely at this place and her stay in hotels is safe.As at most of the places women travelers become target of criminals.

You have heard right sanju. They have many malls and are known for their class. I think women can travel fairly safely and don't think it is an issue. In fact, I know and saw women going there alone. I think because it is such a popular place for tourists, there isn't much of a problem with these kinds of issues.

Women should have a great time shopping in all the malls in Dubai and all the souqs without fear of receiving unwanted attention. What is needed is common sense and a little bit of modesty by not wearing sleevless blouses and shorts.
