DUBAI - Revving Up the Luxe
BBC TopGear India|May 2024
A Tesla picks you up from the airport - that's Dubai for you. TopGear India embarked on a quest to uncover the finest cars and indulge in extraordinary experiences during our recent visit to Dubai.
DUBAI - Revving Up the Luxe

Our journey commenced with a visit to the Emaar Sky Deck because observing the Burj Khalifa from ground level seemed too conventional, and Dubai shies away from clichés. The entire skyline resembled a breathtaking painting. The Edge Walk provided a thrilling yet enjoyable experience. A lift equipped with only two buttons-ground floor and 52nd floor - marked the beginning of our Dubai adventure on an adrenaline note.

Seriously! Our next stop was the mall, where individuals effortlessly fulfill their daily step count merely by window shopping - The Dubai Mall. Mesmerized by the fountain show and the dazzling Burj Khalifa, we proceeded to indulge in an exceptional dinner at the Michelin-starred restaurant, 11 Woodfire, while also catching sight of some fascinating cars parked around.

Next morning started early as we headed towards Hatta, a city with its own unique beauty. A two-hour drive brought us to the Hatta region, where we had the opportunity to witness the bees and their hives firsthand and indulge in some Kayaking with a view of scenic mountains.
