In Dubai, the rule is: if you don’t haggle, you pay too much! Especially in the Gold Souk and in traditional markets, you can easily knock 20–30 % off the starting price.
Start with offering half of the listed price, act a little shocked, and take a few steps away. The vendor will likely call you back. Practice your “that’s my final offer” look in front of the mirror, and don’t forget: a smile and a few Arabic words open many doors. Haggling is part of the cultural experience, so don’t be afraid to play along!
Our tip: give a friendly but firm “La shukran” (No thank you) and walk away.
Dubai is famous for being a shopper’s paradise. That said, there are a couple of places where you can find the best deals, unique souvenirs, and connect with the rich artistic heritage of the region. Here’s where to find your favorite souvenirs:
Spice Souk: A paradise for authentic spice blends and sets.
Gold Souk: Here you can find the best jewelry, often at more affordable prices than back home. Don’t forget to haggle for the best prices.
Souk Madinat: A more modern souk with traditional flair offering tea glasses, lanterns and camel figurines in a lovely atmosphere. Great for first-time buyers!
Dubai Mall: For high-end gold-leaf chocolate, premium dates and designer products — this world’s largest mall has it all.
Karama Market: The “insider tip” for bargain hunters. Here you’ll find affordable souvenirs of all kinds, ideal if you want to shop without spending too much.
When flying home to the States after shopping in Dubai, it’s crucial to know what you must declare at US customs to avoid delays or penalties.
As a traveler, you can bring back up to $800 USD worth of goods duty-free into the US. If you go past this amount, you must declare the full value. You’ll need to declare any expensive items such as gold jewelry, luxury watches, designer bags, or electronics purchased in Dubai.
Top tip: Keep receipts in your carry-on bag to ensure the process is smooth and stress-free if the US Customs and Border Protection officers ask any questions.
When thinking about what to buy in Dubai, one non-negotiable aspect is staying connected during your shopping spree. With Holafly’s eSIM for Dubai, you can get fast, reliable, and unlimited data from the moment you land, as opposed to opting for a local Dubai SIM card.
Choose an eSIM plan based on your trip’s dates, download the Holafly app, and set up your eSIM profile. The entire process takes between five and ten minutes, and once it’s done, you’ll have instant access to local networks in Dubai. No paperwork, roaming fees, or stress, and all you need is an eSIM-compatible phone.
This day is "your" day to do what ever you like. We have made arrangements with the local witness that has a transportation business to take you in smaller groups where you would like to go in the area. Their rate of transportation will vary depending where it is you would like to go. Their transportation fees are not included in our package.
To keep things organized, we need to know ahead of time how many would like to group up and have a repeat visit to a location some where. They may need to schedule multiple smaller personal vehicles or vans to take individuals around.
We will advise in the future what the deadline will be for making personal transportation arrangements.
