UAE Travel FAQs | Booking, Weather & Local Customs

Planning a trip to Dubai or Abu Dhabi?

Our FAQ page is designed to provide clear, transparent answers to your most important travel questions. Whether you are curious about our 2026 tour schedules, payment security, or regional travel restrictions, we have you covered.

Q: When is the best time to visit Dubai and Abu Dhabi?

The peak travel season in the UAE is from November to March. During these months, the weather is mild and pleasant, with daytime temperatures between 25°C and 35°C, making it the perfect time for:

  • Outdoor Adventures: Desert safaris, dhow cruises, and beach trips.
  • Sightseeing: Exploring the Grand Mosque or Burj Khalifa comfortably.

Summer Travel (June – September): Temperatures often exceed 45°C with high humidity. While outdoor activities are limited, this is a great time to enjoy the UAE’s world-class air-conditioned malls, indoor theme parks, and luxury spas.

Cultural Note (Ramadan): If your visit falls during the holy month of Ramadan, please be aware that some restaurants and attractions may have adjusted hours. At VooTours, we ensure our guests are fully informed so they can enjoy the local culture with respect and ease

Payment

Are there any extra fees that I will have to pay on top of the listed price?

No, we do not charge any extra fees or fuel surcharges. The listed price is the price you pay. Including tax.

Should I print a receipt to show the tour guide?

We understand that you may not have a printer handy when you’re traveling so it is not necessary to have a printed copy. However, we require that you show ID matching your reservation and also the Order # that is immediately emailed to you after you make your reservation.

How much does it cost to do a private tour?

Please contact us to get the latest information on your desired trip.

Preparation

What should I wear?

Wear whatever is comfortable. It is recommended to have a sturdy pair of broken-in trail shoes, boots, or sneakers. It is preferable to dress in layers and wear clothing that will wick away perspiration and keep you dry and comfortable

What do I need to bring?

Not much, remember our trips are all inclusive. We do suggest you bring appropriate clothing to fit the season and a day pack to carry extra snacks and water.

Reservation

What is your refund and cancellation policy?

You must call 72 hours ahead of your scheduled tour for a full refund. Within 72 hours you will assess a $35 termination fee. There are no refunds for cancellations within 24 hours of your tour, or if you decide not to show up.

Do I have to make a reservation or can I just show up?

Yes. Reservations are required for guaranteed spots on all tours. Reservations help us determine the number of guides we need to ensure that our groups remain manageable and enjoyable, and they allow us to notify you of changes to the tour due to weather or anything that could disturb the tours.

Weather

Are we going hiking even though it’s raining and windy?

We do hike in the rain, snow, wind and any other weather conditions that nature decides to throw at us. After all, we’re going on adventures! If the weather is unsafe for any reason, the trip will be changed or postponed. You will be notified the week of your trip if there are changes due to weather.
