Dubai has long captivated expats, with many choosing to make it their home for a variety of reasons. Whether it’s the city’s safety, tolerance, beautiful beaches, or cutting-edge technology, Dubai offers something for everyone. The allure of a high quality of life, tax-free earnings, world-class healthcare, and ample career opportunities are just some of the factors that make it so appealing. Add to that the city’s vibrant cultural scene, diverse landscape, and the year-round sunshine, and it’s no wonder Dubai is loved by so many.
But it’s not just the residents who see Dubai’s magic. According to Tripadvisor’s recent Traveller’s Choice Awards, the city ranks third on their list of the “Best of the Best Travel Destinations in the World.” While Dubai held the top spot last year, this time London has claimed the number one position, with Bali coming in second. Other top destinations include Sicily, Paris, Rome, Hanoi, Marrakesh, Crete, and Bangkok. Although Dubai is currently third, there’s hope it will reclaim the top spot in 2026, continuing to inspire both residents and tourists alike.
