Frequently Asked Questions
What are the visa requirements for Indian citizens traveling to Dubai?
Indian passport holders require a UAE Tourist Visa. VyuGo Holidays provides hassle-free 30-day single entry UAE Tourist Visas including mandatory COVID/Travel Insurance (approx. ₹6,500 per person). Processing takes 2-3 working days with just a passport copy and colored photo. Indian citizens with a valid US, UK, or Schengen visa/green card can also obtain a Visa on Arrival at DXB airport for 14 days.
What is the dress code for visiting the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi?
Modest attire is strictly enforced. Women must cover their heads with a scarf, wear loose-fitting clothing that covers arms down to wrists and legs down to ankles (no transparent, tight, or white clothing). Men must wear shirts with sleeves and full-length trousers (no shorts or sleeveless shirts). Traditional Abayas can also be rented or purchased at the visitors center.
Can the desert safari be modified for pregnant women or families with infants?
Yes! Dune bashing involves sudden drops and turns over sand dunes. Pregnant women, travelers with back/neck issues, and families with toddlers under 3 years can opt for a gentle scenic desert drive directly to the Bedouin campsite to enjoy camel rides, cultural shows, and the BBQ dinner without high-adrenaline dune bashing.
Is alcohol included in the desert safari or marina cruise?
Alcoholic beverages are not included in the standard package price but can be purchased directly from the licensed bar at the Bedouin desert camp and onboard the Marina cruise (except during dry religious holidays as per UAE law).
What is the Tourism Dirham fee?
The Tourism Dirham is a nominal municipal fee levied by the Dubai Government per room per night (approx. AED 10 for 3★, AED 15 for 4★, and AED 20 for 5★). In all our VyuGo Holiday packages, this is already included or clearly transparently itemized.
