Dubai holidays from Canada

Everything in one trip: shopping, theme parks, desert adventure and beach hotels. If you are travelling from Canada, we plan the whole trip, including the right flights, a hotel that suits your style and the transfers and tours that make the holiday easy.

Getting to Dubai from Canada

Direct flights to Dubai are often available from Toronto, and one-stop options via Europe or the Gulf from other cities. We compare options for your dates and look at total travel time, not just price.

Time difference

Dubai is about 8 to 9 hours ahead of Toronto, depending on daylight saving, so most travellers adjust quickly.

How long to stay

For travellers from Canada, a Dubai holiday is usually 8 to 12 nights, to make the long journey worthwhile. We recommend 4–6 nights on the ground.

Best time to go

November to March is the best time to visit Dubai. Days are usually pleasant (roughly 22 to 30 degrees), the beaches are comfortable and outdoor attractions such as the desert and the marina are at their best. December and January are the peak weeks and the most expensive.

Entry requirements

Entry rules depend on your passport. Visitors from many countries, including the USA, Canada and the UK, can usually enter visa-free or with a visa on arrival, while others need a visa arranged before travel. Always confirm the current rules for your passport before booking.

Top experiences to include

  • Burj Khalifa. Go up the world's tallest building at sunset for the best views and photos.
  • Desert safari. Dune driving, camel rides and a barbecue dinner under the stars, usually a late-afternoon departure.
  • Dubai Mall and Dubai Fountain. One of the largest malls in the world, with an aquarium and a free fountain show in the evening.
  • Old Dubai and the souks. Cross the creek by abra boat and browse the gold and spice souks.
  • Palm Jumeirah and Atlantis. Beaches, the Lost Chambers aquarium and Aquaventure waterpark.
