Visiting the Dubai Frame was a delightful experience for my wife and me. The atmosphere was incredibly friendly, and we were pleased to see many families with children enjoying their time there as well. The staff were wonderful, always ready to assist and enhance our visit. The views from the top were simply breathtaking, offering a unique perspective of the city. However, it was a bit disappointing that they didn’t provide cold water but that said, there was a good selection of other drinks, including hot beverages, and we thoroughly enjoyed the lovely café located downstairs. Overall, our visit to the Dubai Frame was a fantastic experience, and we would highly recommend it to anyone looking to enjoy a day out in Dubai.

As Japanese visitors, we were a bit worried if the website was safe, but everything worked perfectly. The tickets were much cheaper than expected, and the whole experience was smooth and reliable. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Dubai! ⸻Thank you very much! I bought this combo ticket (Dubai Frame + Global Village) for my first trip to Dubai with my girlfriend and it was really a great experience. Being Japanese, we were a little worried about the security of the site at first, but we were relieved to find that it worked smoothly and without any problems. We were also surprised that the tickets were cheaper than we had imagined. I highly recommend this service to anyone visiting Dubai!

From booking to entering the Dubai Frame, the entire experience was seamless. The staff were warm and welcoming, and everything was well-organised from start to finish. We arrived early at 9am, so there were no lines, allowing us to move through quickly yet still take our time to enjoy the visit. The views are absolutely fantastic — especially with the Dubai Frame’s location offering a clear look at the palaces and surrounding landmarks. Highly recommended!

    Highly Recommend! Must-Visit Place! The Dubai Frame is truly a masterpiece of architecture and a standout attraction that offers an unforgettable experience. It perfectly captures the essence of Dubai, bridging its rich past with its ambitious future. ✨ Experience Highlights: Views, Vibe, and Thrills The Views are Perfect: From the 150-meter-high Sky Deck, you get a unique and absolutely stunning dual perspective. Look North to gaze upon Old Dubai (Deira, Karama, the Creek) with its historical charm. Look South for the iconic New Dubai skyline, featuring landmarks like the Burj Khalifa and Emirates Towers. It literally frames the city's story! The Lighting and Vibe: The entire structure, particularly the golden-embossed exterior, is spectacular. Inside, the modern design and interactive elements create a vibrant atmosphere. Visiting around sunset is a perfect idea, offering a breathtaking transition as the city lights up! The Thrill of the Glass Floor: The narrow strip of smart glass flooring on the Sky Deck is an absolute highlight! When you step onto it, the frosted glass instantly turns transparent, revealing a 150-meter drop beneath your feet. It's a fun, thrilling moment that's perfect for a memorable picture. A Journey Through Time: The experience includes the Old Dubai Gallery at the base and the Future Dubai Gallery on the way out, making it more than just a view. It's a cohesive exhibit that charts the city's transformation from a fishing village to a global metropolis.

    The skip the line part was only on the ticket counter and not the actual queue passed the ticket gate. You still have to queue to the actual line for the elevator up the Dubai Frame. And to be honest, what they say about seeing the two sides of Dubai -- the ancient and the modern side, you'll have a greater understanding of it once you're on the top. The twalk on the transparent glass that will give you a view down is actually a thrilling experience.

    Dubai Frame — an incredible place! I was amazed by the view of old and new Dubai — it feels like looking into the past and the future at the same time. Especially magical at sunset, when the city glows in golden light. Be sure to go up — the glass floor adds a little adrenaline 😄 💛 Highly recommend it to everyone who wants to feel the spirit of Dubai and take stunning photos!

    I really enjoyed my visit to the Dubai Frame! Booking the skip-the-line tickets online was super easy and saved me a lot of time. Even when I arrived at the gate, I could use my e-ticket right away without waiting in the big queue. Plus, I got a nice small discount on the price. It made the whole experience smooth and fun. I highly recommend buying the skip-the-line tickets online
