The UAE has already reopened tourism for vaccinated travellers from India. Let’s revise a little? Passengers can apply for a tourist visa with effect from today and receive quick approval. The new rule applies to all those fully vaccinated with the Covishield/AstraZeneca vaccine. Entry conditions from India remain largely the same as those for residents. Tourists will need to prove that they are fully vaccinated with a WHO-approved vaccine to receive a visa and enter. That means only passengers that have taken Covishield/Oxford-AstraZeneca vaccine are eligible for travelling. Those taking COVAXIN or Sputnik V remain barred.
Well, all of us are already well-acquainted with the tourist visas getting back on the table but did we share with you one of the most frolic attractions making its way back to Dubai? People have by now started flocking to the country to meet friends and family or vacation. And now, vacations will be getting all the more exciting. Because of the return of Ski Dubai.
Enjoy The Snow, Meet The Penguins & Learn To Ski
Located inside the Dubai Mall of the Emirates, Ski Dubai is the world’s third-largest indoor ski slope and the first to open in the Middle East. With a chair lift and at-bar, 6,000 tons of snow are at your disposal. Whether you just want to learn the basics or get good enough to fly off a 10 ramp, the qualified instructors will help you improve your skills and have you carving up the powder in no time! You can practice jumps, ramps and tricks in the dedicated freestyle zone. Furthermore, you get to meet the adorable Snow Penguins in an up close and personal one-of-a-kind intimate encounter that the whole family will love. It is said that Snow Penguins at Ski Dubai are dedicated to teaching youngsters and adults about the nature of this remarkable colony of Gentoo and King Penguins through engaging and interactive programmes. Don’t forget to watch the March of the Penguins several times a day. And, the same is exclusively free for the Snow Park guests.
Amusing Activities And WhooPee Explorations Are The Highlights Of Sky Dubai
At Ski Dubai’s Snow Park you can enjoy all the magic and fun of building your own snowman or just having fun in the snow.
