Dubai - rearranging; best time to go?

[Princ3ss D]

Hi

We are due to go to Dubai on 5th April and it's looking highly likely we'll have to re-arrange our dates . We really need to stick to school holidays but this is looking impossible due the increased costs compared to what we have paid.

May half-term may be too soon to re-book and really want to avoid July and August due the heat.

So has anyone been in October, November or December? What's it like weather wise? Crowd wise? any events those months that may affect anything?

Thanks

We’ve been both Easter hols and Oct half term and weather and amount of people were about the same for both. Both great times to go and I’d happily go back either time. We actually got a great deal with Emirates holidays for Oct half term.

Been in October / November couple of times now in term time.

Weathers lovely (not too hot). Theme parks / Water parks in Dubai and Abu Dhabi were all very quiet with most attractions walk ons.

October was lovely. To be fair August was manageable- I would do it again.
There's not a month that I wouldn't consider going to Dubai now that I think about it
