Lofty Dubai

 16-17 September 2009

Firstly i wanna say that we're book Incentive tour from Golden Rama Tour & Travel. We choose that travel. because among all of the travel agent, Golden Rama was the best. Golden Rama gave us the Best Itinerary with the affordable price. so, we just took them!! :D
Golden Rama is a big travel company, just like Wita Tour, Anta, Tara, Smailing, Dwidaya,Bayu Buana, Panorama, Vaya and other big companies. :)
I so recommend Golden Rama if u want to travel to another country with the affordable price and great service! ;)
I would recommend Wita Tour if u want travel to Europe, Alaska, and Scandinavia with the luxurious service and facility! Wita is the best if u want the best thing for all, but dont ask the price. :P
There's money, there's satisfie. ;)
With WITA, u would be treated as seigneur. 4/5 star Hotel, the yummiest meals, and everything! ;)
If u want travel to China, u can choose Dwidaya.
If u want travel to Korea or Japan, u can choose KIA.
:)
These are the information that i know so far. :)
so, we're transit at Dubai airport before we landing at Rome.

We met at 20.30 at Soekarno International Airport.
the tour is consist of my family, our neigbors, and my parent's friends, also theres another people on the group such as the family (Tante Evie, Om Juno, Adit, and Laetishia a.k.a Tishia), honeymooners(Ko erick and Ci Yenny), and the hilarious family (Tante Wina, Om Susanto yg gokil, and the kids). ;)

Apparently,, not only us that would be going to europe and met up at the airport, there were dozens of groups there from Golden Rama, and also there were many groups from another company. its so crowded!!
Of course there were many ppl who travelling on that day because its like indonesian holiday or moslem event. "lebaran"

well, i and my brother so excited!!
i met Nia, Gitta, and Della there. I have friends to chat with!!!
It would be so much fun!!!! XD

It takes around 7 hours. wow!!
when we arrived there, we stunned with what we look around us!
i just said, " wow, its very cool! " Its like the MOST HUGE airport that i ever seen.
you can see shops everywhere!! any kind of shop. book store, souvenir, clothes, shoes, perfumes, or the famous brand like Gucci, Prada, etc. And also the cafes and restaurant. Burger King, etc.
U can find everything there!! Even they sell car there!! lols.
It just like a mall!!!! how amazing!!
so, we just look around and i meet a cute girl there, who really like a pretty doll. have light blonde, combination colours eyes, blushing cheek, and dimples. so cute!!
i take pict with her. :P
then i meet the arabian girls who wear material to cover all of their body, except their eyes.
but when i met them at toilet, and saw they open their hijab. i could see the superrr pretty girl there. :)

okay,,
i met many types of ppls there..and careful because it so hugee, dont be remiss about the time.
u must go along the gate 1 hour before boarding. it just for in case.
because the airport is so huge, so it a bit difficult to find the gate and have a long way to go there. ;)

after we went around and taking pictures, we just wait at the boarding..wait til the gate is open. :)
We're using Emirates Airlines, so we transit there. The airline was so great!!
the price is just half of the Singapore Airlines, and it serve yummy foods, screen on each seats, and we could choose hundreds of movies, many kinds of music, games, and also we could call each other! its cool! :D
i tried everything, but i was so interest with the movies. it shows the recent movies! great! :)))

i was not going outside Dubai, because we're not travelling there.
but i can give the information that i know about Dubai. ;)
surely, the weather was very hot there! around 40 degree celcius!! =="
then, there are some great destination in there :

1. The Dubai World Cup is the best attraction drawing spectators and riders from the international world. It is the world's richest horse race with steaks running into the millions. As an annual event it is held at Nad al Sheba racetrack and is graced by the ruler of Dubai's presence.

2. The Wild Wadi Water Park is a wonderful water park located near the Jumeirah Beach Hotel. It features numerous rides and is accessible for all with an entrance fee of less than US$30 per adult, US$25 per child.

3. "Dunes dinner" is one of the best activities. It begins by driving your four-wheeled drive land cruiser (part of the tour) across the dunes of the desert to the east of Dubai. Here you can ride camels or be seated in an already pitched Arabian tent where you are treated to a BBQ dinner under the stars in the open desert with entertainment by a mystical belly dancer. The tours can be arranged at various tour operators found in Dubai and average a cost of US$75 per person.
