Ski Down Ice and Sand With Confidence!
Filed Under: Blogging
If you’ve booked your tickets to the Dubai Shopping Festival, and cannot tear yourself away from coverage of the Winter Olympics, you might think you are visiting the wrong side of the world this time of year. Worry not, though: You might still be able to brag that you had a skiing accident in Dubai (all the more reason to get that tourist insurance for UAE)!
Ski Dubai is the UAE’s best-known indoor ski resort that is a testimony to the engineering feats of humankind. Located in the Mall of the Emirates, the resort provides man-made snow through the year.
Remember, however that if you do sustain an injury when skiing on the indoor slopes, your regular travel insurance may not allow the expense. You will need extra hazardous sports coverage for skiing. Most UAE tourist insurance plans offer additional coverage for adventurous sports, which includes skiing.
While you have the additional coverage, you might also want to try a desert safari. It is one of the best ways to experience first-hand what desert life is really like. What’s more, for a unique experience, you can try your hand (or feet) at sand skiing!
