11. The zip line above the marina in Dubai
XLine provides an exhilarating way to observe Dubai from above while experiencing a surge of adrenaline. For those seeking extreme thrills, XLine offers one of the fastest and steepest ziplines in the world, right over the Dubai Marina. At 558 feet above the earth, the 0.62-mile zipline enables you to soar to speeds of up to 50 miles per hour. The experience is not for the timid, as a single ride costs $177 and a double ticket costs $354, but then again, Dubai has never been known for its subtlety.
Admire breathtaking views of the immaculate waters below, elegant yachts, and charming beaches. Additionally, there’s an XLine line that passes through Downtown Dubai if you’re more interested in the cityscape. You can see the stunning neighborhoods and modern skyscrapers that make up this remarkable metropolis.
