Holiday to Dubai for 12 adults and 9 children (eek!)
Problem
Posts: 41 Forumite
So we have this dream to go to Dubai this August and when I say "we" it seems to be half my extended family.
I don't really have a set quote as yet but I could do with advise best way of booking a holiday for 21 people!
- Is there any specialist travel agents for these type of booking as the hotel side of thing is limited to like 4 adults or 2+2 type bookings.
- Should I contact hotels directly in dubai for accommodation or should I stick with the UK.
Any other advise or suggestion or best way of booking this and getting a discount would be much appreciated! :T
I understand there be travel agents in this forum so any quotes would be good!
Incidentally we are flying some time in mid-August (currently 20-27 Aug with ticket prices of £341 pp with Qatar Airways), the hotel has to have breakfast included. The hotel has to be affordable at under £60 per night. We would prefer 4 people per room but understand this might be difficult.
I have been using kayak a lot but can't get the right type of accomodation.

Once you have fully checked out the prices and whats included, some of the suppliers are on Quidco, so you may get a bit cashback too if you clear your cookies and then research through the Quidco link0 -
