Sharing HONEST reviews/ tips so you don't have to waste your time or money on useless crap! 🤑♥️ - Навчання та стиль
I am from Abu Dhabi it's 1 hr away from Dubai not that far but I wanna go to the United States sooo bad cause first of all I'm not that rich and I'm sick of rich mean people here, I get bullied a lot. If they're rich doesn't mean they have to be mean to me in school or wherever. The first thing on my bucket list is to live in America when I grow up, I'm now 15 just a teenage girl ya know
I know you will make it to the US.. America has it's mean parts too but overall I wouldnt want to live anywhere else.. Good luck to you 💕
I am sorry Hun stay strong.
If only you knew what USA is and what happens there. Movies have you confused. I used to dream the same but now my eyes are now opened and would never live in USA.
better stay there 😂in america is more racism they destroy the Black people
@@ShareseNicole My wife and I went there from Germany, immigration strict, I'm surprised they didn't search me. Our experience was great, went to all the places you named, but you right, they are too strict. We only went 4 days, I was ready to leave too, missed my weed. The shopping I did enjoy, and I hear, see, and believe they into slavery over there. While you are travelling if ever in Europe Chez Republic Prague there is a big cathedrals there and in a large but vacant room there is a picture of Yahweh (Jesus) on a cross, one might say he resembles Nipsey Hussle. I have that pic but can't upload to comment. And the cathedrals is heavily armed guarded.
I am a black african woman that visited Dubai less than a month ago and I never experienced any of this. In all honesty, I was pleasantly surprised because I expected to be with some form of racism or hostility but experienced neither. I highly recommend visiting Dubai, it was a very pleasant experience. I also recommend going in the cooler months because Dubai is in a desert so high temperatures are to be expected.
Seems like it is just Black Americans having a hard time in DUBAI. I know a few black people who have visited and have had no probems
Yeah black Americans mostly get the most and I don’t understand why .I am African from USA but when people hear my accent their attitude change from negative to positive and some even tell me you are not black you are African as if being black American is a curse smdh
U said u are a Black African but Black/African is the race and I'm gon take it as if u meant yo nationality or ethnicity is in a African country but u saying u didn't experience racism is a Lie it's just that the white man brainwashed those Blacks who stayed in Africa a whole different way than they brainwashed the ones they took from Africa a lot of y'all in Africa wouldn't know what racism is if it was right in yo face racism is global it's not just confined to one place but u gon say it never happened to u cuz u got what white people call stockholm syndrome or what we would call still under the willie lynch brainwashing technique
@@sheilahales4313 u lying to yourself as well ain't nowhere on this planet that Blacks gon go to and not have problems
Same here I feel like she’s making up the story I’ve been in Dubai twice
I had a very attractive friend who went there with her dad who is a doctor, and her mom was a nurse for vacation. She told me that the experience was OK but definitely overrated. One thing that she pointed out was that a group of men approached her and thought she was a prostitute which is crazy! I also have a colleague who went to teach there for a few years and she said that the racism is off the charts and the male chauvinism and sexism also not good for a woman.
that's crazy and scary but i'm not surprised.
Good, what did you expect, hopefully this will show you broads how good you got it in America, no feminism crap over there.
The world is so messed up, it makes me so sad to the point I want to cry 😭
Coward
I’ve always wanted to go to Dubai but I stopped feeling that way when I saw how they treated migrant African women. Work them nonstop, don’t pay them. Abuse them. I don’t wanna spend my money there
You're not even African lol
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿
Good for you honey. Do ya thing. Evil kind people very racist.
Respect!
@mrsonpoint I Agree !! I won't !! Go to Dubai Either And I Also don't Like that fact that they mistreats the men that come from different countries to do construction work there at Dubai they mistreat them A And they don't pay them a Lot .being a wealthy country.that is not !! Fair!! And they have them Low income construction working set up Living in bad not Healthy Living situations.
It really is a good idea to research the culture and laws of a country BEFORE you plan a visit. See how they treat women, especially black women. Surprised the tour company did not let you know the tea.
👁
When you are traveling as a black person the first thing you should do is research how racist the country you are going to is. As a rule of thumb I only travel to majority black countries.
I agree!! And I see why 💪🏽
You should try coming to Europe. You are more than welcome as a black person here 👍😎
I agree as a muslim too.
I live in the U.K and travelled to Sicily to visit relatives.
Omg Italians are so racist.
They screamed at me whilst checking my luggage, and the whole entire trip I never saw any other Ethnicity there, and if there was they would walk fast and not look anyone in the eye!
I was heartbroken on the way home literally.
It put me off travelling in Europe and made me research next time muslim friendly counties I guess. 😢
@@tea-chip-cookies i’m so sorry to hear that. I guess northern european countries are more open towards muslims? I eas actually planning a trip to Sicily, but even though i’m not muslim myself that put me off a bit. I want to travel to places that treat everybody with respect.
Dubai is seriously racist you weren't imagining it. Btw fair warning if they really don't like the look of you, they can insist on a drug test and if you test positive for anything it's a mandatory 4 year sentence.
I don't know why anyone would consider going there it's a truly awful place.
Wow! That's crazy! Yeah, I won't be back
@@ShareseNicole I don’t think they want you back too 🖕🏽
@@User89o 😂 OK
@charlie boy it’s so rude to say awful place. If your family does not know how to raise you, I will raise you.
@@User89o Lol wow! So it's rude to say a place is awful, but not rude to use a 🖕🏽 emoji at strangers and make derogatory comments about the family of people you don't know? That takes delusional arrogance to the next level really...
I'm a man in my 40s and have no desire to be 'raised' by an offensive little child - don't think to condescend to me you pompous spoilt brat.
If you black woman my advice is don't go to Dubai, my experience at the Airport even though I was in transit is unbelievable.😷😭
I would have covered my body from head to toes with a light fabric because daaamn! The sun is strong.
Their culture of covering up (besides their religion) is also to protect themselves from the sun, which also men do.
I did my research about the do’s and don’ts for Dubai. I spent 26 years in the military and know there are different rules for different countries. I’m going in December, I’m excited.
Right onnn port-a-p0tty🤣🤣🤣
I’m so sorry about your experience. I just came back from Dubai… custom didn’t ask question or did all that. It was smooth but during the trip… I probably was mad 75 percent mad because some of this people are greedy when it comes to money and they have lie to me. I felt like people over hype Dubai. I spend way to much money in Dubai I made a lot of mistakes but it’s all good. I was just happy to back in Houston Texas. I travel a lot myself but this experience did not change me.I would rather go back home (Congo Central Africa ) because it’s my home and I would be more comfortable than Dubai. Even though Dubai was very safe for me I didn’t have any issues. But Dubai is not like place I would go back anytime soon not even 2 years from now. Thank you for this video I learn a lot today.
THANK U SO MUCH 4 THE HEADS UP! IM GOING THIS MONTH!
Thank you for the honest review.. I’ve never had the desire to go to Dubai… something about it seems odd.. but my friend is there right now and she text and said.. never again!! Said the ppl there were so rude to them (they are young black women) but she would give me details when she gets back. I do understand different places and cultures have different standards/laws about dress codes and drugs/sex etc.. so those things also influence where I go, but I think discrimination is the biggest thing.. I would feel completely uncomfortable and on guard and would miss any type of “beauty’s within a place because I can’t see past some stuff..
Oh wow 😂 yep that's how I felt... I wouldn't discourage anyone because they could have a different experience but I just won't be returning... 😅
Me too it’s like a weird feeling about that place! I totally agree abt not visiting places that don’t align with ur core. The discrimination is too much! My ancestors went through enough discrimination to last 1000 generations I’ll avoid it every chance I get.
My wife and was there for vacation a month ago with a group through a travel agency over all everyone had a good time.we’re definitely going back.
That’s good… “overall” I had a great time with my girls as well.. just never returning 😂
@@ShareseNicole I feel you 😂
@@ShareseNicole I felt they a lot of the men were aggressive too when it came to shopping Our currency is way more.
@@williamcooper3902 yes! I wish we had men with us.. I was very uncomfortable.. and that doesn’t happen for me (growing up in the inner city you see it and hear it all) but even I was worried
I’ve been Dubai several times, and never had such experiences, in fact they’ve been really welcoming, I guess it all boils down to the individual’s experience.
Definitely; my friend who arrival in the middle of the day had a completely different airport experience than us who arrived close to midnight
@@ShareseNicole when next u come to Dubai, inbox me to take care of you ok, I live in Dubai
@@onyebuchianyanwu4259 , you’re weird AF!
No offense but, you’re probably not “wake” enough! That country don’t want black folxs there!
U lying to yourself as well ain't nowhere on this planet that Blacks go to that don't experience things of that nature and u say u been there several times but to do what stacey dash
Just got back last night from Dubai, 2 week stay. Respect the culture, research the do's /don't and you will be fine.
My sister went to Dubai with her dreadlock boyfriend, she had no problems getting through customs. When in Rome comes to mind. They are strict when it comes to showing certain parts of your body.
We just got back and had no problem. But i also heard things have changed over the years.
Girrl! Thank you so so very much for this information. I truly had my heart set on going here for my birthday. But no THANKS. Everything negative thing that you said was everything that i despise the most about people, places, airport check-in, etc.
When you travel to Dubai do you usually just get a hotel? Is it like resort style or regular hotels? Or do you just AIRBNB it?
I agree 100, experienced the same thing 4 years ago. Will never go back!
!! That was our DREAM!!!... Thanks for the information 💗
The Irish Twinz- Vlog #ChildishBehavior you’re welcome.. we def had a blast 🔥😫
@@ShareseNicole you niggas gonna complain and blk females always thinking somebody after yall
Keeping it real! Finally found you and an HONEST review of Dubai… every other person that does videos on traveling to Dubai constant say the same things: “So so amazing”, “Dubai is super cool”, “my life has changed since going to Dubai” etc… mind you they all sound like they have just joined some kind of strange cult. As a fellow American 🇺🇸 sorry to hear you had trouble entering UAE / Customs, but it sounds like they were definitely fishing for contraband … but no one ever reports on this honestly… so thank you for giving a brutally honest review of your experiences… it’s much appreciated !!
Thanks, I know a ton of folks didn’t like my view on Dubai but it's my experience.. and overall it wasn't an awful experience but to be honest I’ve had more fun in Vegas 😁😂
@@ShareseNicole Haha… Right On! I LOVE traveling, and other cultures and experiences and I’m ok with things being drastically different from America to a certain extent… but once there is blatant / obvious harassment / aggression / racism going on… I’m out of there heading back to ‘Merica 🇺🇸 lol … thank you again… your review was very fair to be honest :)
It’s sad that you said people that say nice things about Dubai have some sort of cult deceptions, everyone has different experiences in Dubai but saying it’s like a cult is mad disrespectful to the culture and the country. The country is Islamic so everyone there is mostly covered unlike the United States everyone here dresses more openly and less clothing more or the skin showing we should all respect different cultures and religions.
@@Jeonxenon I was referring to the people that made a series of videos at that time… what I said had absolutely nothing to do with the people or culture of Dubai. Please do not insert words into what I said to make it mean something else please.
@@BangBangBeefyMacNCheesy oh no that’s not what I interpreted you clearly stated that it sounds like a cult so ?
Great heads up!👍🏿👍🏿
OMG i am soooooo sorry for all humans that has to go through discrimination. Its not fair...🥺😞😒
Great information, I'm getting ready to travel to Egypt. I believe culture is the same coming down to being covered up. Glad to hear you made an uneasy situation concerning entering their country to having a awesome experience after all. Thank God for good ole USA
Hey how was ur Egypt trip? I’ve been contemplating going myself but my friend told me his mom and sister got hustled by the police at the airport. Said they followed the taxi to the hotel and said they provided an escort and they needed a tip. Then another friend told me that at the pyramids ppl are just shoving stuff in your face telling you to buy.
@@mrsonpoint From one Dee to another, I went with a group. We had security and a tour guide. When we were traveling from Cairo to Aswan and Luxor our bags were constantly being checked. Yes they are desperate and will be very persistent in making you buy something. The best thing to do is ignore, once you entertain them it will get worse. The overall I had a very nice time, especially with the group. About to travel again next year to Morocco with the Travel Divas. Hop aboard you will have a awesome time.
@@mrsonpoint I've only heard terrible stories about Egypt there are some big youtubers and smaller channels who have shared their experiences all equally as bad. I haven't gone there muyself all I can say is be careful and research well. Don't go by yourself.
Your hair! Also Dubai looks so beautiful, I need to go there now!
Nelsa Simone it was def I nice girls trip ♥️💪🏽
If you travel to a different culture-- expect different rules & customs. That includes racism. We gotta deal with that EVERYWHERE-- so that's not an exclusively Dubai issue. The entire point of traveling is to experience a different place, different people, different culture. DIFFERENT. If you don't like things that are different from what you are familiar with-- you should probably stay home. Like how you gonna go to Dubai....DUBAI... and complain about the heat? You know it's in a desert right? Come on fam-- you gotta do better.
Ok Mr.Racoon🤣🤣🤣
No body wakes up in the morning and say "Hey let me go to Dubai to experience racism.. That not what different means
@@Leylaswisdom#fokislam🤣🤣😂that's just how they are
Bruh you are so pressed about her telling her experience it's crazy lol she not even complaining, just telling us how it was ? Why click the video then lol
@@MonkeyyMischief#camelToe🤣🤣😅😂u just trying to eat bacon thats allqhhqhahahahahahahaahah
October-March the weather is in the 80’s 90’s it their “winter”
I loved my Dubai experience. I wanna go back
MiixxedBeauty I def has a good time overall.. especially with my girls 💪🏽
Dubai is a humanitarian crisis. The layout just shows how rich people are fucking stupid.
@@kevinlinsley9594 as a Emirate girl I would say we are not all rich I mean we have money v but not soooo rich as you guys think
@@mozaalneyadi2437 I never said you guys are rich. Im just pointing out how the city is like the extreme example of why rich people are fucking psychotic.
Dubai is a shit show of humanitarian issues and environmental waste
I lived in Abu Dhabi for 3yrs, the Grand Mosque is some straight outta Disney shit
Say this in front of our face and see
Dubai looks sooo pretty! I've always wanted to go! also you are beautiful girl!
Jade Olivia it’s def a beautiful place 💕
She is not beautiful atop it
Next time do it dec-march in winter time , I was there a couple months ago in march weather was on the 70"s. I would go back for sure so many things to see.....
I went to Dubai two years ago & they stopped my son at the airport. It wasn’t a bad experience we had an amazing even though things were closing due to the pandemic. I always dress the same way I’m from Chicago so it was fine. Those men are very aggressive but I had the same experience in Ghana & Egypt
Single mothers shouldn't travel alone
You lost me at the no “fun toys”. I’m good 😂
🥴😂 that “fun toy” took me out 😂
I'm so sorry you went through this. I'm planning to go for my 40th (solo). It's good to at least hear this upfront so i'm prepared just incase. Not that they have anything to find but that is truly annoying and messes up the arrival vibes.
Thanks for the tip on destination dubai. Will check them out.
What time of year did you go? What month? Since you said it was so hot lol
Thank you.. I still had a great time with my friends.. And their actual were a few solo ppl that booked through Destination Dubai.. September 😂 🔥 I believe we got there on the 18th.. The locals said it's perfect weather December and January...awful in September, I can’t even imagine the weather in June
@@ShareseNicole ok cool. Yeah I’m planning to go in early March, hopefully that’s in between somehow weather wize lol
And I’m so excited. It’s great your friends cooperate. I have to too many indecisive folks who’s money is funny so I usually go solo and have the BEST time.
@@stacyb6461 I know 😂 we normally can get it together when we go on a trip.. But now everyone is starting families 😫 ❤️ I doubt we have a girls trip for a while
hi
I went there for my 40th bday solo trip and I had a great time I didn’t experience anything that was said in the video. That country isn’t like USA and it is a conservative place. I went in the middle of October and I had a good time.
hey boo it is very hot in Dubai as an Arab myself I hate the weather there but I still enjoy Dubai a lot I don't let the weather there stop me from having fun yk what I mean? Like it doesn't bother me that much and I wear short dresses and short clothing all the time I never get stopped or asked to cover up so Idk what's that about and I'm so sorry you got stopped by at the airport because of ur race that shouldn't have ever happened to you thank you for sharing this vid
thank youuu... overall i had a really great time with my girls.. heat n all
I appreciated hearing about your experience and please let’s go back cuz i don’t have too many options i wanna travel with lol.. we can go to Ferrari world first
Has black lives matter profile picture and yet travels to possibly the most racist country in the world. They literally have modern day slavery!!!
Reconsider your decisions...
Come on girl, you mean to tell me that you didn't know that Dubai was a Muslim country and they have restrictions that if you break the rules you can be put in jail or that you can be killed for. Women are second-class citizens and you better not be seen as gay, it is no place to get in trouble at. The photos you are showing are just beautiful, that is as close as I'd like to be with Dubai. But be respectful of their laws.
My friend told me before we booked the trip but I guess it was one of those things that I had to experience but I’m good now 😂 believe me, it’s not my lane…
So sorry for your experience. I love 💘 you and wish you the best.
Appreciate you 💕; in all.. we still enjoyed each other’s company… I just need to do more research before traveling abroad 😅
Thank you for the add… is the bottled water expensive
Hi. You mentioned that it was extremely hot. Which month did you travel to Dubai? I’m going next month so I’m curious about the weather.
End of September
yelp....I stopped and pulled over in Jordan, Lebanon, same bullshit. Stereotyping like a mug. I will check out destination dubai and ferrari world. This will be a graduation gift to myself. Great video.
Please I want to know if ankle chain is allowed there
If you ever decided to come back, try to come around the time Of
October to May it is much cooler during these months and enjoyable. A lot of people stay in during the day and come out at night because its slightly cooler.
I'm going in June, so I'm doing some research on it. Thank you for sharing your experience 😊 🥰
dont go dubai. it is not the place to spend your money. even if you want to spend money. Don't go to dubai. Dubai is not the right place
@@ROHIT45IPL Can you please elaborate on why it's not. All accommodations are made. So please explain. 🙏
@@ChantalesprettylittleDIYS the place is like hot tub during the time you’re planing to visit. They are going to charge you for anything that doesn’t fit as per their rules and regulations. DUBAI is a bullshit place. I was there for 11 years. I wasted my time and energy there. One day I had small fight and they said we will deport you. They even wanted me to send to jail for one slap on another guy who took my $2000. The corruption and racism is on highest level. People think DUBAI is like Europe or USA. But DUBAI is not even 1% of it. There is no human rights. There are many things that they politicize in public but very dark inside DUBAI in reality. DUBAI is not the place to go n I just wrote because you asked for research. Go somewhere else. DUBAI can Issue fine for small things. You wouldn’t imagine if you by mistake throw tissue on garbage bin and it fall outside. Fine is 1000 $ and you have pay it no matter what. Or else they will put travel ban on you and can put even in jail if you don’t pay. Such a stupid city.
@@ROHIT45IPL Thank you for sharing your thoughts 🙏
@@ChantalesprettylittleDIYS you’re always Most welcome
I went to Dubai in 2015 and loved it. Did you go to Ski while you were there? I am going back with my group but it will be Dubai and Bali in November 2024. You’re welcome to join us
You must have gone in the summertime. I’ve been to Dubai multiple times and had great time no issues and I’m black. Go during the winter months the high is 80 and low is in the 60’s
When went the last week in September so it was technically falling but I can see how it still felt like summer over there
September is technically still summer here I live here. It’s a great place and I’m from Ireland
omg you sound like KEKE PALMER! came across your video looking for places to travel. Always wanted to go to Africa and Dubai the mother lands but of course we are woman of color I have to watch everyone experiences and do a double take.
Yes, it was definitely the first time that given been somewhere and didnt feel welcomed but we still had a good time
@Lilman Yellow I honestly have only had good experiences traveling.. but this was my first Muslim country..
They literally have the same voice.
You are the same skin color as any African
She does!!!!
Wow, very eye opening. I have no urge to go somewhere to be discriminated against for being female. Can't even imagine how awful it is for someone who is also being racially discriminated against as well.
Brandyn's Transformation yes; it was very awkward.. it’s sad that ppl think everyone is the same based on there skin color🤦🏽♀️.. but thanks for watching.. ♥️I’m checking out your channel
Unfortunately, the story of our lives...
I vacation in predominantly Black countries ONLY
Some Arabs see black people as low class and slaves. These Arabs still think they're in the Stone Age.
I feel the same about Disney movies like Star Wars and Marvel.
First I must say thank you for sharing your experience & sorry that your experience started out being so negative. May be when you make that trip to go to Ferari World it will be a better experience. I have been to Dubai & Abu Dhabi 3 times & I have never had that experience. We were a small group of 20 with Majestic1 Vacations International. No airport or immigration issues. Our Tour Guide met us outside of the airport terminal where our bus was. On our drive from the airport to the hotel she updated us on cultural norms & what to expect, when & where you need to cover up. It was in the month of October & our tours were also pre planned. Even venturing out to places the mall, Ferrari World, Ski Dubai, Burj Khalifa, Burj Al Arab Hotel & other locations, we had no issues. The only time we were required to cover up was entering any place of worship. We did the tour of the Sheikh Zayed Grand Mosque in Abu Dhabi where covering up was mandatory. Outside of that , we wore regular clothing, Tee Shirts, Tank Tops, jeans, leggings dresses etc. with no issues. The one thing that stood out for me is the men will almost knock you over to get in that elevator ahead of a woman. So ladies watch out for that . I can't say that they are ill mannered because that's their culture & its what they are used to. I just smiled, kept on moving & enjoyed my trip. Would I return to Dubai ? Absolutely !
Thank you for this. I may put Dubai on the backburner - I'm a little tited of the escalated drama at Customs when I travel, including Canada (although, everytime I had issues, it was a white man set me on my way and cut the drama short).
I def understand ✊🏽❤️
We canadian are fine.
I've been there several times. Never remotely experienced or witnessed anything like she's explaining.
The dress code is NOT strict in Dubai. I was really surprised after watching people like her. Most people don't plan to be naked on vacation.
Dubai is definitely on your bucket list! Her review seems to be an isolated experience - it's not very typical at all here.
@@france1437 you are white so you don't have any problem. They have problem with blacks and 3rd country nationals.
Did you research the season, weather, customs of the country, religion and whats allowed, best time to travel etc? Seems like you traveled the wrong time of the year. Perhaps, try visiting when the heat is not so extreme.
What area in Dubai did u goooo
I’ve traveled a lot and Dubai was never on my list. Just given the fact the way the Arabic world treats Africans that go to Saudi Arabia for work. It’s a hell nah for me!
And in the airport you will have to be checked because you might have some bombs like last year they found out that 3 iranian woman had bombs like ?????
This is the reason why I stay in the United States, don't need the headache
I love your intro ❤️
Aquemini awww thank you♥️ It needed to be revamped 😅 I’m glad ppl like it
The person I am and how I feel about rights Going to Dubai being searched for weed and I dont do drugs would piss me off.
exactly SMH but ppl try to justify it
@@ShareseNicole no justification
same thing happened to me in different usa airports multiple times
@@naijaaprincess Really never happened to me once in US and I fly all the time.
MashaAllah. Thank you, Sis.😉
Thanks for sharing 💯🙏🏽… So sorry you had a negative experience. I want to visit Dubai, and now I’ll know what can possibly happen, but I’m praying my experience will be a positive one. Everyone who has been there also says at certain places you have to respect their culture by covering your shoulders and hair, also no shorts or shirt dresses, but at most of the places they went and at their resort they could dress how they wanted. A lot of countries like to assume black people have or smoke more weed or cbd than other ethnicities, but that’s not true😂🤦🏽♀️…Thanks For Sharing 💯❤️.. Also I wanted to say although we consider it excruciatingly hot🥵… it’s normal to them, so they can’t understand why some people don’t want to cover up. I guess it’s just something that we have to consider before going. Maybe choose a cooler time of year to travel there.
Dubai looks pretty. Those laws scare me though. I don't want to end up in jail If I make a simple mistake. Even just saying the wrong thing could get you arrested. God forbid a man hurts me while there. Woman have been arrested for the crime of being raped. If things change in the country is the only way I would visit.
Oh wow.. I’m upset with myself for not doing more research because when we went to “old Dubia” I think that’s what they called it, I was sooooooo uncomfortable shopping because the men were so aggressive… boarded line scared
@@ShareseNicole it's not uncommon in Dubai for their relentless discrimination towards women through the laws setup. Dubai believe it or not is a mecca for foreign women (potential n IG models). These women are usually paid to come to Dubai to be degraded on by Saudi menand unfortunately many of these women are willing because money talks. This also explains how the Saudi also view western women as general trash. The downside is that many of these women don't think it through. You can't just carry $40k let alone $10k out of the country without revealing the source of income. The cycle is...they get lured, go through a relentless degrading week, get paid, gets stop at custom. Either leaves with no money in hand or arrested. The money gets recycle back and the women leave with nothing. Any women caught sleeping with another individual outside of marriage is punishable by large fine and jail time. In the case where a woman agrees to certain foreplay but ends up getting gang r*pe by the men. She's basically on her own! This applies to western women and other foreign women. As far as your negative experience at the airport with the whole interrogation ordeal. I'm sorry that happened to you ladies. Black people especially black women regardless if you are African or not are seen as the bottom of society by Saudi standards. Many of the helpers (slaves...they do exist) that gets hired to work for a Saudi family is usually imported from Africa. Often times, these women are not being paid, held hostage and work for decades. Their system design that such activities can occur but little can be done because any sense of truth or justice only means retaliation and yet again jail time. I've been to Dubai twice and as long as you steer clear away from the things that takes place and turn a blind eye...you can have plenty of fun. As for women...most women are being used especially if they are there for other than actual tourist travel. I'm Thai but live in California. One of my friends that studied here is from Dubai and his family has two helper. Where they from, I didn't ask but they looked to be African descend. Slavery was abolish in the 60's-70's from outside pressure. However this hasn't stop that practice from continuing.
@@tsingbabu8841 omg! That’s absolutely awful.. but thank you for sharing and providing that insight..
i always wanted to go to dubai 😫
brit calixte you should still go.. and the group I went with was very professional and the activities they planned were on so much fun.. I need to add their website to my description..
Any particular reason?
Damn I can't believe that woman went through your bag like that 😱
Ayesha yea it was pretty uncomfortable 🤷🏽♀️
I can believe it... It's Dubai people!!
I still feel bad this happened though, makes you thankful for where we do live instead... 😊
Our US Customs here in America sometimes does the same thing. If you’re from certain countries we interrogate the hell out of them and put you in closed rooms.
That’s why they have customs but stupid people will always try to bring their bad habits elsewhere and wonder why they get arrested.
Me and my boyfriend want to go but he said if we want to go out to town I have to wear a white robe that covers me up?? And we also can't hold hands in public???
People let us please go where We and our black dollars are Respected and Valued. Y'all ain't fed up of burning to learn?
I want to go to Dubai one day and this video was really helpful😁
Crystal I had a ton of fun with Destination Dubai.. they go every year and they have a payment plan option
Thank you so much Sharese, good information you provided and I will consider Destination Dubai😊
We do it to them when they come to our airport … just on honesty
Black Americans don’t have an airport.. They didn’t check us because we were American they checked us because we were black..
@@ShareseNicole im not black if you assumed that by my name but i hear ya …
@@missthang9192 I didn’t think you were black but I did assume you were from America when you said our airport.. I should have asked..
Omg they did me the same way to in Canada
Smh .. I wouldn’t expect that in North America , nothing surprises me anymore
I am from dubai
When it's super hot... it's cooler for you to be covered...other wise your skin and your insides have no shading and you're just roasting
Oh yeah for the mosque 🕌 you have to cover your body cuz if your going to pray you can't show your hair or anything and to respect the mosque and being muslim
There'.is a story on UA-cam about a black billionaire who died in Dubai police custody.
Thanks for sharing. Always good to hear other perspectives. I've been taking groups of for almost 20 years and we've never experienced this--and we are black women. I always wear what I want (with respect to the religious places and things like that). I hate that you had that experience because it's such an amazing place. Never even had the aggression from the men...they are always the coolest with us. Most of the girls in my group have gone with me several times and can't wait to go back. But I'm glad that your trip was fun otherwise. This is a Muslim country, so as long as you respect the rules of their country, you will have a good time.
Can i go with my cousin? she's a tomboy basketballer. Thanks in advance
When did you go?
Sept 2019
Hi Sherese,
I had the opportunity to visit Dubai, yes, it was a culture shock and unbearable heat was something I never experienced before. I went to Dubai in August and most of the tourist destinations were closed because of the heat. Next time, visit Dubai between the month of Nov-Apr. Now, you know this is a Muslim country and the rules are different. Yes, you are expected to be modest. You were not required to cover up, like wearing a head cover in the malls, but if you go to a mosque or a religious building then you must cover your head. Overall, the locals were pleasant and eager to assist you. I hated the hackling, everyone wanted you to buy something from them. This is a great destination but one must adhere to the laws or you will get in serious trouble. The Arab women were not so friendly, but I enjoyed interacting with the ex-pats from different nations. I will go back and enjoy the sightseeing and food of the local culture.
Notwithstanding the unpleasant, differential treatment you were subjected to upon arrival, please keep in mind that being situated in a region with high tensions, inveterate hostilities, and safety concerns, they are doing their best to keep the masses safe. I do understand your frustration with the treatment at the airport, but in all fairness you cannot expect them to revamp their entire social and legal systems just to please the foreigners who may have broader liberties at their homelands. We Americans are too spoiled in our own country and therefore we take exception to the rules and the rites of other nations. Like many other have suggested here, I think you should research your destination and their DOs and DON’Ts before venturing a trip there.
Hey Girl, Thanks.For The Super Honest Review. Dubai Is Prob One Of The Only Countries In The Middle East That I've Been Really Dying To Go To. Altho Now, I'm Just Not So Sure That This White Girl Can Take The Heat That U Described. I've Heard That Dubai Is One Of The Least Racist Out Of The All The Middle Eastern Countries, So Ur Experience Speaks Volumes. I'm Canadian & I Absolutely Love It Up Here. I'm About An Hrs Drive Outta Toronto, So Anything U Could Ever Want Is Never Too Far Away. Don't Get To See The Borealis Lights From Here Tho But, I Definitely Would Recommend Them If U Ever Decide To Take A Trip North. I'd Come In The Summer Time Tho. I Wish U The Best Of Luck With The Rest Of Ur Travels!
They say it is better to come in the winter.. September is still summer for them so maybe go in December or January (September in Chicago is already cool out so I was shocked that it felt like 120 F 😂
Did you not do research on Dubai before you planned your trip?
Are you saying that she did something to disrespect their culture and that they didn't have any racial bias involved at the airport
Hi Beautiful, thanks for sharing your experience. What??? WEED; Oh Noo!😯🙁😟 So what's your next planned destination if you don't mind giving out that info.
Enjoyed watching and you have a new friend here in tune and watching. Have A Gagloria's Night!
Gagloria I believe we will use them again.. they also go to Thailand every year
So many countries will throw your ass in jail for weed and throw away the key. Don’t be stupid people.
Yes me tooo
That felt so bad
Hello. If you don’t mind me asking, How much did Destination Dubai charged for that package?
I think it was like $2600 per person.. but not sure
I cancel my plans for there no thanks for me I was planning it up til now.
Oh wait... don't cancel 😂 it was still an experience, just one I don't have to experience again 💀
It's a Muslim country, you have to cover up in mosques only. Nowhere else. People wear anything they want. Dubai is not hot, it's extremely humid. It's a desert after all. In winter weather is mild to cold. There's so much diversity in Dubai and with that comes many cultures with differing behaviours. The area you visited are mainly Asian sales people and they not the most sophisticated people on earth. They stare at all women and in your face kind of sales habits. Emiratis (UAE Nationals) generally keep to themselves in public. The customs guys don't only check blacks as you said yourself your friends that came through at another time did not have the same experience as you. Dubai is very strict on drugs as the US customs are. The last few years has been hectic with drug traffickers oing through their airports. It wasn't personal, I believe so. It was unfortunate that you had a bad experience which you believe was racially motivated, but I can assure you it happens in black countries to bkack women as well.
I don't think she meant customs only checks black people. She probably meant the majority of people getting searched were black. Almost the same scenario happened to me in Morocco.
She wanted you to give her a gift from your stuff. I have had this with an egyptian custom officer
And thank you for sharing your racial experience with me because I'm a particular about how people treat me and I probably wouldn't like it if I'm going to be treated badly for being black then I may as well just stay where I'm at
I'm white and don't want to go there. I just can't deal with their exploitation of workers from poor countries, the racism and human rights abuses even towards their own citizens and women. There have been too many troubling incidents throughout the years.
Who the hell told you that you had to cover up??? 😂😂😂🤣 my wife is from here and she doesn’t cover. Her mates from Kenya love it here they don’t suffer any racism either and they don’t cover at all they dress in skimpy dresses with no issues at all! Plus you state you stayed in the Marriott Marquis most women in there dress in short cut dresses. Also when you said you went to the city you went to is called Deira not old Dubai that’s full of Indians and Pakistanis not Arabs 🤣🤣🤣 plus you could have told them to get away from you and they would run with the fear of police coming to their shop. From watching your video I think you enjoyed it if you didn’t you wouldn’t come back. YOU DO NOT HAVE TO COVER UP THAT IS COMPLETELY NOT TRUE that is very misleading for viewers watching. If you go to a mosque it’s seen as disrespectful not to cover shoulders and knees that’s for both men and women.
Also you never come to Dubai between June and September. Again il say it again YOU DO NOT HAVE TO COVER IN THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES (Dubai).
Witnessed it with my own eyes... Girls were asked to go back up to their room to put on cover ups referring to swimsuits..they could not go to the pool party already in their swimsuits... I've never been anywhere where that's a problem... AGAIN, I shared my experience and that was at the Marquis so 🤷🏽♀️
@@ShareseNicole Who told you to go upstairs and cover up? The police? Someone of any legal standing? I’m asking this because I walk around in shorts no top on and my wife would walk in her bikini to the beach from hotel it’s so strange that someone said it to you guys. I believe you but I would love to know who told you as that’s crazy
@@stuartgrehan8382 You need to respect the culture and the religion.
@@dennykeaton9701 what are you talking about??
Sir, you are white and your wife is arab that's what I got from another comment of yours. The same rules don't apply to black people especially women. Most people in Dubai think black women there are prostitutes, which is far from the truth. Her experience is legit. I had friend dress provocatively after I and our mutual friend told her not to and she experienced maltreatment because of it. Black women definitely have to move different in Dubai. When I go I dress high class, so they assume I'm rich and I don't get approached in a weird way, but they definitely make assumptions based on your race.
Hi. One question:
Are you a student or have to work for a living? Or are just born rich and can afford jet set lifestyle? Thanks.
Working on being rich but definitely still work for a living 😂 we were on a payment plan paying for the trip.. the group that I went with had great payments options and I guess I’m spoiled because any other travels abroad, my dad has paid.. I think this trip was about $2100 per person (not including flight)
@@ShareseNicole Thank you Sharese. Nice dad good man. Rich country.
Like the other commenters said, other than the common sense that everyone knows about Dubai, clearly the research you did was lackluster or incorrect?
Clearly 😂
So the town your talking about is an old town all arabs left and indian guys probably work there you won't like find any emarati there working
I want to visit
It's def on a lot of people's bucket list
You'll probably have to come in winter
Roudha Alhajri I def agree!! I was sooo hot.. but it’s a beautiful city !
I'm planning on going to Thailand so hopefully it won't be like that
Are you going through the Destination group? I know they go there too
@@ShareseNicole oh I didn't know about the destination group what is that I was going with just me and my best friend since I don't know anyone who has been there
@@skyjacksonA1 the same group I used for Dubai also does a yearly trip to Thailand too.. They call it Destination Thailand lol I think ... Me and my friends were thinking about using them for that trip too because everything was so well organized on the Dubai trip
I went to Thailand solo before the worldwide lockdown last year and I had the time of my life! Two weeks was way too short in my opinion, I'd go longer if I could.
@@elodiei.5087 thank you... It's definitely on my bucket list
Must do homework before going to another country. Learn their customs
Are you implying that she did something wrong and there wasn't any racial bias involved at the airport search
I am telling you DONT GO TO DUBAI, DONT TAKE YOUR MONEY TO DUBAI
As a man I've visited the Dubai Gold Souk and they were very aggressive...even followed me for a bit....long story short, I'm stubborn, so I didn't buy ANYTHING! I'm supposed to be here for 3 years but um....I will say this though....no police harrassment here...no gun violence...no violence in general....I'm going to keep it positive for now.
Most Arab countries, especially in the souks, like to haggle
Sounds like y’all didn’t do any individual research before going 🤷♀️
Researched and watched other UA-cam videos before traveling… none of them prepared me for the racial profiling and aggressive behavior… also note this is just my experience I shouldn’t claim not friends felt the same way…
I've been to Dubai 3 times and about to go again in a few weeks. Will probably go back again next year also. I'm a black women and have NEVER experienced anything like what you mentioned. At the airport went thru without any issue, no one was staring at us. Felt comfortable everywhere we went even when we went to downtown Dubai (Bur Dubai & Deira) on the tram. We did Abu Dhabi Mosque (I covered up) & The Theme park you mentioned - That was good, won't do that again tho.
Went to all the Malls - no issues. I always carried a Pashmina with me to cover my shoulders but another reason was because the Malls were COLD, Lol and wore knee length shorts or a skirt. I saw people walking with bikini tops on!
This will be my first time travelling after Covid so I'm hoping all will be ok again and I don't experience what you went through.
Same here. Been there twice and going back in March.
Are you a lighten skin black or biracial? It can explain the difference in experience.
