How this calculator works
Flights use sourced return-fare ranges to Dubai per departure city from KAYAK, picked by season: September and October are usually the cheapest months, August and May (Gulf summer and Eid travel) the most expensive.
Visa: Indian passport holders need a UAE tourist visa arranged in advance through an airline or a licensed tourism company. The fee comes from HolidaySG's verified visa data.
Tourism Dirham: Dubai hotels charge AED 7–20 per room per night depending on star rating, paid at check-out. The calculator adds it for a five-night stay with two people sharing.
Hotel is per room per night for your travel style (two adults share a room). Food and transport are per person per day, and children under 12 count as half on the ground. Attractions you tick use live HolidaySG "from" prices. Everything is converted to rupees at HolidaySG's exchange rates; ranges are for planning, not quotes, and any figure not directly sourced is marked as an estimate.
