1 Throw them out of a plane

A must-do for any adrenaline junkie, Skydive Dubai offers tandem skydives at two spectacular locations – over the iconic Palm Jumeirah, or out in the Arabian desert. Your loved one will freefall through Dubai’s skies at 120mph, safely strapped to an experienced instructor. You could also gift them a 20-minute private flight in a gyrocopter, where you soar over The Palm and past the Burj Al Arab in a unique two seater craft.

Dubai has no shortage of unforgettable dining experiences, but At.mosphere on the 122nd floor of the Burj Khalifa quite literally tops them all. Feel like a VIP as you look down on the city from your enviable vantage point, feasting on appropriately fancy foods like caviar and premium wagyu. Gift vouchers are available for lunch, dinner and afternoon tea, with special set menus for each that are sure to go down as well as those views.
