It would be wrong to completely discourage tourists thinking about visiting this attraction. Of course, looking down from the starting platform is breathtaking. That’s why XLine is called entertainment for extreme sports enthusiasts.
XLine Dubai Marina perfectly fulfils its extreme role.
How scary it is to fly high above a huge city depends on the individual. Those who feel uncomfortable at heights, experience panic when flying, are afraid of climbing to high floors of buildings or do not approach balcony railings should refrain from taking the ride.
Most likely, flying on XLine Dubai Marina will not be enjoyable. However, extreme thrill seekers will enjoy the wind whistling past them and the feeling of flying like Superman or another Marvel superhero.
If you really want to try it but are still a little afraid of heights, experienced extreme sports enthusiasts recommend not approaching the railing at the starting point and not looking down. Not even once, no matter how tempting it may be! You can look ahead at the horizon, to the sides, at the organisers (they will understand and try to cheer you up and distract you), but not down. Then, on a subconscious level, there will be no fear blocking you, and consciously, you will understand that everything is fine and that you are here to overcome your fear and get an adrenaline rush.
As a last resort, you can close your eyes just before take-off. Five seconds after the start, open them so you don’t miss the most interesting part. By then, it will be too late to be afraid.
Excursions in the Dubai Marina area
You can combine a visit to the zip line with an excursion in the Dubai Marina area. Tourists love to walk around Dubai not only on their own, but also with a guided tour. The city has many interesting places that will impress travellers.
The guide will not only tell you about the amazing places in Dubai, but also show you the features hidden from the eyes of tourists. A visit to the Dubai Marina area is included in many sightseeing tours of the city. They are conducted both individually and in groups. Thanks to the rich programme, tourists will see everything.
The price of the XLine zip line in Dubai
The zip line in Dubai is quite an expensive attraction, with prices that are too high for tourists in the Emirates. The cost in 2025 will be 650 dirhams for adults and 499 dirhams for young thrill seekers. This is far from cheap, even by UAE standards. However, all tourists who have tried the attraction are unanimous in their opinion: the wealth of amazing impressions, the burst of energy and adrenaline that XLine Dubai Marina offers are worth every penny spent on it.
