Here are some of the tips you have to follow if you are traveling solo to Dubai
1.   Dubai is mainly a Muslim country and a little conservative about Islamic culture. Dubai is somewhat liberal in its approach if you compare it with other Middle East countries. You have to keep some things in mind depending on where you travel. Suppose you are on the beach, then swimwear is completely ok. But once you are out of it, you have to cover up yourself immediately.
2.  When you enter a mosque, you need to be completely covered, including your head. The skimpy dressing can attract some attention on the road, if you are inside a mall or hotel, it should not be a problem.
3.    If you are visiting during the holy month of Ramadan, you should know that it is a very sacred time. So you need to respect the traditions and customs that surround it.
4.  Crimes rates in Dubai are zero to none in Dubai. But for safety, keep the emergency number handy. Numbers of the fire department, police, tourist security, and ambulance and air rescue should be available with you.
5.  You should know the traffic rules of Dubai because, in Dubai, the rules are very strict, and if you don’t have a Dubai driving license, then forget about driving, and not obeying traffic signals is a punishable offense, and hefty fine will be imposed.

You can use WhatsApp, check Google maps, search for a place, and much more with this facility. Do remember that no internet calls work there except for Skype. WhatsApp, FB messenger, and hangout calls are all blocked.
7.  Dubai is very much strict about this rule. Not only can you not buy alcohol from a shop without a liquor permit, but also you cannot drink in public.
8.  Taxis, buses and metros all are safe for a solo female traveler at any time of the day. if you know that you are traveling late, then it will be wiser to dress accordingly.
