I don't really understand the appeal of a hummer H2... The land cruisers are IMO much more cooler. Camel rides, sandboarding, henna tattoo, wear their clothes, dinner is free, but the camel ride is literally just a quick circle. You have to pay for a ATV and petting a falcon. It's worth it. I used groupon and it's only $50 a person.

You can't take the metro there but from dubai mall to the jumeriah beach it's only $5 taxi. The cell phone place is called Etisalat, you can't really miss it there all over the airport. Coverage is great. I went with a group so airbnb was cheaper but if you are soloing it or with 1 person hotel is good. Marina district is 40minutes below the dubai mall, near the palm island.

Taxi's dont rob you but just make sure the meter is on. It's so cheap anyway that even if they take the long way it'll be immaterial. You can board the metro right outside DXB airport. There's nothing but super expensive hotels in the dubai mall area I think though (Conrad, Armani, Ritz Carlton, Jumeriah, JW marriott etc)
