Here are reliable, affordable Dubai vacation planners (UAE-based and regional) that also offer visa support — plus quick notes on what they provide and practical tips so you can pick the best option.

Recommended affordable planners with visa support

• Musafir — budget-friendly combo packages (flight + hotel + visa) and stand‑alone Dubai/Sharjah tourist visas; offers express processing options. Good for package deals and low-cost visa handling. (in.Musafir.com)

• HolidayMe — regional OTA that sells Dubai holiday packages and often includes visa add‑ons and insurance (competitive pricing on short packages). (HolidayMe site for packages/visa assistance). (alrostamanitravel.ae)

• Rayna Tours — UAE-based operator with explicit visa services (document help, hotel booking, insurance, online application support). Good for group and family travel plus visa processing. (visas.raynatours.com)

• Al Rostamani Travel — established Dubai travel agency offering leisure packages and a visa concierge service; good local support and financing options. Useful if you prefer dealing with a UAE-based agent. (alrostamanitravel.ae)

• dnata Travel / Arabian Adventures — part of the Emirates/dnata group; offers packaged tours and end‑to‑end visa assistance (strong for guests flying with Emirates/partner airlines). Good for trustworthy, reliable service though sometimes slightly pricier. (dnatatravel.com)

How they usually handle visas

• Airline-sponsored visas: Emirates, Etihad and some carriers can arrange tourist entry permits for passengers when you book your flight with them (check eligibility and fees). (etihad.com)
• Travel‑agent/hotel sponsorship: Many agents and hotels will apply for your entry permit on your behalf once you book a package or hotel confirmation through them. Agents above explicitly list visa‑processing services. (in.Musafir.com)

Typical costs & processing times (examples)

• Prices vary by nationality, length and speed (standard vs express). Example Musafir listings show 14‑day tourist visas from around INR ₹7,499 (standard) and higher for express/instant options; processing can range from a few hours (instant) up to 5–7 working days for standard. Expect different rates if you apply from within UAE or from another country. (in.Musafir.com)

Practical tips to keep cost down and avoid delays

• Compare package vs standalone visa: sometimes a flight+hotel+visa combo is cheaper than adding a visa to an existing booking. (in.Musafir.com)
• Book early (especially for peak season) — express visas cost significantly more. (in.Musafir.com)
• Confirm document checklist before applying: passport copy, passport cover page (newer UAE guidance may require the passport cover copy), passport photo, confirmed return ticket and hotel booking. Requirements can change, so check current guidance before applying. (m.economictimes.com)
• If already in the UAE, use a UAE-based agent (Al Rostamani, Rayna, dnata) for faster local processing and better troubleshooting. (alrostamanitravel.ae)

Which to pick quickly

• Lowest-cost, packaged budget trips with visa included: Musafir and some HolidayMe combo deals. (in.Musafir.com)
• Best UAE-local support and visa concierge if you’re in the UAE: Al Rostamani Travel, Rayna Tours, dnata Travel. (alrostamanitravel.ae)

If you want, I can:

• Pull current live price comparisons for 2–3 planners (need your nationality, travel dates and whether you need express processing), or
• Check exact current visa requirements for your nationality and show the lowest-cost agent that can handle it.
