Tour Experience | AccessTravel

We had the most incredible and authentic experience with Nada! Not only was she very knowledgeable about the past, but also referred to the history and how it pertained to today’s culture and influence. We really understood more about how and why Dubai is a melting pot of the world. We are a family of 4 - a wheelchair user and child, included. Nada made sure the accommodations from the boat ride to the lunch restaurant were accessible. It was the perfect day in Dubai, and it still left us with plenty of time to enjoy all the other attractions the city has to offer!

My husband and I had the best day with Nada. We learnt so much about old Dubai, its history and culture and saw some fantastic places. Nada is absolutely lovely and so knowledgeable, it was such a pleasure spending time with her. We can’t recommend Nada enough, don’t hesitate, book the tour, honestly you won’t regret it!!

It was definitely a half day well spent! We saw a side of Dubai that we would never have imagined, such rich history and culture. Nada was brilliant! She knew exactly how/when to share interesting info, the tour was well planned out and we took the right number of stops at the right places. And the food at the end was great!I'd surely recommend this tour with Nada to all!

Nada is, quite simply, the best tour guide I've ever encountered. Two years ago, my wife and I booked a private tour of Old Dubai with her, and we loved every moment of it—the history, the cultural knowledge, the sights, the conversations with locals, and of course the food. We learned more in less time than I would have thought possible. This year, I held a team offsite in Dubai, and so decided to take the team (seven of us in all) on the same tour with Nada as a bit of cultural immersion into the city that was hosting us. Over and over again, I heard, "What an amazing end to the week!" I also heard, "Best offsite ever," and I suspect that Nada's tour had a lot to do with that. I can't recommend Nada highly enough. Seriously, she is a force of nature, a human dynamo, a deeply knowledgeable guide, and just an all-around great person.

My wife and I came to Dubai a few days early before joining our cruise. We didn’t know what to expect. Fortunately, we spent two wonderful days with Nada. She showed us both the modern and the old Dubai, the amazing architecture and the traditional. Nada was engaging, knowledgeable, and being well traveled herself, knew what it took t make our visit memorable. We highly recommend Nada.

Great tour. Nada was knowledgeable, pleasant and very good company. I felt like I learned a lot about Dubai’s history. Highly recommended.

Nada is consistently amazing. She knows everything and knows the ins and outs of every aspect of this city. This is our second tour with her. She helped us plan drivers to and from Abu Dhabi and helped us plan all aspects of our trip outside of Dubai. She's nothing short of amazing. Reach out to her for tours, she's worth every penny.

Nada is extremely knowledgeable and she is very personable. She answered our questions and knew exactly where to take us. We appreciated the private nature of the tour. She handled the private boat ride and the absolutely delicious lunch. We look forward to doing another tour again when we return to Dubai!

We had a wonderful learning experience with Nada showing us around Old Dubai, street & spice markets, and tasting local foods. I would highly recommend her, and look forward to wandering with Nada the next time I am in Dubai with my family.

You know it is a great tour when both parents and two teenagers say it was one of their favorite parts of their trip to Dubai! That is particularly high praise from our kids who typically bemoan "tours" as boring. Nada did an outstanding job of keeping things moving, being very informative, yet striking just the right balance of not too much and not too little. The pace was perfect, the information was very educational, and the experience overall was right on target. Two big highlights were the scent room (you learn a lot about the history of trade in ingredients tied to perfumes, incense, etc... very hands-on) and the markets (the spice market, in particular, was a hit... I think we bought 10 lbs of spices). Another unexpected highlight was the private lunch at a location you could walk by all day and never know was there... yet it was simply outstanding. The food, the service, the experience... it was all great. Final note - for perspective, we travel a lot. We've done tours around the world from St. Marks Square to The Galapagos Islands to Bejing. Nada ranks right up there as one of the best we have encountered. Thank you Nada for balancing out the skyscraper, waterpark, "extreme" everything parts of our trip to Dubai with a down-to-earth connection to the people and history of such an amazing city.
