Excellent tour of Dubai - opportunity to see some of the older parts of the city and markets. And time for shopping as well! Jaweira was an excellent guide and Badshah a great driver.

This was an excellent tour and great way to experience and learn more about old and new Dubai. The tour guide, Jaweria, was very knowledgeable, sharing her expertise every step of the way. She was also very thoughtful and friendly which made the experience very enjoyable. The driver, Badshah, was very professional and efficient. Highly recommend to those that have 3-4 hours and want to get a true feel for the city (plus some shopping opportunities). Thank you.

What a great get-to-know Dubai tour. Our guide, Asad, was very knowledgeable about the city and its history. He was also just a personable guy to be around. He offered valuable assistance in the markets. Our tour - with a visit to the Frame - lasted about half the day, which was perfect. We could explore a bit on our own in the afternoon. High marks.

Faisal was amazing! He picked us up from the airport & we started our tour with a quick rundown of what we expected to see. Faisal not only showed us around Dubai in 4 hours, he shared with us the history of the city and surrounding states, answering all of our questions. He fit so much into a short period of time and recommended a delicious local spot in the Old City and even fit in a lunch pickup for his two hungry passengers before taking us back to the airport! He was incredibly kind and thoughtful.

Chamil our guide and Tamin our driver made our tour great. Explained where we were going and the story about the place. We got to see everything we wanted to and more. So worth the money and much better than the Hop on Hop off

We had 21 hours in Dubai for a layover and this was the best way to see Dubai!! Our guide, Sumaira, was the best!! She told us such insightful information about Dubai, specific sights, the culture and history. She was the most valuable part of the tour!! Highly recommend this tour!!

This was by far one of the best tours I’ve been on during my travels. I can’t give Faisal enough praise for the time we spent together. He was informative, interactive, thoughtful and all around helpful. From no lines at burj khalifa to a private boat ride it was an amazing tour. All the way from the morning to the evening he gave me the history, the ins and outs of Dubai as well as seeing first hand from the new to old Dubai. While being there I was able to beat the crowds, get exclusive access and make great deals in the souk. Faisal is the man for all your needs and even better with showing you the real Dubai. 💯100/10 stars

The tour was amazing - thanks to our guide Faisal we did not only visit the sights, but also got good insights of Dubai and the culture. Our wish to stay longer in the old Dubai was also no problem. We can only highly recommend to do this tour!
