Highly recommended, do this! - We had a very competent guide who knew a lot about the history and origin of Dubai but also about the culture of the people, was very enlightening I must say. Have been to the markets in the old part of Dubai and crossed the creek with a boat.More than satisfied and can absolutely recommend it.

A perfect way to experience traditional Dubai - Well constructed tour taking in the older parts of Dubai giving an insight into how and why the futuristic City it now is has evolved. Our guide Abdullah found just the right balance between explaining the historic and cultural context and not overloading us with too many dates and names. Experiencing the traditional gold and spice souks was a perfect contrast to the malls & high rise buildings across town. Both the tour itself and our particular guide come highly recommended.

Amazing - Me and my friend had the Honor to have Sagheer Hassan as our guide and it was nothing less than memorable and mind blowing. From the history of Dubai to the millions of questions he made us feel so welcomed to ask. If there was a way to request a guide, I would tell you to request Hassan a million times over, his hospitality, kindness and overall care for his guest were unmatched. This made our first time in Dubai a dream. Thank you again Hassan, it was a pleasure to meet you and…Agli dafa milte hain!

Great experience with Mazhur - Communication before the tour and the pickup were both excellent. Our guide Mazhur gave us a fantastic tour and was very knowledgeable about the history of Dubai, the old town and the souks. I had a very enjoyable morning learning the history and culture of the people of Dubai. Thank you Mazhur.

Learning about Dubai - Communication and pickup was excellent. Abdulla our guide was so knowledgeable about the history of the old town. As we strolled along the streets his information was interesting and places we visited of great interest. Our third trip Dubai and we learnt so much more about this beautiful city and its people.

Uncomfortable experience as a solo female traveller - As a woman who came on the tour solo and by chance ended up being the only guest who booked that day, I didn’t feel comfortable throughout the experience due to my tour guide (Muhammad Mazher). Between his frequent touching of his crotch, leering at my body, and nose picking, I felt very uncomfortable. I would not recommend this tour to any other women travelling solo.
